At Windsong’s End swept me into a world that feels both epic and intimate. The central pursuit, a dragon hunted not for treasure, but for vengeance, instantly grabbed me. That alone gives the story a fierce emotional core. When the narrative reveals that a ten year old girl is thrust onto a spearwell, a war machine, it immediately humanizes the grandeur. There’s weight here in every scene, a sense that this fantasy isn’t just about monsters and magic, it’s about legacy, grief, and the lengths people will go to reclaim themselves.

The writing style struck me as both confident and adventurous. Ramspott balances vivid, vivid imagery with quiet emotional beats. I could feel the tension in every turn of the spearwell’s mechanism and the potential in every moment of stillness. It reads as epic but not impersonal, characters live and breathe on the page, and the stakes feel personal, even when the world building is vast.

If I’m honest, one thing that had me pausing a bit was settling into the world’s mechanics and culture. It’s rich and detailed, which is wonderful but I did find myself wanting just a bit more anchoring early on to fully feel at home. Beyond that, I was fully invested.

I thoroughly and whole heartedly enjoyed every part of this book. I can’t hardly wait for the next book. I’m curious to see where Evan Ramspott takes us, because I’m going to be here for all of it. The world building and character development were both totally amazing.

I highly recommend giving this book a go.

Thank you to NetGalley, Storyteller Press and Evan Ramspott, for sharing this ARC with me in exchange for my honest review.
