A great epic fantasy!

Once again Michael hits it out of the park. While not completely breaking traditional tropes, he still adds enough of a spin that it feels fresh. He also writes some of the best female protagonists that I've read.

I love the arc of telling a prequel story about what eventually becomes legend in the earlier stories of Riyria. It makes me want to reread the Riyria books again with this new perspective. The only down side is having to wait for the next one.
