This is an amazing second chapter than somehow manages to out-grimdark the first book.

I like how the Crow-God imprinted a tattoo on Ryholt that can tear through his flesh to give him a message. Very creative! I don’t think I’ve come across something like that in another series.
The Unnamed Gods, Deep Kings, and weird misery creatures have no explanation of where they come from, how they rule, or why people should care about them. This info is severely lacking. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to matter a whole lot. Since Ryholt doesn’t seem to need the info then we don’t either (even though backstory would’ve been appreciated).
I loved the tag along raven in this 2nd book. He was great and added snark. I enjoyed his berating of Ryholt. I also like the Darling turned blind little boy old man who was a drunk. What a sight to see an angry drunk 10 year-old looking kid with a vulgar potty mouth.
I’m really looking forward to the next book and having Amira play a larger part. She turns the curmudgeonly Ryholt into a soft teddy bear.
I’m off to start listening to #3.
Satisfyingly dark

Looking forward to starting the last installment and of course, I won't pass up listening to Colin Mace. He captures the personalities perfectly and Galharrow himself, could have no other voice.
The perfect grimdark series

This book is set about 4 years after the events of the first book. Ryhalt is still the leader of Blackwing and is working with his group. He knows things that would be dangerous if others found out but he knows how to keep things to himself when necessary. This book jumps right into the action with Ryhalt leaving a meeting in a rather unconventional manner just to stay alive. When he sees a man that he is sure he recently killed, he knows that something is going on. Plus there is the small matter of an important and powerful item that goes missing. I knew that Ryhalt had his work cut out for him.
This book was just as dark and bloody as I expected it to be after reading the previous installment. The story is set in a cruel world where things can and often do go wrong. Things are rather desperate at times and I was more than a little worried about the safety of all of the key characters. I loved the way that the reader has a chance to really get to know these characters better in this installment. A lot of the book is centered solely on Ryhalt and I felt that his actions showed exactly what kind of man he is. I thought that a couple of other characters important in his life were wonderfully developed so that they had a bigger impact on the overall story.
Colin Mace was the perfect narrator for this book. If you had asked me what Ryhalt Garharrow sounded like after reading the first book, I couldn't have come up with anything that fits better than this narrator. I think that he really was able to bring this story to life. His reading added excitement, desperation, hope, and uncertainty of the story when appropriate. I believe that his narration added to my overall enjoyment of the story and I plan to listen to more of his work.
I would highly recommend this story to others. It is a gritty fantasy that is well crafted and entertaining. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series!
I received a digital review copy of this book from Berkley Publishing Group via NetGalley and I purchased a copy of the audiobook.
Dark and wonderful!
