Helpful Score: 5
Yes, I loved this book. GGK has a way of putting you directly in the shoes of each character and provoking you to love, hate or at least sympathize with them.
He pulls from historic times and events and pieces together a well thought out plot from them. This story has somewhat of a typical storyline -war, overthrowing a bad king, ect- but it does have some twist that makes it set in a completely different world of it's own. You can read the description itself, but I will just comment on what I think about the book itself. This story is deep and has the action, mystery and a tad of romance in it. All put together to making a great fantasy book. I actually like his stand alone books way better than the Summer Tree series....
You could try a Song for Arbonne as well...I think I like that one even better....
Either way, Lions of Al-Rassan is a great read, and stays well with you when you put it down.
