Book Review: Shadowfall by James Clemens

[othercat]

The protagonist of Shadowfall is a disgraced “Shadowknight” who is falsely accused of the murder of a goddess. Since the dying goddess bestowed a blessing on the knight this is taken as proof that he killed the goddess to gain her powers. During the protagonist’s quest to clear his name, he discovers that the ancient war that exiled the gods to his world is starting to heat up again. He also encounters a mysterious secret organization that appears to be running a number of insidious plots. (It also turns out that this secret organization may be responsible for the events that led to the protagonists disgrace.)

 

 What I found most interesting about the novel is the world building.
