Publisher Description
The Book of Deacon is the first book of The Book of Deacon series by Joseph R. Lallo.
Myranda Celeste’s world has been built on a legacy of bloodshed. For more than a century, her homeland the Northern Alliance has fought the Kingdom of Tressor in what has come to be known as the Perpetual War. While her people look upon the conflict with reverence, Myranda’s hate for the war has made her an outcast.
When she finds a precious sword among the equipment of a fallen warrior, she believes her luck may have changed. Little does she imagine that the treasure will draw her into an adventure of wizards and warriors, soldiers and rebels, and beasts both noble and monstrous. The journey will teach her much about her potential, about the origins of the war, and about the threat her world truly faces.
Will Myranda unlock the secret of bringing peace once and for all, or will the world be lost to the Perpetual War?

Great read
From the very beginning I knew that I was going to enjoy this book. It was captivating and nothing of interest had happened yet. The only real downside was how slow it got towards the end when she was learning and although it was important to go slowly so that we could feel it was hard won, it was still rather laborious to read. Looking forward to reading the rest in this series
