WOW - Devney Perry hit it out of the park with Shield of Sparrows. It only took me until page 38 to be completely wrapped up in the world building, the characters, and the setting. Only a couple of chapters in and I was formulating theories and ideas for where the plot would take us and I was not prepared for where Perry took us - the little easter eggs throughout created questions, answered some, and created more which is the perfect setup for the series.

Any time something is compared to Witcher, I'm ready to dive in head first and the comparison is entirely accurate. The world was rich, dangerous, and the creatures were frightening and unique (I love Faze so much and I hope we see him even more in the sequel).

When I am nothing but dust and ash, Turah will endure. I do not need a crown. And I have made peace with my destiny. But before I step into my grave, my choice is you.
