I was leaning toward three stars for this series, but the dialog that Mr. Kiln established between the 'Sin Eater' and the devil that possessed him was simply a riot. Outstanding bantering. Hence the four stars. And why not the final humor, as Heaven and Hell clash. Hell had far more many souls to send into battle than Heaven. Gee do ya think?

lost in the Garden
Vekal was an outcast even among those he helped. but it wasn't until he performed a sin-eating on the daughter of the barbarian who destroyed his holy city that Vekal truly had to wander alone. but he was not. burdened by his worst fear, he struggled to stay alive, fearing that heaven would never welcome him now.
this was an excellent read. I loved the grit of the desert, the mix of the characters and the great landscapes. I'm looking forward to reading more series by this author

And sea
My first time reading Jon Kiln and I enjoyed the trilogy.
I felt that the ending could have given a little more and that the writer, was not sure how to finish the last book.
I loved Vekal and his battle with his deamon,
The individual life stories wove well together, but I kept expecting Talon to have a bigger part , I have already downloaded my next trilogy, and hope it is just as good

Entertaining.
Enjoyable. I like the characters, the twisty plotlines, the disconnections and connections between the Soul Eater and his companion. Well done.
Oh ahem, horse bridle has reins. Kings and Queens have reigns.

Devils and Angels
Truly an edge sitter series. With a pull between the dark and the light. My only question at the end of this amazing tale is what happened to the little girl Ikrit first possessed? Not an essential question to be answered, but a question never the less.

Master's Degree in Demonology gift wrapped in geographical fantasy, swords and bestial killing.
Woven around the balance of good and evil and beautifully balanced. The nightmare of death cloaked in frenetic action fuelled by love and hate.

Lovely written set of books
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, Vekal led an adventurous life in the story with Ikrit.
It was also fun to read of Vekal and Ikrit argue with each other.

Good storyline
Enjoyed the character development and the twists in the story. The ending was abrupt but left room for the imagination.

Thought this was an excellent and well planned series. Good characters well plotted with interesting plot twists especially with the devil and vikal.

Loved it from start to finish
This was a great book. I actually felt sad when it was over. I consider this a must read for fantasy fans.

Started great, the end felt rushed though. Even with three stars I would still recommend this series if you want something different than your standard trope fantasy setting.

Nothing to write a blog about but decent try at a quality fantasy book. 3 stars but gains an extra star for being on Kindle Unlimited.

Good premise.
Liked the characterization, and the plot was pretty complelling, but the ending was awful. Truly disappointing. Feel no need to reengage with the story or author...
