The Cost of Betrayal “Now that the characters are fully introduced, the world is built, we get into a good story. I am glad I pushed through the first book. The second book did not disappoint. Harruq and Quarrah with Aurie are attacked by a band of mercenaries hired to keep all elves out of the city. They fight for an extended period of time, it basically comes to a standstill and they agree to join the mercenaries to not be kicked out of the city. They are hired to do a few jobs, meet some new people including Tessana but the brothers start to be drawn apart. Tessana has a fractured mind which leads to other issues. Definitely worth a read.”
The Weight of Blood “The Weight of Blood tells the story of 2 brothers who happen to be Half-Orcs. When they were young, they were sold. Qurrah had a much tougher life then Harruq, but they eventually found each other again. They had to fight, steal, etc to eke out a living. We learn that Harruq is a large warrior while Qurrah is a necromancer. They fight along humans in the beginning of the story but run into Velxar, who continues to haunt/message Qurrah in his dreams. They final agree to join with him. The author does a good job of world building but at times it seems to be slow and dragging. Near the end of the book, with the training of Aurelia, the attack and the ending, it was better written, not as slow. I will try the next book to see if the slowness was due to the world building. I have read good things about David, I am guessing that this might have been his first series.”
