About this listen

‘The Malice was entertaining and riveting, with almost never a dull moment. … Do yourself a favour, buy this book. And the first one, too, if you don’t already own it. You will regret nothing.’ – Geeks of Doom

In the south, the Breach stirs.

Gamma’s sword, the Malice, wakes, calling to be taken to battle once more.

But the Vagrant has found a home now, made a life and so he turns his back, ignoring its call.

The sword cries out, frustrated, until another answers.

Her name is Vesper.

not quite the genius of the first book but still worthwhile. characters a bit directionless at times and none as well liked as Goat.

Brilliant narration. Best I have heard for ages.

Story has some great concepts but is written so poorly it becomes a chore to follow. The main character also makes some ridiculous decisions that only occurred to progress the story. With all the potential, it's really a shame.

Meandering writing
