grimdark_dad's review
Features one of the most disgusting & completely unnecessary scenes of animal cruelty I’ve ever read. No thanks.

"As she marched through the forest with the might of her clan at her back she felt the stirrings of bloodlust again, the likes of which she had not felt in years. She hoped the strange humans would prove a worthy challenge."
The Maleficent Seven by Cameron Johnston is what happens when the world is all out of heroes, leaving only villains.
Big thanks to the radical folks over at Angry Robot Books for sending me a copy!
Black Herran is a demonologist who, on the brink of victory which would have given her incredible power, abandoned her army some forty years ago.
Now, the battle calls to her once again.
IT'S TIME TO GET THE GANG BACK TOGETHER!!
Along with Black Herran, the group includes a necromancer, pirate queen, vampire, alchemist, a war god & an orc leader. This motley crew doesn't trust one another, sometimes they even plot against each other, but they must come together in order to take down a brutal new enemy.
Blood, banter & battles! SO MANY BATTLES!
The Maleficent Seven is one wickedly entertaining ride! It's stabby, sweary & has a dark sense of humor. Needless to say, I am a fan!
CW: As expected, there is... a lot. Extreme violence, gore, animal torture, mutilations, religion & PTSD. The Maleficent Seven is an adult grimdark fantasy novel about villains. There are no *good* people in this story.
