The second novel in Ben Peek's epic Children trilogy, continuing from The Godless.

If you enjoy a multi-layered, complex fantasy, read these books! Glenda Larke Leviathan's Blood is one of the most unique and enthralling epic fantasies that I have read in recent years. Peek's vision and execution are wonderful, and his deft and creative touch with this series a joy to behold. If Peek continues to write to this standard he will go down in history as a master of the genre Smash Dragons I'm not overstating things when I say that Ben Peek is one of the most accomplished writers of richly detailed and intricately plotted epic fantasy working in Australia today Newton Review of Books [Peek's] mixture of adventure, politics, myth and ancient legend is completely immersive, totally absorbing and unashamedly 5* stuff The Book Bag
