**Winner of the British Fantasy Award for Best Fantasy Novel** The first book in the award-winning Winnowing Flame trilogy. Epic fantasy for fans of Robin Hobb and Jay Kristoff.'Fantasy adventure at its very best' Starburst 'Williams excels at eldritch world-building' Guardian 'An original new voice in heroic fantasy' Adrian Tchaikovsky The great city of Ebora once glittered with gold. Now its streets are stalked by wolves. Tormalin the Oathless has no taste for sitting around waiting to die while the realm of his storied ancestors falls to pieces - talk about a guilt trip. Better to be amongst the living, where there are taverns full of women and wine.When eccentric explorer, Lady Vincenza 'Vintage' de Grazon, offers him employment, he sees an easy way out. Even when they are joined by a fugitive witch with a tendency to set things on fire, the prospect of facing down monsters and retrieving ancient artefacts is preferable to the abomination he left behind.But not everyone is willing to let the Eboran empire collapse, and the adventurers are quickly drawn into a tangled conspiracy of magic and war. For the Jure'lia are coming, and the Ninth Rain must fall...What readers are saying about THE NINTH RAIN:'The Ninth Rain was an amazing and captivating start to a trilogy; simple as that. I have a really good feeling that The Winnowing Flame Trilogy will become a new and long-awaited addition to my list of favorite trilogies of all time''What a world! What characters! What beasties! WHAT A BOOK!''I loved everything about this book: the characters, the plot, the monsters, the twists and turns. Masterfully handled and beautifully written'

This book has a slow start. Which was half a problem for me until I settled myself in for a long ride. Reading books that are longer than 400 pages requires a different mindset which is why I forced myself to focus in those first few pages. Not that the first few pages were uninteresting. It's just a different type of patience than I've been used to giving the last few weeks.And boy am I glad I did.Buckle up, yo.So we're going to start off with what other book this book vibes with. Elantris by Brandon Sanderson. Near mythical beings? Check. State of decay? Check. Hatred/discomfort from the normal humans? Check. Beautiful city that is wasting away like its inhabitants? Check. Worldbuilding that makes me want to cry over how amazing it is? Check.But we need to include a cyclical invasion held back by a relative few who have become reviled and forgotten since the lady invasion? Which was theoretically the last? So we're going to throw some Way of Kings in there, also by Brandon Sanderson.Still with me? Good.Now, as I said, the book was a bit of a slow starter, which is fine. We have to settle into the world state and get to know the characters so that we care about what happens to them. And we care about what they care about.The characters can be split into two camps: the investigating troupe and the Ebora survivors. I hope I spelled that correctly. With the investigators, we have Vintage, Tor, and Noon. Vintage is the wealthy, eccentric benefactor who has a sharp curiosity and a lack of fear regarding the Eborans (we're going to pretend I'm spelling this correctly because this is how I'm spelling it). She also has a strong independent streak and a healthy hatred of cages. Tor is an Eboran, a child when things went to crap, now an adult who is called the Oathless. He left and traveled for fifty years before being hired. He loves his clothes and his creature comforts. Most of all, he'd prefer not to think about what is going to happen to him most likely and what is definitely happening to the people he left behind. Noon was locked up by a fanatical religious group who basically torture her and has been in prison for ten years. Obviously, she wants freedom. She grew up on stories of how awful the Eborans are and kind of hates them because they slaughtered her people.Over on Team Ebora, we have Hest and Al...Hold on. I kept having to correct from Alistair. Aldisair? They're a pair of cousins who, like Tor, were only children and aren't actively dying at the moment. Hest is shown very early on to be willing to do whatever it takes to heal their god. She's very driven and wants desperately for things to go back to they way they were. But she's looking ahead to bring back the past. Alsidair, by contrast, is trapped in the past and can only look to the future. They're both deeply tragic figures, relics of a bygone age. There is a catalyst for change, which I won't go into because we're not about the spoiler life.I found all five of them to be wonderfully vivid. They acted on their desires and personalities. Their voices were clear. Well done.Also, Tor has hopped himself right up to my top 20 favorite characters, a list that I've never really thought about before and probably won't still but I love him. He and Vintage have the funniest relationship.Also, I ship him and Noon hardcore but that doesn't mean a whole heck of a lot.Moving on, there was a point around...7/8 of the book where I had a sudden realization and started swearing and pacing and then I realized I was starting to hyperventilate so I just stopped breathing. And then