The Thornwood Plot

by D.E. Wright

In an era of tension and turmoil, when the balance of power between kingdoms, duchies and empires is in constant flux, Omen Altier, Knight Paragon of the Ashenian Order, is sent forth on a mission of the gravest peril. The young knight's task: to infiltrate deep into a hostile nation, and kidnap a traitor to crown and country and see to his safe return. His compatriots for this assignment include the cynical but more experienced Sir Jav and the naive Lady-in-Waiting Adica, their mark's former servant. In an ancient city of secrets and shadows they must navigate a web of deceit that threatens to consume them. Alone and far from home, they are beset with dangers both from without ... and within.

The Thornwood Plot pulled me in and kept me hooked. I finished the book in one sitting. The author's style and descriptions, especially in fight scenes, really added to the story. Omen was personally my favorite character. In general I thought the author was good at giving insight into each characters mindset. There was some definite language which is fine, just caught me off guard. :) Overall this was an amazing book and I'd like to see more from this author.
