Story
Tobin's domination of Hesh has left him feeling empty, the cost of victory too high. A recurring nightmare drives him to learn the one truth that could ease his heart. Just when he thinks he may have found peace, an unlikely foe pushes him back into a life he wanted to avoid. A High Mage is on the cusp of victory when a power he did not anticipate reveals itself. Rattled, his aggressive strategy changes to one of caution. He searches for a way to overcome the new threat while guarding himself against traitors among his would-be allies.

When the Vikings slaughter a female Alma, they soon find themselves in the middle of a battle with vicious creatures bent on bloody revenge. Now they must stand and be counted, for destiny awaits in the mountains, where the hairy ones dance.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Fascinating Prequel Trilogy
- By Beth.any on 06-01-22

Publisher's Summary
A Warleader proves his worth, a High Mage seeks revenge, a Commander overcomes his past, and a Queen solidifies her rule.
On the continent of Hesh, Tobin has finally gained the two things that have always been out of his reach—the respect of his clan and a woman’s love. He now seeks to finish what his father began. When Tobin faces an enemy he never knew to suspect, he is left questioning not only his ability to rule, but also his sanity.
A High Mage has been humbled, but he has not been defeated. After spending his time devouring the history of Hesh, he’s discovered a way to return home and reclaim what was once his. But before he exacts revenge on his enemies, he fulfills an obligation to his one remaining friend.
In the aftermath of great tragedy, Kaz has taken the role of commander, and with it, a mountain of headaches. He expected threats from his enemies. He did not expect the largest headaches to come from within his own ranks. To make matters worse, the faded memories of Kaz’s previous life are returning and what he sees haunts him.
Queen Elyse’s kingdom faces collapse at the hands of a civil war. While her army has been organizing to secure the crown against traitorous lords, she has worked at her role as queen. Suspicion of traitors among the ranks of her council threatens to undermine Elyse's authority when a chance for peace presents itself.
A year after the events of Rise and Fall, Steel and Sorrow is the second book in the Blood and Tears Trilogy.

Book 2 continues to develop characters and story!
Joshua P. Simon did a great job with this series and book 2 makes it even better. The characters are well developed, unique, and relatable. The overall story is well written and a good read. The plot moves at a good pace, a great amount of action mixed with appropriate dialog. I look forward to book 3! Audio Version: Jonathan Waters continues to go a great job after developing the characters voices in book 1.

Great book!💜
This trilogy really sucked me in. During the first book I was unsure but then it ended in a way that I needed more. I’m not a fan of cliffhangers but since this series is already published I can forgive the author 😂
The turmoil and stress of war continues in the battles of the brothers. It’s an intriguing story because they don’t even know they are on opposite sides. All the characters are so much fun and clever I’m find myself drawn to each one. I’m not even sure who’s side of the war I’m on. The narration is absolutely amazing. Jon E Waters performs this story and each character with such skill that you truly feel like you’re living it. There’s sorrow & despair because let’s face it, it’s war so be prepared. This is book 2 and is not a standalone and must be read/listened in order. I recommend this book/series.

Author went to the same plot as most books
I was disappointed that the characters were so transparent in their agendas. It was Soo easy to see where story was going and where the evil characters were plotting. I do Not like a Story that is this transparent, because there is no erge to finish the book when it is obvious what is happening even though the Characters are blind to it all. I read/listen to a Story for entertainment not to get upset that the Characters can not see what is happening right in front of them.

Redemption, sacrifice, and ACTION
this second installing flows right along. the twists and turns keep coming and layers of plot are exposed. There are a lot of original ideas in this series and some classic action. Is it political? is it action? is there magic? is there love? the answer is yes. this book has everything a reader could want. I highly recommend the series and want to see more from this author in the future.

Blood and Tears
The story continues here in Steel and Sorrow. We follow the characters spread over the known world. Some step up and others are lost forever.
I am completely committed to this trilogy and I’m off to finish the conclusion to this trilogy.
The narrator does a great job. Especially the differentiation between the POV characters is awesome.
I recommend this book and audio.
