As I said before, this book is the first book in the series and thus extremely slow in my opinion. The second one is the pacing of the book. But believe me, give them a chance and you will fall in love with them. There are so many characters that in the beginning it may or may not overwhelm you. This book can overwhelm us for two reasons. We still witness raids sometimes by giants, sometimes by humans. Though there isn’t any war around, we still don’t have peace. The war had left giants dividing themselves and spreading all over the Lands. The Banished Lands are still facing the consequences of the war fought on their lands 2000 years ago. This series is based on a whole new world, Malice lays down the foundation of The Banished Lands that we are about to enter. Everything that you possibly want in a book is here. Malice is the beginning of the adventure that will never end. This book is the first instalment in 4 book series of The faithful and the Fallen. But have we read anything like Malice before? No, at least I don’t think so. Have we seen it before? Yes, a million times yes.

This series is based on our classic and most basic Good vs. (And we all know 2020 had not been kind.) And this was a goddamn good decision that I took in 2020. (That’s what I usually do.) And I am not gonna lie, for a moment, my thoughts wavered but I was promised an amazing series and I kept reading on. I decided to go blind in this book, knowing only the genre and the fact that I wanted to read a good book.
