Zaanen, and Drustan Wahrin 'Axis' were the two great wizards that help mortals defeat the deadly Greys years ago. Something happened to Zaanen. He became consumed with the need for power and turned to the God of Death, making him the world's greatest enemy. Axis defeated him once but now a new hero must rise to save the world from Zaanen.

Lord Rowan Everleigh was considered the greatest warrior of the world after he defeated a dragon. All he wanted was to live a quiet life with his beloved wife and daughter, which he did for twenty years.

Damien Valsguard was an orphan taken in by King Simeon, Valsguard's conqueror. He was raised alongside the prince who became his best friend. He's a fierce warrior, a leader and a role model.

Russam is a pirate, who's chases after the treasure that drove his father mad and drives him to find the greatest warrior in the world.

Isabella is Lord Rowan's daughter, she never knew about his past but all is revealed when the King's Guard comes looking for her father. Her father isn't the only one keeping secrets.

This first story in the Loro Chronicles will introduce all of the main characters and their pasts that made them who they are today. Each has their own mini story before Fate drives them together to begin their quest, whether they want to or not. Each has a role to play in this epic fantasy.

I enjoy epic fantasies and this started out interesting but became too predictable and annoying when the characters made stupid choices.

i enjoyed reading this, it was a great scifi read and had a interesting storyline. It was a fun read with great characters. i look forward to reading more in this series and from the author.

thanks to netgalley and the publisher for providing me with the digital arc in exchange for an honest review.

this book set out to be great and i was loving the world and the effort that went into it but it lacked in many ways i can't overlook. the action seems were rushed and the dialogue was static at parts, i needed more from the characters and their arcs. i also felt the pacing was a bit weird and felt off to me many times that i had to put the book down many times because of how it took me out of the story. i think it would have been better if the execution was more thought-out and creative. however, still a very good read!
