Blood of the King is book one of an epic fantasy series with some new ideas in this genre.  Bruce Blake has published a very good book with great action and some very interesting characters with a few twists and turns of the plot that were quite unexpected.  Khirro, "the hero" is a character I really like.The storyline is well thought out and is a high quality fantasy read with excellent editing.I would have enjoyed a "map" of the lands so that I could have a reference for the travels of the characters.  With the inclusion of a map to help me follow the journey and possibly an appendix/listing of characters I would give this a 5 star rating!Congratulations to Bruce Blake on a very good read and I look forward to the next in the series.
