Ledge The Glacian Trilogy, Book I

Ledge by Stacey McEwan is the first book in The Glacian Trilogy set in an icy fantasy world.   This world gives off all the winter vibes and is really interesting. At first, I was severely confused by it and needed a bit to understand it. Humans are basically on their own and trapped surrounded by mountains. Then there are the Glacians who are mythical winged creatures, and they sometimes bring the humans some food or other rations in exchange for sacrifices.   Dawsyn is a human, and her only companion is the ax she wields to protect and use the trees around her. She is a tough and badass protagonist who doesn’t easily give up and I appreciated that. When she is chosen to go with the Glacians, she is not a fan of that and doesn’t want this to be her faith.   Ryon is a half breed Glacian and therefore treated badly. He despises the Glacians and wants to destroy them. He sees an opportunity with Dawsyn’s resistance and decides to help her. He is also very hot and the spicy scenes in the book were well written as well.   The two then go on quite the journey together and I really liked to follow along and to see more of this world. It’s a very adventurous and survivalist story and that was very enjoyable.   Overall, Ledge is a very unique fantasy story and would be perfect to read in the wintertime. 4 stars.   (ARC kindly provided in exchange for a review.)
