The story follows Ilya, a ranger who can see ghosts, and Ashe, the crown prince who is leading his army in a war with a neighboring country. Writing is very good here, if you enjoyed Bloodraven as much as I did, this is more of a similar style of high fantasy world and plot weaving, but it veers more into drama and soap opera in the second two acts. It still has this author’s penchant for violence and angst however, so mind the tags. This one is a bit more vanilla in nature, a softer kind of slow build romance with fantasy wars and politics in the backdrop. It is the second book I have read by this author, whose book Bloodraven is one of my all time favourites.
