It's my favorite fantasy series next to the Bloodsworn Saga.
And I wish more people knew about it/read it! Unfortunately a lot of people are put off by the prologue and first few chapters. I was too.
My mom had bought The Empire's Ghost for me (I didn't know why, it was not my birthday nor Christmas). I tried reading the prologue, went "oh, this is boring." And shoved the book away.
But then I decided "I should give it a chance."
And I'm glad I did. The cast is colorful, the worldbuilding is fascinating, especially when more is revealed in each book, and the couples that are together, or eventually get together, are so cute.
Even the side characters or characters who appear once have a personality.
I just wish more people gave it a chance.
