This is, without a doubt, my favorite series of the year. The only story that comes close for me, though it is very different, is the Sun Eater series by Christopher Ruocchio if you would like an example of my reading tastes. Both of these series have compelled me to keep reading more than any others over the last couple years. The Riverfall Chronicles is compelling from the first line of The Wickwire Watch. As the story has progressed the depth of the characters and the world has grown. These characters now feel like family to me. The world feels like a home of sorts. Jacquelyn Hagen's story has made me feel the full range of emotions. The pacing is just right. There is action but there is also time to sit with the characters and grow to understand their motivations and connections to one another. I feel, at its heart, this is primarily a tale driven by the revelations of its mysteries, both in the world and its characters. If you are looking for a new world to get lost in, you will find none better than this one. If you are an audiobook listener, the narrator is excellent. The audiobook is my preferred way to engage with this story. I will be patiently waiting for the next installment so I can return to this home away from home again.
