Thank you to Quercus Books for this ARC ❤️
I've had this ARC for a few months now and I was sooo wrong to put off reading it until now!! Honestly, this is one of the best books I've read this year! I also had a copy of The Malevolent Seven that I hadn't yet read. I read both books in one weekend and now can't wait to read Sebastien's other books 📚
This book was described as Terry Pratchett x Deadpool and I can't think of a better way to describe Sebastien de Castell's writing. Given that Terry Pratchett is the author who got me into Fantasy books as a preteen and has held my book loving heart since, there's no way I wouldn't have enjoyed this series!
The plot was so unpredictable and the banter is hilariously shocking and dark (I love it). It's hard to discuss the plot and characters without spoilers. My favourite characters are definitely Temper and Corrigan and you'll understand why when you read this (and don't put it off like I did, pick it up now).
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see this as an anime show 🗡️
