Publisher's Summary

Every oath holds power.

In a land where the Earth spawns terrible beasts capable of moving through all but stone, the Sky bestows power to those bound by Oaths.

As earthbound creatures invade, bringing with them chaos and whispers of a coming war, protector and Overseer Tehran fights to keep his people safe. After losing his best friend to the beasts and with the stability of the region deteriorating, Tehran heads to the Capital to plead for support from the Order of the Sky.

When his friend’s widow stows aboard the transport, determined to hold the Order accountable for the death of her husband, Tehran’s plans are derailed. Torn between upholding his responsibility as an Overseer or honouring his friend’s memory, Tehran must either choose the Oaths that have forged him or trust new bonds to guard the fate of the Mercurial.

Excellent science-fantasy!

A terrific novel that perfectly blends science fiction and fantasy together. At the surface level it feels like Dune meshed with the Stormlight Archive with a Twilight like romance (I don’t know romance at all lol but that’s the only thing I could think of sorry not sorry)

There’s some epic action sequences, intense monsters, wild technology/ magic, intriguing politics, exploration of grief and bonds, it’s pretty much got it all. The only thing I wasn’t as invested in was the romance aspect, but that’s honestly just a personal preference and whilst it plays a dominant role in the story it never really overstayed its welcome. Also, the way it was handled was really well done and was more a result of a specific (and quite interesting) plot device rather than just a simple love story.

The narrator, Magnus, was fantastic! I think this is a great book regardless if you enjoy science-fiction, fantasy, romantasy or anything else. I really look forward to the conclusion of the duology, I have a feeling it’s going to be quite epic!
