Illborn is another example of why I love searching for underrated fantasy books. I know that sounds crazy, but that’s just how good this debut is. It would overtake The Hand of the Sun King by J.T. If I had read Illborn in 2021 instead of 2022, it would’ve won my best fantasy debut of 2021. At the time of writing this review, there are only 160 ratings on Goodreads, and that’s unacceptable. It’s so surprising that this is a debut, a ridiculously underrated one. Fortunately, I did give it a read despite my feelings on the cover art, and I’m truly grateful I did. Frankly, if it wasn’t due to the highly positive word-of-mouth circulating on Bookstagram and Twitter, I doubt I would give Illborn, the first book in The Illborn Saga by Daniel T. The current cover art is alright, but it’s not representative of the quality of the captivating story Jackson has crafted in his debut. Illborn is an absolutely compelling character-driven epic fantasy debut.īefore I begin my review, I would like to say that I think Illborn needs a better cover art. Published: 19th March 2021 by Troubador Publishing (Indie)īy the Lord, this was amazing. Genre: Fantasy, Epic Fantasy, High Fantasy Review copy provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.
