Let me start off by saying how much I enjoyed Paladin, the places, the characters, everything about this book, Its as if the worlds of Game of thrones and Inuyasha had a baby, and the baby was Paladin, with a few difference to give the book its uniqueness. For starters, the main character Sam or Lady Samantha is a strong willed woman, yes shes like your typical Disney princess, unhappy with her life so she sets out for greener pastures, but with a twist, no one has to come rescue her, for she is good with a sword., Braeden however is your typical half demon you see in most anime's, silver hair, slit pupils, and of course handsome, but with a twist, He is able to transform, which oddly enough gave me “An American werewolf in London” vibes. Finally we have Tristan, your typical knight in shining armor, and Sam's Paladin mentor, He is a Paladin and first of the sword, he's an honorable guy with exceptional sword skills, though his mind doesn't quite stack up to his sword skills. Paladin takes place in the Kingdom of Thule, as it follows Sam on her quest to become a Paladin, Paladins are the defenders of Thule, they fight for justice and to protect all of Thule's people, and of course they slay demons, but Sam has a problem, there is no such thing as a female Paladin, but that didn't stop Sam, she gave up being Lady Samantha. To become Sam of Haywood. In order to join. All and all Paladin has enough going on in it to keep you interested, yes it does have some slow moments but not enough to make reading and/or listening to the book such a chore, the characters are relatable, the plot and story are on par, the ending leaves you wanting more but with a lot of questions unanswered with anticipation for the second book. Uriel. ... If it ever comes out. I'll address the major issue I have with Paladin, and that is the title of the book, example, other books that has Paladin in its title, thus making it hard to find on book sites if you don't know the authors name. I highly recommend giving Paladin a read,, you will not be disappointed, the audio book is also good, and voiced very well, the voice acting is above average but compared to other audio books I've listened to, I feel it could have been better, but that's not the books fault. Well Done. Mrs Slater.
