Wintersteel by Will Wright (2020)

This book brings the Uncrowned King arc to a wonderful, crashing conclusion.

This is the 8th book in the series and, as I’m reading them one after another and then writing reviews about them, it’s hard to think of new things to say. But it must be even worse writing a series and yet the books keep getting better and better. The action scenes are sharp and snappy, the characters move in interesting ways and the world just keeps expanding. However it’s the epic moments that really strike me about this series and this book in particular. Every time a character says the name of their Path it’s followed by some of the hypest moments. The ending to this book is amazing and that’s because it’s been build up over at least three novels. The shear patience the author must have gone through is just amazing.

Look, I love the series and I think this might be my favourite novel in it (Though it’s currently in a heated battle with Reaper.) I just can’t praise it enough.
