A Tale Of The King's Blades

Duncanâ€™s managed to make this list with 3 series. Kingâ€™s Blades are some sword-heavy fantasy for those who like fantasy full of swashbuckling, politics, and raw action. This is not epic fantasy as much as it is an action political fantasy thatâ€™s heavy on the heroics.You might think of this something as a fantasy version of The Three Musketeers. Like all Duncanâ€™s books, well plotted, well written, with an interesting world. And of course, always well developed and compelling characters, especially the protagonist.
