Calwyn has lived all her life within the isolated safety of Antaris, learning the ice magic of the priestesses, tending to her bees, and dreaming of the world beyond the Wall — a world that feels beyond her grasp, until one day she discovers a man lying unconscious within the Wall.
The stranger, Darrow, tells her of the fear and hatred that hold sway in the Outlands, where the magical arts of chantment are steadily disappearing and where one man seeks to conquer all the chantments to become Emperor of all Tremaris. If they hope to stop the ruthlessly ambitious sorcerer Samis, they’ll have to gather other chanters willing to make a unified stand … before time runs out and Samis catches up with them.
The Singer of All Songs has been described as reminiscent of classic fantasies like A Wizard of Earthsea and The Hero and the Crown. While I haven’t read either of those stories yet, there is a certain classic, nostalgic feel to Constable’s writing. With its simple prose, vast world, and unique magic, The Singer of all Songs is a tale that will likely appeal to a younger audience looking for an adventure.
Rated: Mild. For general peril. Violence includes some injuries and death.
