Five Broken Blades by Mai Corland
Kindle Unlimited Gem
The last month of the year is officially here, and I’m using December to finish books I meant to read this year and take chances on Kindle Unlimited authors who aren’t usually on my radar. That’s how I stumbled upon Five Broken Blades by Mai Corland. This book was a thrilling surprise, taking me out of my comfort zone and leaving me craving more.
While the synopsis hints at the group’s ultimate goal, the real magic lies in their perilous journey to the king. The short chapters kept the pace brisk, and each twist and turn had me on the edge of my seat. You truly never knew what danger lurked around the next corner.
I was captivated by the rich worldbuilding and the complex characters. Each member of the group brought their unique strengths and flaws to the table, creating a dynamic and fascinating ensemble. As they navigated treacherous landscapes and faced deadly foes, I found myself questioning their every move, fully immersed in their world.
My only minor complaint is the slightly slow start, particularly in the first 30%. However, once the story found its footing, it was a non-stop thrill ride. I couldn’t put it down, eager to discover what new challenges and surprises awaited the group.
If you enjoy dark fantasy with unpredictable twists and turns, I highly recommend Five Broken Blades. It’s a captivating read with unforgettable characters and a world that will stay with you long after you turn the final page.
