Genre - Fantasy

This is the beginning of a wonderful science fiction fantasy novel. It takes place in a medieval time with swords, knights and gallantry. Yet its also very very dark at times, totally character driven each chapter flows from one to the other you love them or hate them and sometimes they die. You could say its like the Sapronos during the dark ages where the winters are very long and the summers short, it starts with an ancient darkness rising beyond the wall that will threaten the very civilization whilst they fight amongst themselves for kingship this involves murder, betrayal, incest!!

Be warned you will not be able to put this book down, especially if you wanting to be transported on these cold winter nights.

I recommend it to teenagers as well.
