Complexities wise, in a different way and even though the two series are very different from each other, the complexities of The Licanius Trilogy was slightly reminiscent of Steven Erikson’s Malazan Book of the Fallen.
I can’t emphasize how impressed I am by Islington’s feat of crafting this immense trilogy as his first series it’s exceptionally well-plotted and complex. As much as I loved the previous two books, I do personally believe that The Light of All That Falls is, by far, the best book within the series Islington has truly saved the best for last. Unlike An Echo of Things to Come which starts immediately after the end of the first book, the story in The Light of All That Falls begins approximately one year after the end of the previous book. The Light of All That Falls is the third-and final-book in The Licanius Trilogy by James Islington. In all that time, it hadn’t felt like he had once just…paused.” How long had it been since he had just stopped and breathed? The past year had been a blur of pressing forward, of learning and planning and obsessing over all the different things he could try, going through every potential strategy and how likely it was to succeed or fail.
These quiet moments were too rare, and went unappreciated too often. “He stared over the expanse and then closed his eyes, feeling the soft breeze against his face and the gentle silence of the night. There is, however, a better option for you, pick up The Shadow of What Was Lost and begin binge-reading this astounding series. If you stumbled upon this review without having read the previous books in the trilogy, rest assured that this review will be spoiler-free no details regarding the plot will be mentioned. Binge reading this trilogy for the first time blew me away, and I’m already looking forward to rereading it in the future. With one trilogy, and without a shadow of a doubt, I’m going to include James Islington as the ninth author to join my list of favorite authors. Before today-out of approximately four hundred books I’ve read-there were eight authors on this list. Inside this list are authors who have written three or more books-that I’ve read, of course-to be included in my “favorites” shelf. If you look at my Goodreads profile, you can take a look at my list of favorite authors. Here’s a little statistic to give you an idea of how much I loved this book and series. The Light of All That Falls is an absolute marvel, a prodigious finishing touch to an ingeniously plotted series. ARC provided by the publisher-Orbit-in exchange for an honest review.
