Story4.5 out of 5 stars 477
Piper is a lich-doctor, a physician who works among the dead, determining causes of death for the city guard's investigations. It's a peaceful, if solitary profession . . . until the day when he's called to the river to examine the latest in a series of mysterious bodies, mangled by some unknown force. Galen is a paladin of a dead god, lost to holiness and no longer entirely sane. He has long since given up on any hope of love. But when the two men and a brave gnole constable are drawn into the maze of the mysterious killer, it's Galen's job to protect Piper from the traps that await.

Third verse same as the first
Reviewed: 06-18-22
I was wondering where the overarching story would go after the second books concluded the set up from the first book without another sequel hook. Turns out gay sex and a story that has not much to do with the previous books. Not that I’m complaining, these horny books could do with a change of sexual appetite. Next time, it should be a Palladian and a gnole.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,014
The youngest, half-goblin son of the Emperor has lived his entire life in exile, distant from the Imperial Court and the deadly intrigue that suffuses it. But when his father and three sons in line for the throne are killed in an "accident", he has no choice but to take his place as the only surviving rightful heir. Entirely unschooled in the art of court politics, he has no friends, no advisors, and the sure knowledge that whoever assassinated his father and brothers could make an attempt on his life at any moment.

This book is extremely sensitive
Reviewed: 08-06-21
While the fantasy words might be a bit confusing for some, I felt it easy to follow. This book is really sensitive and quiet. I loved listening to it.

The hope before the crash
Reviewed: 12-12-20
This book isn’t so much a narrative plot where you have a conclusive beginning middle and end. It’s really a impression of the Imperium before the Heresy. To that end, it’s tinged with sadness as you know the inevitable conclusion. Still, a interesting read and would recommend.
