Myrren's Gift
Myrren's Gift | Fiona Mcintosh
6 posts | 9 read | 6 to read
For the sake of an imperiled kingdom, the line between "traitor"and "savior" must blur . . . and vanish.Though barely a teenager, Wyl Thirsk must now assume the role he has been destined for since birth: commander of the Morgravian army -- an awesome responsibility that calls him to the royal palace of the crown prince Celimus. Already a cruel despot who delights in the suffering of others, Celimus enjoys forcing his new general to witness his depraved "entertainments." But a kindness to a condemned witch in her final, agonizing hours earns young Thirsk a miraculous bequest, while inflaming the wrath of his liege lord.With war looming in the north, Wyl must obey Celimus's treacherous dictates and undertake a suicidal journey to an enemy court -- armed with a mysterious power that could prove both boon and curse. For unless he accepts Myrren's gift, it will surely destroy him . . . and the land he must defend.

I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new - don‘t judge me I have a lot of books.
Join the fun if you want. This is day 36.

It doesn't look much, but this book is more that 650 pages long. And to be honest, it feels.
I read it years ago and imposed on myself to get to the end, but the pace was so slow, many episodes dragged, l didn't really connect to the main character and l'm afraid l foresaw how the trilogy would end.
Never read the other in the series.

I have less than 200 pages to go but Myrren's Gift is taking some effort to finish! at 600+ pages each I don't think I'll be reading the following two books of The Quickening, but I've come too far to give up on this one now.

As the first book in a long time that I've pulled off a shelf having never heard of it before or been told to read it, I'm enjoying this one so far. The writing is not brilliant but I'm really drawn by the characters.
