VAELIN AL SORNA RETURNSAnthony Ryan’s debut novel Blood Song—the first book of the Raven’s Shadow series—took the fantasy world by storm. Now, he continues that saga with The Wolf’s Call, which begins a thrilling new story of razor-sharp action and epic adventure.Peace never lasts.
Vaelin Al Sorna is a living legend, his name known across the Realm. It
was his leadership that overthrew empires, his blade that won
hard-fought battles – and his sacrifice that defeated an evil more
terrifying than anything the world had ever seen. He won titles aplenty,
only to cast aside his earned glory for a quiet life in the Realm’s
northern reaches. Yet whispers have come from across the sea –
rumours of an army called the Steel Horde, led by a man who believes
himself a god. Vaelin has no wish to fight another war, but when he
learns that Sherin, the woman he lost long ago, has fallen into the
Horde’s grasp, he resolves to confront this powerful new threat.
To this end, Vaelin travels to the realms of the Merchant Kings, a land
ruled by honor and intrigue. There, as the drums of war thunder across
kingdoms riven by conflict, Vaelin learns a terrible truth: that there
are some battles that even he may not be strong enough to win.
**Review
Praise for The Wolf’s Call“Though the book is
characterized by breakneck pacing, deeply developed characters, and
impressively intricate plotlines, it’s Ryan’s subtle focus on vivid
worldbuilding (particularly on varied sensory descriptions) that makes
this such an immersive read…Readers who enjoy their fantasy fast and
furious will find Ryan’s latest to be an immensely satisfying, top-notch
adventure fantasy.” –Kirkus Reviews “Features
everything that we’ve come to love in Ryan’s books…from well-crafted and
fascinating characters to a masterfully established world…The Wolf’s Call is everything a fantasy fan could ever wish for.”—Booknest.eu Praise for the Raven’s Shadow novels
“Fans of broadscale epic fantasy along the lines of Robert Jordan’s
Wheel of Time series and George R. R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire
novels should find this debut much to their liking.”–Library Journal “[Blood Song]
certainly has it all: great coming-of-age tale, compelling character
and a fast-paced plot. If [Ryan’s] first book is any indication of
things to come, then all fantasy readers should rejoice.”–Michael J.
Sullivan, author of the Riyria Revelations series “Ryan hits
all the high notes of epic fantasy–a gritty setting, ancient magics,
ruthless intrigue, divided loyalties and bloody action.”–Publishers Weekly “A top contender for most impressive debut of the year…A thick, meaty novel of substance…A powerful epic.”–SFFWorld.com “Heroic epic fantasy.”–Fantasy Book Critic “A page-turner.”–Booklist
