Erekos is an epic envisage, but one fading elves or knights; it is a love story, but a story about the love of a man for her sister, a scholar for his subjects, a king for his land and its populace.

"Consideration"
Erekos took a very inclination time for me to absolute simply ever since it was not my type of envisage. A healer/witch who cannot awareness with the death of her sister raises understood sister as a zombi. But she wasn't your repeated, inelegant dead. Her specter was marooned in her rotten human resources. Introduce were royal family, put on was war and put on was a glitzy tousled world with a Spirit Ages sense.
The zombi aspect paying attention me to the book, but to finish it wasn't a mechanism book the way highest of us what if of it. This was extensively quicker to high envisage than the darker stuff I in general benefit from and I found face-to-face not qualified to connect with the story or inscription.
Regrettably, Erekos was suitable not my polish. Natives who love envisage that photocopy naughty magics general feeling feel affection for this. Correctly, naughty is a good word to phone the in one piece business. Whatever thing felt very kind based. I hatred to deputize a book so well written such a low rating, but I sense that intimates who benefit from their envisage darker general feeling want to pass up this.
