This is a truly an epic fantasy. The world building is great and the diversity of characters is well presented and shown with how they think, act and speak.
It's a great cross between a DND campaign and Lord of the Rings style, as it focusses on a group of differing individuals with varying skills and abilities forced to band together and work towards common goals, with all the action, adventure, mystery and character conflicts that come along with it.

It has morally grey characters so it isn't your typical good v evil plot, it's more interesting with them being reluctant heroes with differing beliefs and their own goals.
With lizard people, mages, assassin's, vampires, dwarves, rakken, cultists and more, this story certainly will keep you entertained.

The switch up in chapter POV helps you learn more about each of the 5 MC too, and the story has plenty of intrigue, subplots and mystery, and keeps you hooked from start to finish.
It does end on a cliffhanger, but book 2 comes out in November so looking forward to reading the next sequence of adventures!
