Psalms Of Isaak

An ambitious and engrossing post-apocalyptic meets steampunk fantasy series that seems to be doing all the right things. You might think of it as a cross between A Song of Ice and Fire and Lions of al-Rassan.The premise itself: ancient technology has destroyed one of the great cities of the world, Windwir, also the repository of all the knowledge in the world. The leaders of the Named Lands will see justice done; conflict is brewing and every kingdom in the Name Lands will play the great game of politics and war.This series is one of the better political fantasies to grace the bookshelves since A Song of Ice and Fire. This is a rich fantasy with many layers of plot to it with complex, fascinating characters -- some of which will actually die (again, like Martin's series). It's not for everyone and the series is a bit uneven the whole way through. But if you want something a bit...different, then I do recommend you give this series a go.
