About this ebook

'A hugely entertaining debut' John Gwynne

'Epic fantasy as it should be; big, bold and very addictive' Starburst

'A great romp in a brilliantly realised setting . . . I have lost sleep, forgotten food and made this the thing I pick up every moment I can get'
SFFWorld

A shadow has fallen over the Tressian Republic.

Ruling families plot against one another with sharp words and sharper knives, heedless of the threat posed by the invading armies of the Hadari Empire.

The Republic faces its darkest hour. Yet as Tressia falls, heroes rise.

Game of Thrones meets the Last Kingdom in Matthew Ward's Legacy of Ash - an unmissable epic fantasy debut of vicious intrigue, ancient magic and the eternal clash of empires.

Bland psuedo medieval fantasy with characters blind to obvious villains and plotting, and a supposedly mastermind character that's like something from a children's pantomime, but no one notices that she is manipulating them - because the plot requires it I guess? Everything just happens because the plot requires it, with no attempt to have the character actions be believable or be internally consistent, unless their character trait is that they are blind, stupid, idiot fools. Waste of money. Better to be found for free on amazon.

About the author

Matthew Ward has frequently been accused of living in worlds of his own imagination, though really he lives near Nottingham with his extremely patient wife and several attention-seeking cats.
