The ancient world of magic is no more. Its heroes are dead, its halls are ruins, and its great battles between Light and Dark are forgotten. Only the Stewards remember, and they keep their centuries-long vigil, sworn to protect humanity if the Dark King ever returns.
Sixteen-year-old dock boy Will is on the run, pursued by the men who killed his mother. When an old servant tells him of his destiny to fight beside the Stewards, Will is ushered into a world of magic, where he must train to play a vital role in the oncoming battle against the Dark.
As London is threatened by the Dark King’s return, the reborn heroes and villains of a long-forgotten war begin to draw battle lines. But as the young descendants of Light and Dark step into their destined roles, old allegiances, old enmities and old flames are awakened. Will must stand with the last heroes of the Light to prevent the fate that destroyed their world from returning to destroy his own.
💭My review:
I have to start off with OMG this cover is absolutely beautiful!! I was really excited about this one. Who wouldn't with that synopsis and cover? It was a very good read but very predictable. I enjoyed everything but it was a very slow story with lots of details. I loved the setting of the story and the ending was pretty cool. I will totally be reading the next one. I think it can get really better.
Thank you @netgalley and @harpercollinsch for giving me the chance to read and review this book.
I give it 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
