The Sixth Order wields the sword of justice and smites the enemies of the Faith and the Realm.

Vaelin Al Sorna was only a child of ten when his father left him at the iron gate of the Sixth Order—a caste devoted to battle. Vaelin will be trained and hardened to the austere, celibate and dangerous life of a warrior of the Faith. He has no family now save the Order.

Vaelin’s father was Battle Lord to King Janus, ruler of the Unified Realm—and Vaelin’s rage at being deprived of his birthright knows no bounds. Even his cherished memories of his mother are soon challenged by what he learns within the Order.

But one truth overpowers all the rest: Vaelin Al Sorna is destined for a future he has yet to comprehend. A future that will alter not only the Realm, but the world.

Another Epic Fantasy that about epic things in a fantasy world. I can't say I didn't enjoy it, but there really isn't anything new or risky in the story.

Review of 'Blood Song' on 'Goodreads'

I've been reading this book for months and just couldn't get into it. It seems like a great story, and I love epic fantasy. Perhaps it was the narrators ponderous voice that put me off, as I listen to the audiobook narrated by A British guy I can't remember his name. Perhaps I will get this book in electronic format and give it another try.
