Description

From the author of The Iron Druid Chronicles, a thrilling novel that kicks off a fantasy series with an entirely new mythology - complete with shape-shifting bards, fire-wielding giants, and children who can speak to astonishing beasts

Mother and warrior

Tallynd is a soldier who has already survived her toughest battle: losing her husband. But now she finds herself on the front lines of an invasion of giants, intent on wiping out the entire kingdom, including Tallynd’s two sons - all that she has left. The stakes have never been higher. If Tallynd fails, her boys may never become men.

Scholar and spy

Dervan is an historian who longs for a simple, quiet life. But he’s drawn into intrigue when he’s hired to record the tales of a mysterious bard who may be a spy or even an assassin for a rival kingdom. As the bard shares his fantastical stories, Dervan makes a shocking discovery: He may have a connection to the tales, one that will bring his own secrets to light.

Rebel and hero

Abhi’s family have always been hunters, but Abhi wants to choose a different life for himself. Embarking on a journey of self-discovery, Abhi soon learns that his destiny is far greater than he imagined: a powerful new magic thrust upon him may hold the key to defeating the giants once and for all - if it doesn’t destroy him first.

Set in a magical world of terror and wonder, this novel is a deeply felt epic of courage and war, in which the fates of these characters intertwine - and where ordinary people become heroes, and their lives become legend.

Includes a bonus PDF with a map, the Dramatis Personae, and additional resources.

“A spectacular work of epic fantasy...an absolute delight.” (Shelf Awareness)

“If you’re looking for some entertainment before Game of Thrones returns to television, this could be the series you need to read.” (Newsday)

“A genuine page-turner.” (Kirkus Reviews)

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"You'll laugh and cry and crave mustard as you're immersed in the literal magic of storytelling in Kevin Hearne's vivid new epic fantasy. I have experienced acute withdrawal symptoms since the book ended. I don't want to leave this world." (Beth Cato, author of Breath of Earth and The Clockwork Dagger)

"A Plague of Giants is an absorbing epic fantasy, with clever storytelling that allows its many threads to each feel important, personal, and memorable. I'm very much looking forward to the sequel!" (James Islington, author of The Shadow of What Was Lost)

Kevin Hearne never dissapoints

Kevin Hearne always quenches my thirst for a story that will take me away. He is gifted at weaving characters and their stories together into tapestries that I get list in again and again.

Yes!!

Such a complex world with its complicated magic and political systems. So many multi-faceted characters. Such a unique plot. And Luke Daniels singing.

I might be in love.

Xe Sands Ruins it.

I loved the Iron Druid series and Luke Daniels is a fantastic narrarator.

I gave up on this one 4 hours in.
Xe Sand's parts were unbearable. Another reviewer mentioned a mouth full of marbles and that's not far off the mark.
Her cadence feels rushed and makes listening a chore.

An Amazing Tale

I loved the idea of a great bardic tale and this really delivered. It was completely unique from anything I have ever listened to or read.

The beginning of a journey

A complex sorry but world building usually is. Now that I know the world the author is building I look forward to more adventures!
