About this listen

On the march, around the campfire, and in the taverns, they tell incredible stories about Tarmun Vykers, the Reaper - how he's never been cut in battle, how he once defeated hundreds of men by himself, how he exterminated an entire people over an insult. These stories make Vykers seem like a god, but he is a man, an arrogant, ruthless, and bloodthirsty man. For all that, he may be the only thing standing between the human race and utter annihilation at the hands of the mad wizard who calls himself the End-of-All-Things. Against this backdrop, smaller, lesser folks struggle to fulfill their own destinies, folks like Aoife, burdened with a secret so dark she is driven to do the unimaginable and seek an alliance with fey powers no mortal has ever encountered.

Are you a fan of Joe Abercrombie's First Law series, Steven Erikson's The Malazan Book of the Fallen, Glen Cook's Chronicles of the Black Company, or Patrick Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicle? If so, grab your copy of Steel, Blood & Fire now!

Author Q&A

Is this audiobook appropriate for children?

No, only 17+ please.

What types of creatures are in the book?

Several original creations, plus a few you know. There are ghosts and wizards, but not the typical ones found in most ghost novels and mage books, and the Fey here are more dangerous than in your average fairy books. If you enjoy edgier fantasy novels, then this is for you!

Is this a stand-alone novel, or part of a series?

This is book one in the Immortal Treachery series. It tells a complete story on its own, but subsequent books help tell a larger story.

A Great Dark Comedy Fantasy

Ok, I was hesitant to buy this audible even though it sounds like just my type of book, because of the other review's. Having finished the book and instantly bought the second I think the biggest problem is people coming at this expecting GoT, LoR and getting a Terry Pratchett/Mark Lawerence adventure instead. So if you like dark, twisted and funny, buy this book.

Now on the narrator.......

Look he takes some getting used to but he does a great job in the end and lends the book the humour it needs. Could clearly be improved with some editing. Not a bid deal in my book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
