The Unspoken Name is the debut novel of the author. It is a fantasy of a young priestess who was sentenced to die. But, just at the last minute, she was able to escape her fate, but only to become an assassin. She got that role for the wizard who saved her. But, what if she had some sort of an idea that how and when you will be dying?
Csorwe was the one who knows. She would climb right up the mountain and would enter the amazing Shrine of the Unspoken. Eventually, she would then gain the most in-demand and honored title of ‘sacrifice’.
However, on the date of her prophesized death, a highly resourceful mage came forward and offered her a completely new fate. The offer was to leave along with him and then just live her life.
Csorwe was expected to learn things very quickly and especially the fact that the gods remember. If you are the one who lives good or long enough then all of the debts would come due.
The author seemed to have dragged this story quite long in some of its parts. But overall, it was quite good.
