Über diesen Titel
An immersive and ambitious new series from the Aurealis Award-winning author of A Crucible of Souls.
A corrupted power stirs from beyond the grave.
A sacred order of knights sworn to protect the world from evil.
The Necromancer Queen will rise again.
Seventeen years have passed since the Necromancer Queen Talia was overthrown and slain, and her capital city destroyed by the Knights of the Order of Eternal Vigilance.
Anskar DeVantte, raised in the sacred disciplines of the Order, is now ready to face the brutal initiation trials to become a consecrated knight-sorcerer.
But the further Anskar rises in the ranks the more his faith wavers, and he is beset by harrowing dreams and uncertainty. As troubling powers awaken within him, a schism grows between Anskar and his hallowed Order, and he draws the hungry gaze of the vanquished queen’s fanatical followers.
As Anskar pieces together the mysteries of his early life, and begins to understand the malevolent forces gathering in his path, he finds himself with a crucial choice to make: Remain loyal to the Order’s righteous mission, or control the dark powers growing within him.
Either way, his destiny is steeped in war. The only question is, which side will he be on?

Dark Coming of Age Fantasy
I loved Hogans Sorcery Ascendant series, and also the SciFi Crime mystery Inquisitor, so I was very excited to see this new series!
It is a bit darker than the first series, but not fully grimdark.
This book has a great mix of mystery, plenty of magic, adventures, , politics, friendships and something I especially enjoy: we get to accompany the main characters on a series of tests that include sword smithing for example.
The characters in this one drew me right in and I was happy to spend my time with them. At times they can be a bit tropey, but overall they were unique enough and kept growing into themselves. I enjoyed the mix of different personalities, races and talents and was quite hooked by their fates!
Another big plus for me was how there is no clear good or bad side - there's two sides to an ongoing conflict, and somehow you root for both or neither of them. I always enjoy the shades of grey much more than pure black and white stories.
The prose was quick and fluent and kept itself in teh background so you could fully dive into this new world and story.
The plot has a really nice mystery and coming with that some twists along the way that kept me on my toes while reading, and I am happy to say I didn't see all of them coming!
I personally could have done with less sex, as those scenes simply bore me, but they were mercifully short and there was much less of it in the second half.
All in all this was a really enjoyable and entertaining read, and I will definitely pick up the sequel as soon as it is out!

Great voice but mediocre story at best
What can I say, I didn’t like the story. There was little suspense, none of the main characters had some kind of appeal to me and worst of all are the decisions made by said characters.
Usually I simply don’t get why a character suddenly decides to do sth out of the blue or why someone would think „hah, yeah that’s a real nice guy/gal we should follow his or her wishes“…
On top of that most of the story is very much twist-free and can be anticipated a mile away.
If you have too much time as well as money: go for it, otherwise there are a ton of better books out there in my opinion.
