About this listen

Stephen's god died on the longest day of the year....

Three years later, Stephen is a broken paladin, living only for the chance to be useful before he dies. But all that changes when he encounters a fugitive named Grace in an alley and witnesses an assassination attempt gone wrong. Now the pair must navigate a web of treachery, beset on all sides by spies and poisoners, while a cryptic killer stalks one step behind....

From the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author of Swordheart and The Twisted Ones comes a saga of murder, magic, and love on the far side of despair.

Oh man, I went into this book knowing absolutely nothing—and I’m so glad I did! I’d seen it recommended by a few BookTokers and had it sitting on my wishlist for ages. Now that I’ve finally read it, I can’t believe I waited so long! It was absolutely stunning. The characters have my whole heart.
It’s unlike anything I’ve read before. Some might find the plot slow or lacking in action, but I thought it struck the perfect balance—emotionally gripping while subtly hinting at a larger story unfolding. In my opinion, it was pure perfection.

Stunning book

My new fave author and set in the same world as her other books. Gorgeous way with words and wonderful believable characters. Give this one a go you won’t be disappointed (and get ready to buy all the others)

Brilliant

There’s just so much to love about this cleverly crafted story - from the beautiful and humorous writing, to the richly detailed world building, and then the delightful and heartwarming characters. Throw in an assassination attempt, a serial killer and a court trial, and you’ve got yourself a most intriguing storyline.

Who knew that a sock knitting Paladin and an unassuming perfumer would have my complete and undivided attention, while listening to narrator Joel Richards bring this book to life. I’m so intrigued by what happens next that I’m going to check out book two now

Beautifully Written Story

I like the banter and internal monologue of the characters. vulnerable heros who you can empathise with. The narrator does an awesome job

Great humour and character development.

If you’re looking for a story of real, flawed and broken people facing up to the cruel realities of life while keeping their sense of humour and their integrity, you could do far worse. This story touched my heart in ways few have in recent years.

Beautiful, heartwarming story

it's. just. better. it makes so much more sense that people in their 30s have a career history, don't need to wade through a 'training montage chapter progresssion' and have lived experience and associated traumas. it's. just. better. good book, good story, easy listen.

All fantasy should have adult protagonists from now on.

This is a brilliant novel that manages to be laugh-out-loud funny, moving, and absorbing. Romance and intrigue with a dash of magic.

Fantastic

Nice romance apart from the slightly creepy baddie. Good story about gaining courage. Great sense of humour.

Enjoyable

Really enjoyed it. It got gross and gory but was still such a heartwarming read. Not quite cozy fantasy, but really close.

The stakes were real but such a warming story

Two flawed people with complicated pasts find each other. Once of the best examples of positive handling of PTSD. Lots of quirky characters, funny (and terrible) situations and intrigue. Will be reading the next one in the series.

Sweet story
