Community Rating
Description
An assassin bearing the mark of a weredragon hunts down a prince. An orc deserts her army, chased by phantoms from her past. A princess has a covert affair and must navigate the marriage her father is arranging. A necromancer reaps souls and slowly grows his profane army. A king wishes to secure his legacy and prepares for war. A coven of witches must decide where they fit--or if they ever could--in a changing political landscape.These are but a few of the twisted threads that unravel in The Land of Many Kings, a high fantasy, sword-and-sorcery epic filled with romance and lyricism. Stories both sweeping and intimate develop side-by-side, some coming together, others running in parallel while a diverse cast provides a wide range of compelling perspectives. Literary in tone, it is punctuated with action, adventure, and spectacle.

- TechmanRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Very well written, with interesting sympathetic characters and a fascinating world. Perfect grammar, engaging plot.
After reading the synopsis I was afraid it would be hard to keep track of all the different plot threads, but the author weaves and intertwines them together so well that it's easy to follow.
You should definitely give this a read. - CourtJessterRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0I don't think anyone will debate whether this is well written - it clearly is. The synopsis blurb tells you pretty much exactly what to expect so I won't go into that.
However, the nature of the way the stories are told (short chapters, and half a dozen simultaneous threads with their own characters) doesn't really lend itself to being read a chapter or two at a time. By this, I mean, there is a lot going on, there are a lot of characters. If I am going to actually get to know them all, and emotionally invest in the characters, binging a lot of chapters is going to be the only way.
For me, I am going to favourite this / put a pin in it, until it has more content.
