#26 The Children of Gods and Fighting Men - Full Review
Sam and Dan review The Children of Gods and Fighting Men, by Shauna Lawless.
SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading this book before listening.
The Children of Gods and Fighting Men is the first novel in Shauna Lawless's Gael Song trilogy. We delve into our first historical fantasy. We explore the key themes, the historically accurate plot and how the history drives the plot, and our two main characters, one who experiences a journey of enlightenment and the other who is firmly set in her ways.
