Summary

The small village of Untheim has a big problem. Folk go missing with alarming frequency. Even more alarming? They turn up dead. And a young girl’s just disappeared.

Sir Luther Slythe Krait also has a big problem. He’s stuck in Untheim. Penniless and poor and on his last legs, Sir Luther shoulders the task of tracking down the missing girl. The good news? He finds her. The bad? She’s heading home in a box.

And that’s just the start.Bound by oath to hunt down the girl’s killer, Sir Luther treks through town and wilderness, hounding the populace, ferreting leads, and drawing back the shroud of a decades-old secret privy to a select few. It’s a dark secret, and those few want it kept that way.

Will Sir Luther find the killer? Will he exact justice? An eye for an eye? A head for a head? Or will the head lost be his own?

Listen to The Definition of Vengeance and experience the horror and black humor of the third installment of the grimdark detective series, The Serpent Knight Saga.

Dark and fantastic.

Boom, Sir Luther Slythe Krait is back with a bang in this dark humoured medieval fantasy mystery sensation. A fantastically told story that is enthralling from the very first page to the last. What I love about this series is the dark setting, detail, and the erie feeling you get when reading these books.

The Definition Of Vengeance is the third book in The Serpent Knight Saga, and this series just gets better with each book. Kevin Wright has created an engrossing read that is part horror, part fantasy, and detective story that brings our main protagonist through the hells of medieval Europe.

The Main protagonist Sir Luther Slythe Krait is a justiciar, a judge, jury and executioner, whose sense of justice, honed by long training and hunting outlaws, have forged him into a peerless warrior and merciless hunter and the biggest sarcastic bastard you will ever meet.

Kevin Wright's worldbuilding and storytelling are excellent, full of witty dialogue throughout that will keep you very entertained. If you love your fantasy to be Grimdark with lots of twists and turns, then look no further.

Sir Luther Slythe Krait finds himself in the back arse hole of Untheim. Penniless and poor and on his last legs, when approached by a father, he asks Sir Luther to help track down his missing daughter. Good news? He finds her. The bad? She’s heading home in a box.

But there is something afoot in Untheim. People have been going missing for the last few years at an alarming rate. What's even more alarming? They turn up dead, ripped and shredded, and the young girl’s just the latest victim of whatever is prowling the small village.

Can Sir Luther work his detective magic and uncover the culprit or end up the coroners slab, read it, and find out, and you will in for a dark and gruesome treat.

Kevin Wright nails it again. If you liked the first two books you won’t be disappointed. I can't highly recommend this series enough. I'm looking forward to book four Terminus Rex....😁🔥🖤💀🐺
