The Look of a King

This is another book that was very nicely sent to me by the author. Don't get me wrong...I in no way offered a review, or promised to write one, nor did he even ask for me too... 

But I really enjoyed what he wrote here in his story, so therefore I WANT to talk about it! 

When reading the back of the book, I found myself interested right off the bat. I mean, this stuff is right up my alley anyway, but I did wonder how it would stand out from the rest too...

To me, this has a very medieval, crusader-style England/Europe feel to it that I really liked. As a fantasy tale with no magic system, it was definitely nice to see this story feel more grounded like a story you'd hear in history. 
The twists and turns in this story definitely have a George R. R. Martin-esque weaving to them, but as it's told in only two perspectives it's easy to follow for those that aren't that huge into gigantic tales. I will say though that I did enjoy it to the point where I wondered about the characters we get to meet. And in that sense, means I would have read more perspectives and more storylines, which is the most Martin feeling part of all. 

I'm really not even sure what else I can say because I want to remain spoiler free, but I need more people to read this, so that I can talk more openly about it. And I definitely need a sequel. 

5/5* please find/buy/read it immediately.
