Speaking Swords: A Riveting Review. “Truesilver,” is the first book in The SwordSpeaker Saga by DJ Edwardson. This exciting read is a thrilling fantasy adventure that introduces us to Kion, a young man with a remarkable gift: the ability to speak to swords.

One of the things that makes “Truesilver” so engaging is Kion himself. He’s a relatable character, struggling to understand his place in the world and to come to terms with his abilities. Along the way, he forms deep bonds with his mentor, Zinder, and his sister,Tiryn, who help him grow and evolve throughout the story.
The world of Four Wards is vividly realized, with rich descriptions. This brings its cities, forests, and ruins to life. Edwardson has a talent for creating a sense of place that makes you feel like you’re right there alongside the characters. Allowing the reader to experience their adventures firsthand.
