Best of them all Full disclosure, I've read all of Dalglish's books, i'm a fan. He's an self publisher who has just broken out of the indie world and moved into mainstream publishing. If you do a little research before reading his stuff, which I did, you'll see that most of his books aren't terribly long, have really memorable characters and move a great pace. All of this is true. But what he is really good at, what I'd argue he is best at, is dealing with the issue of faith. How to choose, how to live and how to deal with the consequences that come with that faith. He showed this best in his Paladin's seri. boonymedic said Disappointed. I got this book because I enjoyed the paladin series and really wanted to see where it all began. The writing took more of a twist than the plots, I believe a lot of the soft porn and cursing could have been left out and replaced with more character depth. I mean seriously the King says "what the f@#$" when some one interrupts his court? I believe this was a cop out to having to add a more intellectual wit and depth to the character, I wont even go into the other foul mouthed character whom has so much more potential to use his physical deformities as a cause to have a more deviant wit rath. this book is pretty terrible. You know you are in trouble when Man, this book is pretty terrible. You know you are in trouble when the first like five+ pages is all just dramatis personae and house this and house that or whatever. The first half of the book is completely boring to tears. I used it to put me to sleep at night. Couldn't get through more than a page before I was out like a light. Finally picked up a bit toward the end, but this was a total disappointment. Paladins series was pretty decent, but the first book of this series is just incredibly tedious.
