DreadMarrow Thief
This book is about a young woman who is unknowingly related to a powerful and malevolent wizard. She forms a small band of adventurers to infiltrate the wizard's castle and all sorts of magical highjinks ensue.
The book is relatively short as fantasy books go, I managed to finish it in a day. The writing flows and is an easy read.
I really like the cozy feeling of this fantasy. It’s a wonderful comfort read and has a very halloween vibe. Not the scary, horror-style halloween but rather, the happy, fun kind of halloween.
But this book isn't really for a reader of my age. This is middle grade material and is something that I can recommend for readers in that age range.
I gave it a try because there are some middle grade and YA books that are so good that they transcend their target audience, the Harry Potter series is perhaps the best example, A less popular example would be the Bartimaeus Trilogy. Unfortunately, the Conjuror Fellstone series does not belong to this class of books.
If you're a middle grade reader give this a try, if your an adult fantasy reader this is a definite pass.
