Malice by John Gwynne. I’m a sucker for the chosen one/coming of age type story, particularly in a fantasy setting. I’ve read two dozen or more, probably many more, but am always on the lookout for a new hero to faithfully follow. Malice, by John Gwynne, introduces several possibilities.

The rumours are just that, though, stories covering a darker threat and poor young Brandywine falls out of his cupsContinueContinue reading “Review: The Loathly Lady”
