À propos de cet audio

The first book in The Last War series: a debut epic fantasy full of crunching revolutionary action, twisted magic, and hard choices in dark times.

The war is over. The enemy won.

Jia's people learned the hard way that there are no second chances. The Egril, their ancient enemy, struck with magic so devastating that Jia's armies were wiped out. Now terror reigns in the streets, and friend turns on friend just to live another day.

Somehow Tinnstra - a deserter, a failure, nothing but a coward - survived. She wants no more than to hide from the chaos.

But dragged into a desperate plot to retake Jia, surrounded by people willing to do anything to win the fight, this time Tinnstra will need to do more than hide.

If Jia is to get a second chance after all, this time she will need to be a hero.

With all the grit of Joe Abercrombie, Mark Lawrence and Ed McDonald, this is fantasy with the sharpest of edges.

Ce que les critiques en disent

Likely the next Game of Thrones, and the best book I've read in several years. Erikson, Martin and Rothfuss are going to have to shove over and make room at the bar . . . I can't think how to tone down my enthusiasm
Like Tarantino crossed with David Gemmell . . . Absolutely splendid. Shackle has come up with something really special here
Hooked from page one, We Are the Dead rattles along with the pace of a runaway bullet train. Original, engaging, flawed but very-human characters draw us into a world rent by war, a world of brutal occupation, tarnished honour and devastating magics. This is a powerful debut and Shackle is an author to watch
A masterpiece of a story about hope, resistance and fellowship
An adventure that's rich in darkness and bloodshed.
Fans of Joe Abercrombie and R.F. Kuang are sure to find something to love here
We Are the Dead is a staggering, marvellous and gripping fantasy debut
A barnstorming book of ordinary people dealing with extraordinary circumstances - great fun and very entertaining
Gripping, grim and glorious
An utter masterpiece
We Are the Dead is a fantasy novel that is able to blend the modern trends of dark fantasy with the magical styles of the past
A brutal showstopper of a novel
This is a good fun resistance story, featuring thoroughly horrible, and believable, occupiers
One of the best fantasy debuts in years
We Are the Dead is awesome. Memorable characters. One of the most sadistic villains I've ever encountered. Tightly woven action scenes that feel like something you'd see in a Micheal Mann film. I was gripped and loving it the entire time
An easy 5 stars from me . . . The tension ratchets up nicely as the best laid plans fall apart and people struggle to survive. The world building and characters fit together flawlessly
You can't write a debut novel much better than this
From start to finish this will keep you on the edge of your seat. This is an outstanding debut, you don't want to miss it.
A fantastic, enthralling debut. Imagine if Akira Kuworasawa and Joe Abercrombie wrote a fantasy thriller with a pace that moves at the speed of light
A fantastic story with unique characters that draw you in and don't let you go
A superb opening novel to The Last War series that takes you on a break-neck speed ride of plot twists, bloody battles and pain
Dark, brutal, wonderful
One of the best debuts I've read in ages. Original grimdark fantasy, wonderfully paced

I was listening and it felt strange. I do t know why but I tried reading it. LOVED IT
I don’t think Mike chose the best actor for the reading. She’s good, I just don’t think this particular book was made for her. Again I think she’s very good, not for this book is all.

Loved the book. Tough listen
