This is a fantastic grimdark debut!!!

This book follows Blackwing Captain Ryhalt Galharrow and his band of misfits as they patrol the Range and protect Valengrad from the horrors that live in the Misery.

The Misery is a remnant of the war between The Nameless and the Deep Kings that ended a century ago. The Misery is a dead land, tainted by long ago magic. The only things that thrive there are unnatural and evil. Crowfoot created the Misery, and Nall created his engine to drive the Deep Kings back. It worked. After seeing the devastation caused by Nall's engine, the Deep Kings have stayed out of range. But they are not gone. They are waiting.

Galharrow is an agent of Crowfoot. Although he's had no orders for years now, he keeps patrolling, and rooting out the creatures that have slipped through. He's starting to believe that he is free of Crowfoot until the bird tattooed on his arm bursts free with a message. He is to find Lady Ezabeth Tanza and protect her at all costs.

The Deep Kings are coming.

I absolutely loved this book!! I loved the magic of the Spinners, and the world was interesting. The characters are awesome. I loved them all, but Galharrow and Ezabeth are my faves. And Nenn and Tnota. Just all of them!

If you like grimdark, you have to read this book. I'm kind of glad I waited to read it because Ravencry will be out on June 18th. YAY!!!
