Overview

There are only a few productive things a man can do once he picks up a sword. And the very lowest of these is to become an adventurer, like Lenk and his companions. For the right price, no deed is too dirty, no task is too dangerous, no foe too ferocious. Not even a demon. From wars ancient and terrible, wounds are bleeding. From seas deep and fathomless, demons are rising. From the mouth of hell, the Kraken Queen is calling. And all that stands between the damned and the mortal world are a pack of degenerates and the steel they carry. Seas will rise. Heaven will fall. Now, for the first time the breakout trilogy by Sam Sykes is collected in one volume.

-Playful language, distinctly drawn characters, and a cavalcade of action.---SF Signal on The City Stained Red

Playful language, distinctly drawn characters, and a cavalcade of action. --SF Signal on The City Stained Red Excitement, vivacity, and sly wit... simply impossible not to enjoy. --RT Book Reviews (4.5 Stars) on The City Stained Red Sam Sykes continues to reinvent the fantasy adventuring party in a vibrant world of rude magic and good intentions gone bad. Bold and exuberant, never cynical, Sykes fights the good fight on behalf of rich fantasy that nonetheless refuses to apologize for being kick-ass fun. --Scott Lynch on The City Stained Red An entertaining blend of classic adventure and inventive inspiration. --Juliet E. McKenna, author of The Thief's Gamble, on The City Stained Red Sykes has put the fun back in fantasy with fantastic creatures and a lovable crew of malcontents. The City Stained Red is like David Eddings meets Conan the Barbarian. --Brian McClellan on The City Stained Red Action fantasy with soul -- albeit a small, dirty, funny soul. --Brent Weeks on The City Stained Red Insouciant, unrepentant and irrepressible adventures in a powder keg of a city. And that's just how the story begins. --Robin Hobb on The City Stained Red
