The Deathless
The Deathless | Peter Newman
1 post | 1 read | 5 to read
From one of fantasy's biggest recent breakthrough authors comes an exciting, brand new series. The demons... In the endless forests of the Wild, humanity scratches a living by the side of the great Godroads, paths of crystal that provide safe passage and hold back the infernal tide. Creatures lurk within the trees, watching, and plucking those who stray too far from safety. The Deathless... In crystal castles held aloft on magical currents, seven timeless royal families reign, protecting humanity from the spread of the Wild and its demons. Born and reborn into flawless bodies, the Deathless are as immortal as the precious stones from which they take their names. For generations a fragile balance has held. And the damned... House Sapphire, one of the ancient Deathless families, is riven by suspicion and madness. Whole villages are disappearing as the hunting expeditions holding the Wild at bay begin to fail. Then, when assassins strike, House Sapphire shatters. Nothing lasts forever. The Deathless is the first novel in an astonishing new series from Gemmell award-winning author Peter Newman.

I am horribly behind my #mountTBR challenge, I need to read 22 books of my 2018 TBR. The new ones I have been waiting for are currently waiting on the shelf and judging silently. BUT! I am so happy I finally read this. It was a good fantasy with an interesting premise, not too complicated, the enemy the Wild is old, but on top there is a layer of political scheming. It's very forward, and the story progressed almost a bit too fast.
