[Slow burn; the early chapters may not be very satisfying, but things get exciting later. Heartbreaking, Western fantasy, not a saintly protagonist, ruthless and decisive. If that’s not your thing, don’t read. A new author’s novel, so suggestions are welcome.]
A man burdened with grave sins loses everything before his death. Just when he thinks he has finally found release, fate plays a cruel joke and sends his soul to a battlefield in another world. What awaits him is a blood-soaked asura hell, a cruel and bitter world, or a glorious royal road to the throne? Perhaps all three. This is a lament woven from soul and sin, a legend forged in sword and blood.
