Siege

Threads of Fate #3

by Ollie Odebunmi

A young man on a journey of self-discovery in a land at war. Will he be forged into the finest tempered steel, or shatter into a thousand pieces?

Aeneas bears the name of a hero from another world. Thrust into the murderous intrigue of a land far from his while studying under the kingdom's foremost weapons master, he will need deep wells of courage and all his newly learned fighting skills to survive.

Two brothers determined to fulfil the destiny of their people, lead a vast army of blood-crazed tribesmen against the mightiest fortress of the age, while two heroes thought dead, return to join a father's desperate quest to rescue his son from a land in turmoil.

Before all's done, countless thousands will die, carrion beasts will glut their fill, dark magics will be unleashed and a young man will stare into the eyes of madness.

If you like authors like David Gemmell and Raymond E. Feist, you will love this breath-taking tale of thunderous action, magic, intrigue, hope and despair and the cut and thrust of epic battles where legends are made.Siege, set six years after the events recounted in Verge of Darkness, is the third book of the Threads of Fate series. The fourth book; A Chill Wind Blows is available on Amazon.

About the author

Growing up, Ollie Odebunmi developed a love for the works of fantasy authors such as Robert E Howard, Michael Moorcock and Edgar Rice Burroughs and in later years, Raymond E. Feist, Karl Edward Wagner and David Gemmell. His other interests were fitness and boxing and he went on to establish a gym business, before writing his first book, The Last Great Heavyweights - From Ali and Frazier to Lewis and Tyson. Satisfied he had the chops as a writer, he took the plunge into fiction, and naturally, it had to be epic/heroic fantasy. He published Verge of Darkness, the first book of the Threads of Fate series in 2017.

[Catherine Edgar · Rating 5 out of 5]

Because Siege is not set at a time frame immediately after the King’s Banquet, I was able to follow the story in the series better than reading the King’s Banquet without reading book one. Of the two books of the series, I definitely preferSiege as the story is better developed and fuller.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Fantastic

I found this very good, fast paced, full of combatant very enjoyable plot. The characters are very well developed making it very difficult to select sides. If this author has more I am definitely reading them.
