This book crawled out of the deepest, darkest woods with violence in its heart. A terrific new world by a master fantasy author. I loved it – Jackson Ford, author of The Bone RaidersDavid Gemmell meets The Name of the Rose in a page turning mix of mystery and epic fantasy – Anthony RyanAn intriguing mystery, genuinely harrowing fights, and intricate setting * Gareth Hanrahan *A wonderful tale, using a murder-mystery scenario to great effect set within a well-drawn fantastical world. The characters shone for me, especially the two central characters. I came to care about them, felt immersed in their journey. When a book makes me feel, it’s a win for me. I loved it and would highly recommend – John GwynneThe Last Vigilant is a tale where classic fantasy meets a puzzling mystery and delivers an unputdownable read * Fantasy Hive *
