I’ve only recently gotten into high fantasy so I’m glad to say that I really, really enjoyed a lot of the book! It definitely had a GRACELING sort of feel for me, which really makes sense since GRACELING was one of the first high fantasy books I’ve ever really read and enjoyed. Okay, well it was for a little bit when there were so many foreign words/jargon that I got overwhelmed for a little while in the beginning and it prevented me from remembering all of the different regions and the names of the characters.
I was really hesitant to read this book at first, mostly because I find myself not connecting with a lot of foreign settings (most specifically Asian settings for some reason - Maybe because I don’t know a lot about the culture and the language?) so I was so glad that it didn’t seem to be a hinderance with PROPHECY. Intrigue and mystery, ancient lore and action-packed fantasy come together in this heart-stopping first book in a trilogy.įirstly, I want to say that I probably wouldn’t have picked up this book if I hadn’t won it from the giveaway hosted by Jamie & Epic Reads so a big thank you to them for that! With only the guidance of the cryptic prophecy, Kira must battle demon soldiers, evil shaman, and the Demon Lord himself to find what was once lost and raise a prince into a king. He may be the savior predicted in the Dragon King Prophecy, but the missing treasure of myth may be the true key.
Murdered kings and discovered traitors point to a demon invasion, sending Kira on the run with the young prince. She’s a demon slayer and an outcast, hated by nearly everyone in her home city of Hansong. Kira’s the only female in the king’s army, and the prince’s bodyguard.
The greatest warrior in all of the Seven Kingdoms. Find it on the web: Buy from Amazon // Goodreads Date Completed: January 1, 2013
