Why read it?
1 author picked Witch King as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I'm a fan of Wells' Murderbot series, but I've always been more of a fantasy reader, so I was excited to hear she had an epic fantasy coming out. Wells did not disappoint!
The story begins with a mystery. Powerful characters awaken after being laid low by treachery and don't know who did it to them. As they seek answers, we learn about their world's history and how they found their true family after it seemed they lost everything.Ā
I loved the inclusive cast, and the rich description of food, clothing, cultures, and geography.Ā I can't wait for a follow-up!
