“What if the life you lived was never yours?”

Since Aaron’s youth, the mission was always his focus. Infiltration, assassination, any job that involved putting a price on someone’s head—he’d been trained to execute them flawlessly. But, as the bodies began to pile up and the grip of the organization tightened like a chain around him, something else tugged him in the other direction. Eventually, he decided to make a change—he chose to take his life back in his own hands, even if he wasn’t sure what to do with it.

But change, as it often does, came in an unexpected way. On a mission gone awry, death claimed him. However, death wasn’t the end.

Aaron woke again, transported to a reality unlike his own. Reborn into high nobility in a magical world, he finds himself with a new opportunity to thrive, but it is not without trials. Before he can truly claim this life as his own, he must first end the exile that has been thrust upon him.

In this world offering a second chance, where will his journey take him? Join Aaron as he discovers his path in this new life.

Awesome story. Characters are really something, and the world building is amazing. At the start of the book it sometimes feels "too easy" for the MC, but nothing that hinders this amazing book too much. Definitely recommended!

I got the hardcover. Really solid quality and it looks just as good in person. Is it the best fantasy I’ve ever read? No. But it's definitely good for sure. I'm excited to see where it goes next. Would totally recommend if you're into big fantasy stories.

Asteria: A World Unbound was one of the most enjoyable reading experiences I’ve had in recent years. It definately broke the mold for this genre in an extremely refreshing way, with several converging storylines and subplots in a well-paced package with twists and turns I wasn't expecting. There was scarcely a character I was not interested in or wanted to know more about. I could not put it down and I doubt you will be able to as well. It's peak.

Just got the softcover and wow, it looks amazing! It’s way bigger than I expected, and the pages feel like really nice quality too. I’ve only read maybe half the book so far, but this already feels like a hidden gem.

This book is deceptively simple at first – once you get into the later half of it the questions really start. I would have loved to read this with book club & who knows – it might be on the table one of these months. I’d love to toss theories around with them – I have several written down in my notes haha. Overall, pretty good.

I got an early copy, and I’ve gotta say, this is definitely one of the better books I’ve read. I’m usually more into science fiction, but this hit that perfect in-between spot. Really enjoyed it!

I’ve read just over 130 books so far this year, and this one is my favourite. I was fortunate enough to get an early copy, and it has delievered. This has a blend of genres that makes familiar tropes feel fresh, with interesting characters and an engaging story, I’m excited to see where this goes if the series continues.
