Some stories, like BOAT, are written well enough that you forget you're reading--you're simply lost in the story. My favorite line: "...he knew fear had the tighter grip. It had him, too, he just couldn’t let her know it." I'm ready for the whole book!
Flintlock epic fantasy that’s a bit dark without going all grimdark. A condemned witch and a traumatized soldier on the run refuse to become the pawns of dead gods who want to murder their parents and a living sword with dreams of genocide.
