Description

Let me tell you a story

A story about a beautiful song

And those who sing it

Alright, time for the real synopsis:

Song of the Unborn takes place in a bleak and dark universe. The world is broken and unbalanced. Dark creatures roam the lands and the order that once existed as a beacon of hope has crumbled.

Kalosýni is one of people who live in this cursed world, but thanks to the efforts of his father, he led a sheltered life.

However, an unexpected cry on a seemingly normal night leads to a journey that will lead Kalos, his father and a pregnant woman on a journey across the kingdom of Faacri.

UPDATE FOR BOOK 2 (Warning!!! Spoilers ahead.)

Book 2, or Throne of the Lords kicks off right where we left off.

A dark figure is claiming to be the dark lord, one prophesied to be the bringer of the apocalypse has appeared.

But is there truth to the prophecy and how will Kalos, Raymond and company react to all this?

The Song of the Unborn is a neat little story about an absurdly powerful young adult discovering his powers while going on an adventure with his dad. The story itself is pretty fun if you enjoy reading about OP protagonists, but if you prefer weak-to-strong progression this is definitely not for you.
There is also notable grammatical flaws present throughout the story, with the occasional awkward sentence here or typo there, but they become less frequent as the story progresses. I didn't personally find them to be enough to disrupt the flow of reading but it was often enough to subtract a star.
Great job on the story so far, looking to read more!

For what I've read so far this is a compelling book , it's lore draws you in and keeps you wanting to learn more . The main characters have strong personalities that you can easily tell apart without any confusion. I especially like Peeta and how he was introduced and how he grows with the group and another favorite is Crimwal and to be honest I find the way the author treated him through the chapters I've read . The only side chapters I liked and still do was the story of Romulus and his adventures where a nice way to introduce some key elements. I enjoy their victories and feel saddened by their loses . The author did a great job in making fall in love with this characters but he also quickly reminds you of what type of book this book is , dark fantasy, and you are reminded time and time again that things are not all rainbows and unicorn magic . It's theme is dark and even the light hearted moments are clouded in that darkness. The side chapters I've read about the secondary characters I fell weren’t needed because though he wrote them to be compelling I could care less but that's just my opinion. The world isn't to big so its easy to understand and follow . The main antagonists is a real heart attack inducer and it's clear that the author wrote to invoke those uneasy feelings . I believe by the time I finish this book my brain will be filled with more questions and also frustration. Too many times have I wanted to give up and not because of the story but because of what the author wrote ( you too will learn why) . I hope the author continues down this path of writing because it ignites great feelings and I can't wait to read the final chapter.
