Rendition To Books Winterbirth (The Godless World #1)
The greatest tales are written in blood...An uneasy truce exists between the thanes of the True Bloods.
Now; as another winter approaches, the armies of the Black Road march south from their exile beyond the Vale of Stones. For some, war will bring a swift and violent death. Others will not hear the clash of swords or see the corpses strewn over the fields. They instead will see an opportunity to advance their own ambitions. But soon, all will fall under the shadow that is descending.
For, while the storm of battle rages, one man is following a path that will awaken a terrible power in him - and his legacy will be written in blood.

I loved this book! I was supposed to be touring Australia and just picked it up in a hostel book swap but I could not put it down! But then again this is my kind of book. I need to get onto reading the rest of the trilogy and just hope they are as good as this one.This book is a true epic fantasy. It is very low magic, as A Song of Ice and Fire is, where the magic is subtle almost implied or assumed. When it happens though, it is amazing. The author weaves a strong story with a heavy plot that has you concerned for the characters and the lands they occupy. This is indeed a great work and I am fixing to start reading the next book very soon.
Slow going in the beginning and there are things I am still a little confused about. After the second chapter though, I was hooked. I couldn't put it down. Now I'm yearning for the second "Bloodheir". The author created is own world and you can not help but being sucked in!

I really liked this first book in the series.Very interesting to say the least.Before writing a full review, I am going to read book 2 first.Just in case the series takes a turn for the worst.However, if Bloodheir is anything like Winterbirth, I shan't be disappointed.
Re-posting my review as it appears on my Book Review column: "Reading Realms" on The Outhouse Website: http://www.theouthousers.com/index.ph...I've been holding this book in my hands in the bookstore over and over again through the last few months. It kept catching my interest with the blurb, but I hadn't really heard much about it. Well, when the whole trilogy was out in paperback I finally went ahead and picked them up (so the other two book reviews should be coming as well).Well, I am very
More of the same. There are no gods and people now it: great, so what? Same old political factions grinding against each other and the war is breaking. Again, so what? More teenage leads, more older, thougher guardians, more secret knowleadge that can save the world. And what is it about the elves? You give it a new name but it's still the same b**! If you enjoy this same old recipe, then great and good read. But I don't understand all the good reviews everywhere I look, when there are books
It is a book about disenfranchised (appologies for bad spelling)factions all of whom have something to be angry about...the lost something, betrayal etc etc...The cast is numerous and you find out things about them through the dialogue of the rest of the characters rather than through large mountains of prose. This can be hard work as it misdirects your attention from actual plot.I did enjoy this book to an extent but always felt that it was the start of a trilogy or series, more of a pilot
