Book Review - The Lost War

The Lost War by Justin Lee Anderson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was the winner of the Self Published Fantasy Blog Off for 2020-2021. I always read the winner of that contest and have never been disappointed.

This book was engrossing. I read far too late into the evenings.

I'm giving it 4 stars because for the first 75% of the book, it was a pretty traditional fantasy book. A hero that is saving his country. Everyone is on edge from a recently concluded war.

Go here. Do the thing. Go there. Encounter bad stuff on the way. Get there. Discover something new. Break the king's orders. Go other places. Get the thing. Face the evil villain.

And then the book changes. The hero finds that they weren't really fighting for the right side. And the book really takes off from there.

Not getting more specific because this book is worth every penny you will pay. A very satisfying read.
