Malice
by John Gwynne
Our rating
Spice: none. Darkness: dark.
Corban is a blacksmith's son who wants to be a warrior, and a war between fallen angels is brewing behind the human kingdoms. Old-fashioned epic fantasy that takes a while to warm up. Book one is a slow build, books two through four hit harder.

Is Malice spicy?
No. Malice has no sex on the page. If there's romance it stays at kissing or happens off-page, so it's a safe pick if you want zero spice.
