About the book
Wallie Smith is dying when a goddess saves his soul—and gives him a new body, a legendary sword, and a mission that will test the limits of faith and courage. Reborn in a world ruled by magic and gods, Wallie becomes the reluctant champion of the Goddess of Wisdom, sworn to stand against the armies of the Fire God and the sorcerers who serve him.
But even divine power comes with a price. In this strange land of priests and warriors, miracles and betrayal, Wallie must learn to wield more than his blade—he must find the wisdom to lead, to fight, and to survive.
Dave Duncan’s The Coming of Wisdom is a sweeping tale of destiny, divine conflict, and one mortal’s rise to legend.

The Witch Roads
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Fantasy Adventure · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
In The Witch Roads by Kate Elliott (4.5 out of 5 stars), a former child slave turned courier must guide an arrogant prince through haunted lands after dark magic changes him forever. Sharp, immersive, and richly imagined, this epic fantasy begins a duology of power, class, and courage from the acclaimed author of Crown of Stars.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Elen was born to serve and survive. Once a child slave used to absorb deadly poisons for nobles, she’s now a deputy courier in the harsh hills of Orledder Halt—competent, cheerful, and invisible to those who matter. When an arrogant prince and his retinue become stranded amid deadly political intrigue, she’s ordered to guide them to safety.
But the prince ignores her warning to stay clear of the haunted Spires, and the man who returns is not the one who entered. Something ancient has changed him, and the path ahead grows darker with every mile.
In The Witch Roads, Kate Elliott weaves a gripping tale of class, corruption, and survival where courage defies power—and the road itself may not want them to leave alive.

Legends rarely return in the form people hope for, and peace rarely survives the truths buried beneath it.
The Last Vigilant
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Fantasy Adventure · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Legends rarely return in the form people hope for, and peace rarely survives the truths buried beneath it. When outcast soldier Holt Hawley is sent to find a long-lost Vigilant, he instead finds an aging wizard and a conspiracy that reaches far beyond one missing child. The Last Vigilant fits an epic fantasy list with its myth-soaked world, political tension, and pairing of damaged, reluctant heroes facing an old darkness that may be waking again.

About the book
An out-of-practice wizard and an outcast soldier are thrust into the heart of a mystery that threatens to unravel their kingdom's fragile peace in this gripping epic fantasy from a standout new voice.
"A wonderful tale set within a well-drawn fantastical world. I loved it." — John Gwynne, New York Times bestselling author
"A page-turning mix of mystery and epic fantasy.” — Anthony Ryan, New York Times bestselling author
"This book crawled out of the deepest, darkest woods with violence in its heart." — Jackson Ford, author of The Bone Raiders
War between once-peaceful nations is on the horizon, and the child of a powerful ally is missing. Now Holt Hawley, an outcast soldier, has been sent to find a myth: a Vigilant, one of the last survivors of an ancient and powerful order whose magic could be key to finding the child. But the Vigilants disappeared long ago. No one truly expects him to succeed.
Then, in a fabled forest, he stumbles upon a woman who claims to be the last Vigilant. Enelda Drake is wizened and out of practice, and she seems a far cry from the heroes of legend. But they will need her powers, and each other, to survive. For nothing in their kingdom is as it seems. Corrupt soldiers and calculating politicians thwart their efforts at every turn.
And there are dark whispers on the wind, threatening the arrival of a primordial and powerful enemy. The Vigilant is not the only myth returning from the dead.
The Last Vigilant begins an epic fantasy trilogy where legends are forged and reforged, where the line between ally and enemy is razor thin, and where the only people holding the darkness of monsters and men at bay are the few who choose to stand fast.

The Book of Jhereg
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Steven Brust’s The Book of Jhereg brings together the first three adventures of Vlad Taltos, the assassin with a sharp tongue and a dragon-like sidekick. A fantasy classic praised for its wit, action, and intrigue, this omnibus carries a 4.6 out of 5 stars Amazon rating. Perfect for fans of snarky antiheroes and clever, fast-paced worldbuilding.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Meet Vlad Taltos, an assassin with more sarcasm than sense and a knack for finding trouble in every corner of the Empire. With his dragon-like familiar at his side, Vlad navigates the underworld of sorcery, crime, and politics, one dangerous contract at a time.
In Jhereg, his first job as a crime boss’s enforcer goes wildly off script. Yendi pits him against rivals who might just be smarter than he is. And in Teckla, he discovers that revolution is messy, especially when it drags friends and loyalties into the fight.
Collected in one volume, The Book of Jhereg captures Vlad at his sharp-tongued, blade-swinging best.
The question isn’t whether he’ll get out alive—it’s how much havoc he’ll cause along the way.

About the book
The first in the exhilarating British Fantasy Award-nominated Copper Cat Trilogy. Epic fantasy for fans of Robin Hobb and Jay Kristoff's Nevernight series.
'A fast-paced and original new voice in heroic fantasy' Adrian Tchaikovsky , author of Children of Time
There are some tall stories about the caverns beneath the Citadel - about magic and mages and monsters and gods.
Wydrin of Crosshaven has heard them all, but she's spent long enough trawling caverns and taverns with her companion Sir Sebastian to learn that there's no money to be made in chasing rumours.
But then a crippled nobleman with a dead man's name offers them a job: exploring the Citadel's darkest depths. It sounds like just another quest with gold and adventure ... if they're lucky, they might even have a tale of their own to tell once it's over.
These reckless adventurers will soon learn that sometimes there is truth in rumour. Sometimes a story can save your life.
