Armorica or Aremorica is the name given in ancient times to the part of Gaul between the Seine and the Loire that includes the Brittany Peninsula, extending inland to an indeterminate point and down the Atlantic Coast. The toponym is based on the Gaulish phrase are-mori "on/at sea", made into the Gaulish place name Aremorica "Place by the Sea".

Fifty years ago, Armorica stood on the brink of destruction, held at the throat by daemons and their cohorts. An unlikely alliance of heroes arose, sending the aggressors back to the hell from which they had come. Now, long after the Daemon War has ended, the signs return, hinting of an unforeseen darkness approaching on the horizon. Boryn Mhinbron, a mischievous young street thief living in the capital city of Dusgoroth, makes a single impulsive choice that triggers a whirlwind of change. Accompanied by his friends on a perilous journey to manhood, Boryn encounters power and pride, evil and honor, justice and redemption - and he begins to uncover the role each must play as he walks the blurry line between light and dark. Lighthearted at times, grim at others, Armoiica is a sweeping, complex high fantasy in the spirit of Tolkien with a fast, exciting pace. Enter the world. Meet its inhabitants. This is only the beginning . . .

It does not matter how much pieces you have, the main thing is how they are placement! Armorica Joseph Hughes 9781933651637 Books. Well, Joseph Hughes you are true to your word, and you did not disappoint. From the moment Boryn is introduced, one can not help but feel the mischief radiating from this complex character; and with the birth of the Shadow Crusaders, you find yourself along for the ride.

However, the further I immersed myself in this world, the easier it became to change from one characters POV to another, and then another, and back again. This type of writing shows true dedication to each character, and it leaves something to be desired for other books.

I must say, Armorica is a much better book. The story line is as original as you can find these days. The character development is superb. I can't wait for the rest of the series! If you loved the Farseer Trilogy, you'll love this series. There is no universal right or wrong you see in a lot of other stale and dated series. Each character has their own fluid version of morality based on their upbringing and goals. Not a book to be missed. I was about to go on a nine-hour bus ride across Germany and desperately needed something to read, so a friend of mine recommended this book. I asked if they had anything else, because who was Joseph Hughes and what the hell is Amorica? He refused to lend me anything else and told me to just read it. We are both fantasy nerds, so I figured I could trust him a little. After him forcing me to take it, I pretty much decided that I wasn't going to even read it and just try to fall asleep on the bus. Long story short, I wasn't able to get any sleep on the bus ride at all. I made the mistake of reading Armorica. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. I found myself wanting to read more and more about Boryn. The other characters are great, too, but I was especially excited when the chapters brought focus back to Boryn. The Daemon war, the Shadow Crusaders, the goofy duo that got stuck together, all of it was great! Joseph Hughes, whoever you are, keep 'em coming! [ASIN1933651636 Armorica]]8&psc=1.
