What’s the weather like where you are? It’s high summer for me, with temperatures reaching a blistering 18C and sea-swimming looking good in waters with a surface temperature of 12C… which probably explains why I enjoyed reading a book set in the freezing heart of winter: reminded me a lot of cold water shock. Winter Be My Shield is the start of an epic fantasy trilogy by Australian author Jo Spurrier, first published in 2012. I picked up this volume after Aliette de Bodard recommended me another work by the same writer ( A Curse of Ash and Embers) and hell, was this Spurrier’s debut? It’s pretty damn impressive, and I could wish I’d heard of it sooner.
