Fans of Joe Abercrombie, Rob J. Hayes, and Ed McDonald, this is for you.' - FanFiAddict'PalladinoâÇÖs debut novel is a promising start to his fantasy series, and he has created a deliciously brutal, grimdark world, filled with a whole horde of colourful characters. If you are a fan of grimdark fantasy, you will lap this up like a cat to milk.' - Before We Go Blog'The Trials of Ashmountáwas a great read with plenty of action, skulduggery, and skulfuckery, and one that I enjoyed from start to finish.'á- QueenâÇÖs Book Asylum'There is not one single thing I would change about this book, hence the 5 star rating.'á- The Nerdy Narrative'And what a magic system. There are so many of these in epic fantasy these days that itâÇÖs tough to really make a standout one. But with this, Palladino hits the target and then brutally eviscerates said target.' - E.L.
