Why You Should Read: The Age of Darkness series by Katy Rose Pool
The basic premise of this series is that the End of the World is coming, and the Last Prophet is the only one who can potentially stop it
Set in a Mediterranean inspired fantasy world with cultures that remind me of North Africa, Middle East, Greek, and Slavic cultures
Super diverse and inclusive fantasy world. Reading books like these are such a breathe of fresh air
This book follows the pov of 5 characters who all get thrown together to possibly save (or destroy) the world
We have:
An assassin and her undead sister
An exiled Prince trying to save his people
Captain Jude Weatherborn, Keeper of the Word and leader of the Order of the Last Light, A stoic swordsman
A disaster gay running from his past
Other fantastic side characters
There’s a Hierophant and religious fanatics
As well as a secret order of Paladins charged with keeping the secrets of the last prophecy
The Gays will save the world
gods and secrets and lore
People in this world have ‘graces’ that lend them unique abilities (reminds me a bit of Grisha)
There’s lots of action but this is very much a character driven series. The characters are so complex and their relationships are so complicated it’s great
The purest and most heartbreakingly sweet romance
I’m surprised this series isn’t more popular, it checks the boxes for a lot of what is currently popular, but also feels fresh and new and unique
