The Shadow of the Gods by John Gwynne: what to read next, and why.
-
The Blade Itself
Similarly brutal and character-driven, with a sharper sense of humour and more political scheming.

Malice
The author's earlier series, a more traditional fantasy with the same love of battle and mythology.
-
A Game of Thrones
A comparable multi-viewpoint epic where violence has real consequences for anyone.
