Need some epic fantasy in your life? Some no-holds-barred action, big battles, with a couple of mad gods and megalomaniac humans thrown in the mix? Need some book buying ideas for family and friends? Allow me to introduce you to the Godblind trilogy. Definitely

🙌🏽 This is the fantasy series I’m recommending to everyone! THE IRON ROAD by
@davewragg.com
is 5 star - what a finale to Tales of the Plain! 🤩 Perfect for fans who love rebellion, Pratchett style banter & action adventure. I laughed, I cried, I hid behind my hands 🫣

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recommended the series & photographed it every chance I got at World Fantasycon! Even went to the panel on Writing for Laughs & spoke briefly to Dave, but then avoided him so as not to inadvertently get spoilers to the ending 🤣 very cool 👌🏽
