OMG, let me tell you about “His Face is the Sun” – it’s one of those books that starts slow but ends with a total bang! At first, I was kind of wondering where the story was going. Four main characters in a divided desert kingdom with an mysterious pharaoh and ancient evil? Sounds cool, but it took me a minute to get into the groove. But once I did? I was all in.
The last quarter of the book is where things get seriously wild. Plot twists start flying, the characters’ connections get super intense, and I could not put it down. If you’re into fantasy with a historical vibe and can hang with a bit of a slow start, this book is totally worth it. The payoff is chef’s kiss. Be sure to look out for its release in early May!
