I have talked a lot about my Wolves lately, but there is another series that's just as dear to me:
The Winds & Pillars
The books follow individual users of magic who all escape a terrible system of slavery and sacrifice painted as religion.
Slowly, they find each other and team up (working up to the grand finale).
So far, there are seven books for you to enjoy, and the first one is free:
South Breaks
The ten #SPFBO #SPFBOX finalists in haiku form from back in the early days of the competition.

Review of South Breaks on Goodreads:
"The prose is simple and compelling, much like the names here. It isn’t drawn out, and that keeps the story moving. The simplicity is an asset. While much is under-explained, it all lends to an inviting sense of strangeness.
[...] this opening does feel unique. I WANT to understand more. I’m pulled into the story despite of being thrown out of it. The book is also FREE. Who could resist? I’m in."
"This is not a full review. I read through the beginning of all 300 SPFBOX contest entries. This was a book I wanted to read more of."
This is the headline for a review of South on Goodreads.
The review itself offers both praise and criticism, which is fair. I still love it and am very chuffed about it.
Goodreads won't let me link to individual reviews, so you'll have to scroll down a little. It's by Tom Mock.
The fearless and heroic Lady Isovar sat for a rare interview with DB Rook. If you want to know more about smiting or egotism, please check it out.
