The first book in the Dragonoak trilogy, The Complete History of Kastelir—After being exiled to the farmland around her village, Rowan Northwood takes the only chance at freedom she might ever get: she runs away with a passing Knight and doesn't look back. The woman cares nothing for Rowan's company, yet she’s the first person who isn’t repulsed by the powers that burn within her.Rowan soon learns that the scope of their journey is more than a desperate grasp at adventure. She breaks away from the weighty judgement of her village and has no choice but to abandon her kingdom altogether. Sir Ightham's past takes them to Kastelir, a young country draped in the shadow of its long-dead queen: a woman who was all tusks and claws and great, spiralling horns. Hiding her necromancy is no longer Rowan's greatest challenge, and what hounds them across Kingdoms and through mountains is already fifteen-hundred years in the making.*The Complete History of Kastelir is the first book in a trilogy, following a necromancer, an exiled knight, and a pane. From knights to dragons, necromancy guides the story in this slow-paced, character-driven novel, with plenty of lesbian romance throughout. All three books in the trilogy are now available: The Complete History of Kastelir, The Sky Beneath the Sun, and Gall and Wormwood.
Feb 21, 2017 Review. This is book 1 in a LGBT epic fantasy series. I read the first two books in this series, a while ago. I have impatiently been waiting, for over a year, for the 3rd and finale book to come out. With book 3 releasing on Feb 23rd, I thought I should re-read this series to refresh my memory, and see if I still loved it. The short answer is yes. This is the one series, I seem to measure all other lesfic fantasy by. I started to think maybe I built these books up more in my head,
This book knows what you want. What you want is gay ladies in fantasy settings, and it is more than willing to give it to you. They pour off the pages into your waiting arms. It would be an understatement to say I am happy with this book.
2.5 stars, rounded down because I left this book with a sense of... incompleteness.I have to agree with this review's assessment that this book reads like an early draft brought in to a writing group. Their critique is a lot more detailed than I'm going to get into here, but the takeaway is the same. Technically, the writing often lacked polish; the delivery of information was stilted at best; and the plot... meandered, to put it kindly.I wanted to like this book, really I did. You all know at t
