On the outskirts of the forest, Feist's men prepare to seize the castle, promising to rain death upon the defenders. Unaware of this peril, the court advisors search for clues to the origin of the mysterious Stranger.
Whew. I always feel exhausted after this book. There is a raw energy here. This is a land with an uncivilized underbelly. It is a place where might seems to be right. And where a young girl is being forced to age quickly. I hope people are reading this. It is superb. Read Full Review
With this issue ending the way it does, I'm hopeful that we will finally get more details and clues about the Stranger's identity. I also hope that more focus is put on Lady Cathryn. We still know so little about her and I want her character to be more than the silent damsel in distress. The Last Siege is a great book for those who like to see gritty Medieval action with a great story. I can't wait for whatever twists and turns come next. Read Full Review
The Last Siege is a solid adventure that has steadily found its footing. Part Game of Thrones, part High Plains Drifter, this is an epic that is engaging and interesting from the very start. Read Full Review
For someone who is normally calling out for more world building, Im pleasantly surprised at how little this offers in that regard while still managing to remain so engaging and believable. To have a contained series so quickly and efficiently have you switch off from everything else and wander the grounds with these characters is marvellous. Its fair to say this issue isnt a great jumping on point, but its early enough to catch up and I recommend you do. Read Full Review
