Publisher Description
The Tattered Banner featured on Buzzfeed's 12 Greatest Fantasy Novels of 2013, in 8th place.
Unique talent always attracts attention…
In a world where magic is outlawed, ability with a sword is prized above all else. For Soren this means the chance to live out his dreams.
Plucked from a life of privation, he is given a coveted place at Ostenheim’s Academy of Swordsmanship, an opportunity beyond belief.
Opportunity is not always what it seems however, and gifts rarely come without conditions. Soren becomes an unwitting pawn in a game of intrigue and treachery that could cost him not just his dreams, but also his life.
The Tattered Banner is a coming of age tale and the first part of the swashbuckling fantasy 'Society of the Sword' trilogy.
Customer Reviews
Great, easy to read fantasy
Not as complex as some heavier fantasy novels but nonetheless, and indeed sometimes as a result, extremely enjoyable. I highly recommend this book if you're sick of descending into deep depressions after reading Martin or Abercrombie and just want a quick, entertaining read.
