For generations, warlords fought bitterly for dominance in a land without a king, leaving a fractured, war-torn country plagued by thieves, slavers, and the servants of dark gods and darker magic.
Allystaire Coldbourne travels a treacherous path toward his Ordination as a holy knight of legend, a Paladin, a savior of the people. But to fulfill this role, he - and the unexpected allies he finds along the way - must face the demonic, sorcerous evil that stalks the land, the wrath of gods and men, and his own dark past.

Nice immediacy to the writing. Fun characters.
I subtracted a star from perfect as there is little overall arching plot that is resolved. In fact, there is a cliffhanger ending that Tom me completely by surprise as the story just ended at what seemed like a random point.
Entertaining. I look for are to the sequel.
Nice story, quality writing

Lately, many authors try to engage in non-stop action, right from the first page.
This story is different.
Rather than a start, then peaks and valleys in the action, suspense, tragedy, or whatever mechanism is being used, this story starts and then begins a slow, upward climb in the engagement. No OMG page turning, then a lull, and not a dullard, monotone plot. This slow, steady ramp-up of the plot is not common.
This means, like some reviewers have noted, the "beginning" feels like it goes on for awhile. However, that does not mean it is disengaging, just a different kind of pacing than most heroic tales. I've told others that it feels "slow", but I keep wanting to hear more.
This pacing is made more pronounced by the narration. First, between dialogue, it sounds like narration and the book's Narrator, sounds like a narrator while reading these sections. On the other hand, the Narrator does a great job voice acting the characters, especially the protagonist. Good job on this.
So, overall, 4 stars for everything. It is an interesting take on a common theme, which overall, was enjoyable for the ride.
Interesting version of a common theme...well done.

Amazing

The story is solid, from start to finish in this epic. You could read the books individually, but I wouldn't recommend it. This series should be read sequentially.
Particularly if you are looking for a warrior heavy fantasy read, this book is for you. There are elements of magic, but you'll find that this book is a good balance to the over-abundance of mage tales in the market these days.
