About this listen

Crazy. Brutal. Unpredictable. And those are their good qualities. A pair of foul-mouthed mercenaries go on a suicide mission in this otherworldly fantasy.

After accepting a mission that no one wanted, He-Dog and Ballless travel the treacherous Lands of the South to the glittering city of Foust. There, they find the fabled walls under siege. A vicious, seething army of Beastmen surround the city, intent on sacking it and feasting upon every last citizen within. No one in their right mind would try to get past this mob. But He-Dog, Ball-less, and their companions aren’t in their right minds. Getting into Foust is utter madness. Getting out again is sure to get them killed.

Keith C. Blackmore’s madcap, grisly fantasy novel is perfect for fans of J. R. R. Tolkien and George R. R. Martin.

Lovers of dark fantasy (I.e. Black humour dominates a high fantasy world that is grey not good vs bad) will enjoy this book. Having had a break from Blackmore since the fantastic Mountain man books this was a very enjoyable listen.
Excellent job by Lee for narration.
There are parts dealing with addiction and hopelessness which I didn’t enjoy but they were very well written and worth enduring.
Some great banter and black humour throughout. The world isn’t pretentious and would be a good place to try a fantasy novel for those curious but put off by the main stables in the genre. Though, there is plenty of violence (not gratuitous, just visceral) so not for the faint hearted or young teens imho. Thanks

Lots of fun in a dark fantasy world
