Why You Should Read...THE ROYAL CHAMPION!!!

one of the things I loved about the scent is we get a lot of characters who are in intent but missing in lament kind of show up back in descent

I would say read swordsman's lament first then go back and read swordsman's intent because it kind of refocuses the book and puts it in A New Perspective because it is a prequel

he has to prove his innocence and that means escaping from jail and going on you know an adventure to try and figure out why he's being framed for this crime and what is going on it's very fantastic read
