Rate this book
Stabby nominated, SPFBO7 semi-finalist The Path and the Way is a fast-paced, epic fantasy adventure full of games, grit and magic.

Holes between worlds are tearing through Rengas. Firestorms are raging as multiple realities battle for control of the elements. Even the Way, the turbulent channel that separates Nord, Határ and Kemen, the lifeblood of the city of Tyr, has turned.

Kyira's search for her missing brother draws her away from the familiar frozen lines of Nord and south into the chaotic streets of Tyr where games are played & battles fought.

As reality tears Kyira must choose between her family or her path before the worlds catch up with her.

*Second reading in anticipation of Fallen Shards*
Somehow even better the second time. This world just grips you in instantly, I always feel like I'm there alongside the characters. The additional context of The Battle That Was Lost novella makes Laeb an even stronger character. Jagar still crazy scary. I can't stop recommending this book.


The Path and The Way had me hooked from the first chapter. It's been a while since I got so invested in a book this way; the world is deep and rich and lived in, and clearly well thought out. There are several character POVs from different backgrounds were all very good, especially Kyira and Jagar's, the latter of which is probably one of my new favourite fantasy villains. The story was really enjoyable and fast paced. Another bonus was the stunning artwork on both the cover and throughout the book. I can't wait to see more from the Ringlander series. Highly recommend.
