I would highly recommend any fans of fantasy to check this series out. Havent enjoyed a series this much since Kingkiller Chronicles. There are 2 books out so far with book 3 being released soon. book 1 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28385685-free-the-darkness book 2 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28790025-reign-of-madness
Thank you, sir. It's on my list now. I've seen it pop up like three times since I saw this post and put it on my list.
Finished Book 1 and started book 2. Really enjoyed it. Spoiler I'm not sure if I'm turned off by how "invincible" Rezkin appears to be, and his apparent ability to just be a master at everything. It's almost like there's no suspense for how he gets out of a problem because he just casually is like "yea I'm a master at this skill so fuck it this is easy." Either way, I don't know who or what he is yet, so I guess I'll withhold judgment on that for now.
New book came out and it's on my list, but I'm working my way through Oathbreaker right now, so it might be a little while.
