The Seeker’s Son seeks you.

I was so pleased to have won this book in a Goodreads First Reads giveaway.
This is not usually a genre that I get to read that often, but am starting to like much more these days. This was a very enjoyable story and hope to read more books by this author. Recommended.

An exciting read with satisfying twists and turns. If you like sword and sorcery this is a great choice. lighter than three authors norm but no less wonderful.
S.M. Carrière has a way of building likeable characters that is unmatched.
Great book and for a good cause too.

Once again, this author does not disappoint. I got completely drawn in to this story, constantly wondering who the Stranger was, and staying up all hours to find out. A compelling fantasy story with incredibly well-crafted characters. Brava!

He wakes up with no memory, in the middle of nowhere, with the only clue to his origins the fact that he can walk the mystical Sky Road. Falling face-first into the riptide of political intrigue surrounding the empty throne of the Empire, the Sky Road Walker, as he becomes known, is faced with choices at every turn; choices that can bring unimaginable rewards or terrible fates. With no context and no memory, he makes them as best he can, relied upon by the powerful leaders of the Empire’s factions to advise them and make these decisions.
Sky Road Walker is a most enjoyable epic fantasy from author S. M. Carrière, featuring the well-loved fantasy themes of a usurped throne, a hidden heir, and a dangerous quest for a magical artifact. The world-building is solid and detailed, giving the plot a strong background, and the magic is never portrayed as an easy way out, which was a relief. Overall, the only implausible element was that the man with amnesia was at every turn, expected to make the choices on behalf of the leaders of armies and countries. While the plot turned around it, and the writing was plenty good enough to rate four stars anyway, that was the element that had me asking ‘...but why on earth...?’ all the way through. Despite that, I would recommend this read unhesitatingly to fans of fantasy – it’s a very good, well-written read.
