Kings of the Wyld by Nicholas Eames
4.0
The reviews I've seen tell me that the group of mercenaries in this book is supposed to echo the music bands of the 70s - now this could be my imagination but I swear I noticed a few nods to Queen in there! Anyway, I really, really liked this book. The friendship and the bond between this band of mercenaries was very refreshing to read. I loved the humour in it too, which is an added bonus I wasn't quite expecting. The characters are morally grey, reminding me very much of Abercrombie's characters from The Blade Itself. It also reminded me in parts of The Hitchhiker's Guide because really random things kept happening. Very enjoyable, overall!
