The gods are angry-and only one man can fend off their apocalypse-in the brutal sequel to The Last Sacrifice, from"the new prince of grimdark fantasy" (Christopher Golden, New York Times-bestselling author) Brogan McTyre and his compatriots are wanted, dead or alive. Preferably alive, so they can be sacrificed to the raging gods. All they can do is hire more mercenaries and turn them into a fearsome army. But warriors aren't enough when the gods bring Armageddon to the world, unleashing storms and madness, and ceaseless attacks on Brogan's men by increasingly demonic foes. Deep in the heart of the Broken Blades Mountains lies a sword containing the heart of a god slain in immortal combat, the one thing that might give Brogan an edge against the gods, but finding it isn't going to be easy . . .
Seriously, what a phenomenal second book! Everything that was so delightfully dark about The Last Sacrifice, James just wraps those thorny vines tighter around the plot. He proceeds to deepen it to a gripping degree throwing in mindbogglingly twisted horror elements.
Smorgasbord Fantasia
A wild adventure with plenty of action and bloodshed and just as with the first book, we have a conflict on a grand scalemortal men against the godswhich keeps the stakes high and exciting.
Looking for a Good Book
The novel once again demonstrates why James A Moore is at the forefront of the modern masters of sword and sorcery.
Book Wraiths
Moores creativity shines through with a new world, new pantheon, new monsters, new nations and continents. The characters live and breathe and pop from the pageoften with swords swinging.
Pauls Scribblings
Gripping, horrific, and unique, James Moore continues to be a winner, whatever genre he's writing in. Well worth your time.
Seanan McGuire, New York Timesbestselling author of the InCryptid and Toby Daye series
Moore has laid thegroundwork for a trilogy that promises to be loaded withterrifically grim fantasy storytelling. I might even call it epic. Thereis a lot of swift, merciless violence in this book, mingled withan undercurrentof very welcome, if very dark, humor. All of it together takes me back to what mademe giddy about epicfantasy way back when. Id say Im happy to be back, but Im not sure thats quite the right word for a book packed with this much violent incident. Lets say instead that Im bloody satisfied.
