If buying this as a physical copy is within your budget, I highly recommend that you do so. The end pages have a gorgeous filigree design and there’s a map. Beneath the jacket, the book is blood red and the cover is embossed with “Let them fear her” in white lettering. It took some time to familiarize myself with the world and the mythology, but Wicked Saints was an atmospheric, creepy ride that met my expectations.īefore we get into the book, I really want to note how beautiful this book is in person. There are some issues that are common in first books of a fantasy series. Seriously, if you have a thing for anti-heroes, dark magic, and things that are simply metal as fuck, this book is for you. Wicked Saints is a young adult fantasy debut and it’s a goth kid’s dream. TW/CW: Warnings for graphic violence, self harm, and child abuse. Genre: Science Fiction/Fantasy, Young Adult ![]()

Turning from the prison, he scanned the evening skies and the deserted banks of the River Cravan. People never came out, it was said, except to be buried or beheaded. The boy shivered, thinking of the stories he had heard about the inside of that place. On the wide crests of the walls guards walked, crossbows gleaming as the sunset struck them. The stones in these mighty prison ramparts had only slits for windows. Glancing behind him, he saw the darker stones of the ancient northeast corner of the city, marking the outer confines of the prison. Hidden, safe for the moment, he wiped his grubby hands across his eyes and enjoyed a momentary respite from his troubles.
