Great epic fantasy
This is a fantasy in true classic style.
Starting and ending with a storyteller scribe imparting the secret histories of the world of Parl. Ps epic ending.
There is (like in most great fantasies) a host of characters that have their individual stories slowly merge together. They are a very memorable bunch and I can't wait to read more about them. We have a female elf thief, a wizard dwarf, a massive bounty hunter, a young healer, a wannabe hero, and a young female mage in training - all form a group on a quest to save Parl from evil.
There are lots of tense moments and epic battle scenes resulting in rapid page turning.
A true fantasy fan's treasure, Parl is one new t to miss.
With the plethora of unique and likeable cast, we get an age-old story (good v evil) delivered in a new and exciting way.
Roll on book 2!

This was a pretty good fantasy story. There's some telling like Dune and Ender's Game, which is an older writing style but the author does show. This is one of my favorite lines, "The train beside him heaved, belching out thick plumes of white steam and dark smoke, the metallic heartbeat of its engine resonating like a symphony heralding the march of progress." I was able to visualize the characters and world. If you like fantasy, give this adventure a chance.
