It couples fantasy with politics and the
struggle for the power. It is split narrative
and tells this epic tale from many different
perspectives.
It is set in a society that is split into factions
based on their beliefs. It cleverly portrays
the nature of the humanity and war. It is an
exciting read because it is set in the future
so you have to get your head around the
new setting expanding your imagination in
the process.