I started tearing up. And I didn't want to continue reading. Because I didn't want to be right. But I had to know how badly everything was going to go. And, well, there are two more books.This is going to be one of my favorite books of the year. I'm calling it now. Ninth Rain Winnowing Flame Trilogy 1 (The Winnowing Flame Trilogy) Kindle PDF eBook website Actual Rating: 4.5 stars“Show me a people who don’t have a bloody history.”Wow. What a start to a series.The majestic city of Ebora was once a wonder of the world, but when an enemy species, the Jure'lia, attacked, it left the city and its inhabitants shells of their former selves. Tormalin is from Ebora, but he is desperate to leave so that he doesn’t have to see the place and people he loves fade away. He hooks up with archiver Vintage and together they go off to try to learn more about the Jure'lia.Along the way they meet a Fell-Witch who has escaped her prison and is now on the run. What none of them realizes is that a new Rain may be upon them and that means the Jure'lia may be back.This is such a hard book to describe because it’s many different genres in one. It is a fantasy first, but it also combines elements of horror, sci-fi, and mystery. The world that Williams has crafted is so interesting. There are so many parts of the world we get to see due to the characters being in different places. The Jure'lia themselves seem straight out of a horror novel and their habits and the way they take over communities, while terrifying, was also extremely interesting and innovative.We first meet Hestillion and Tor as they are younger. Through them we learn about this illness called the flux and how it is killing Eborans. While Tor decides to leave, Hestillion stays and through her perspective, we see how badly the flux is affecting the once majestic city and its inhabitants. Hestillion is a character we don’t get to know much on a personal level, though I see that changing for the sequel. However, she is determined to save her people and that is by saving a tree named Ygseril, who is kind of a life line for Eborans. A lot of her story centers around this task that she has taken on.As for Tor, he has teamed up with Vintage and he likes this a lot better because he gets to drink and be around his women. I really liked Tor. He brings a good bit of fun and humor to the story. When Noon joins the duo, her dynamic with Tor was amazing. They don’t like each other at first and that is mainly due to the history of their two people. As the story progresses, they begrudgingly begin to respect each other.Speaking of Noon, I really think she is the character we get to know the most. She is a fell-witch, which means she can take life energy from anything with a life source and use it to create this powerful fire called winnowfire. I loved this element of the story that Williams created. It was so interesting to slowly learn more about the fell-witches and their history and there is still so much we don’t know. Noon was a great character to choose to do this because she was very easy to root for. There is still so much we don’t know about the Winnowry, the place Noon is trying to escape though.“Any institution that claims to keep women locked up for their own good should be watched very close, in my opinion.”I can’t forget to talk about Vintage. She feels older than both Tor (she’s not) and Noon. She almost feels like a mother figure to them. She is a go-getter and she is so determined on her quest of learning more about the Jure'lia. There are these sections from Vintage’s journals before each chapter that helps build the world and I actually enjoyed reading all of them. Vintage is also on this mission in the hopes of finding someone very special to her. I really feel like she balanced out Tor and Noon, which was a nice touch.This was a story that I was engaged with the entire time while reading. The writing is so easy to get into and it flowed really well. I also think Williams did a great job with the multiple POVs, which is not always easy to do. I was equally invested in them all. I also felt that the pacing was pretty good. It does start off a little slow, but in no way would I say it was boring. The ending was especially paced well. It didn’t feel like Williams was rushing to get the ending out.Speaking of the ending, I absolutely loved the way this ended. It didn’t exactly end in a cliffhanger, but it ended in a way that makes me so excited and anxious to pick up the sequel. There were some really cool elements introduced, including some new creatures. Did I forget to mention that there are huge bats that can be ridden? They are amazing!I could go on and on with how much I loved this. I’ll just end it with, if you haven’t picked this up yet and you’re looking for a unique, Adult Fantasy, I’d get to it honestly.“So much of Sarn is poisoned, twisted and strange, thanks to the influence of the Jure’lia. I want to find out why, Fell-Noon, and to stop it, if I can.” PDF Ninth Rain Winnowing Flame Trilogy 1 (The Winnowing Flame Trilogy) english ebook ePUB Ninth Rain Winnowing Flame Trilogy 1 (The Winnowing Flame Trilogy) epub online [PDF] Downloads Ninth Rain Winnowing Flame Trilogy 1 (The Winnowing Flame Trilogy)
