Summary
Now that Crik and the Downers, once-slaves of Ungstah, have arrived safely in the village of Arined, they can breathe freely for the first time in their short lives.
However, unbeknownst to them, the specter of Sulfus the gaunt king and the witch of Ungstah looms over their new home, the last vestige of safety in the Northern Reaches.
Meanwhile, in Ungstah, Durgan, former Captain of the Watch, and those left behind, prepare for their final assault against Sulfus, knowing his fall is their only way to freedom. But as each day passes and lives are lost, the uprising begins to falter.
Aniel, a messenger from the Eastern lands, knows that time is running out as she searches through the dark past of an ancient king in the hope of finding a clue to the mysterious origins of Sulfus and the King’s Eyes.
How long can Crik and his companions hide from Sulfus and the King’s Eyes? Will Durgan and the Branded have the strength to topple a throne? What secrets will Aniel find? Will it be enough to overthrow a king and free the Downers once and for all?
It all began with a child. It will only end with a war.

My Review
5 Stars
Where do I begin? To be completely honest, I am not entirely sure how to start this review. When I agreed to review the War of the Downer King I knew that I would need to read the first two books of the series beforehand. I was worried because I knew that if the first two books could not keep me interested I would have a very difficult time reading the third. So with an anxious heart, I began my journey into the Scar of the Downers series.... and it was simply amazing.
War of the Downer King is a wonderful continuation of the previous books. Just like the rest of the series, it kept me immersed in the story. I deeply enjoyed every moment I spent following the journey of these characters that I have become attached to and grown to love. It saddens me to say goodbye to these characters and with a heavy heart I move on to my next read. I am thankful that I was given the opportunity to read this series and hope to see more from the author in the future.
I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
