Summary

*Important notice: The audiobook is currently under the first edition and will not sync or match with the newer extended edition of the ebook or paperbacks.

Magic is the purest form of darkness, and those born of its power must be purged.

Born of magic, Nerana is labeled a demon, and the cost of such treason is her life. Forced into hiding by the Order of Saro, she seeks to disenchant a curse that keeps her just within their grasp. After years of searching, she finds her redemption lies within the forbidden caves of Nhamashel, where ancient magic and formidable monsters lie in wait.

Through perilous trials, enemy territory, and finding trust in those she was taught to despise, Nerana soon learns that the journey to releasing such deadly magic may prove more fatal than the Order itself.

But for Nerana, this is more than a quest for survival…

It’s a promise of revenge.

Truly Sublime.

Damn, I'd forgotten how good Curse Of the Fallen was, so I decided to do a reread with the release of the fourth book Shadows of Nyn'Dira, and it was even better the second time round even if the ending broke my heart again.

Curse of the Fallen is H.C. Newell's debut book from her Epic Fantasy Book series Fallen Light, and let me tell you, it's absolutely fantastic. The worldbuilding and plot are excellent, a fast-paced setting and an action-packed fantasy romp that will keep you hooked from the vèry first page.

From the start, you are introduced to a fantastic cast of characters that you will love. A vengeful sorcerer, a loveable bard, and a shape-shifting Dreled that are so relatable that you can't help but feel all their pain and torment that their cruel world has put them through.

H.C. Newell's writing is wonderful. She has created a beautiful new dark magical world for us to live in, and it's so good, and for a voracious reader, like me, where I like to lose myself for a few hours, this book has
everything you want in fantasy, Giant Knights, Assassin Elves, skin changers, lots of monsters, and a to top it off a drink swilling carefree nudist hippy colony 🤣

At an early age, our main protagonist, Neer, has been tortured and cursed. Her whole life has been destroyed, and her family murdered by the Order. After escaping, she was raised by her adopted father Master Reiman, and has taught her to be a master warrior of the sword and to control her magic.

Now, the order is on her trail, and Neer is being hunted by these religious fanatics who want her power. Her mission is to free herself from the curse, so with her best friends Loryk and Gil, she must face the trials of blood to get to the hidden caves of Nhamashel. First, she must survive if she is to have any chance of breaking the curse.

Absolutely awesome read. If you are looking for something new or just some good oul storytelling, then I very highly recommend the Fallen Light series. You won't regret it.

fantastic!!!

This book has left me desperate to find out what happens next!
A brilliant story that contains everything you could want in a fantasy tale. Interesting characters, rich descriptions and a roller coaster ride of emotions to carry you through the story; not to mention creatures and monsters galore! I love how the story gets straight into the action and doesn't keep you waiting for ages. I also listened to the audiobook. The narrator reads beautifully and does a great job of putting you in to the world the author has created . He brings the characters to life with different accents and his use of tone helps to create an unsettling and dramatic atmosphere.If I could ask for one thing from this book, it would be to hear more of the different languages the characters speak. I think this would help us picture the characters even more and add charm to them too.
Overall, a brilliant story and I can't wait to read or listen to the next book!
I highly recommend the book to anyone who loves a good fantasy story that's action packed.
