Description

Acclaimed author Sam Sykes returns with a brilliant new epic fantasy that introduces an unforgettable outcast mage caught between two warring empires.

Her magic was stolen. She was left for dead.

Betrayed by those she trusts most and her magic ripped from her, all Sal the Cacophony has left is her name, her story, and the weapon she used to carve both. But she has a will stronger than magic and knows exactly where to go.

The Scar, a land torn between powerful empires, where rogue mages go to disappear, disgraced soldiers go to die and Sal went with a blade, a gun, and a list of seven names.

Revenge will be its own reward.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"With skillful worldbuilding, unexpected humor, and characters real enough to touch, this is easily Sykes's best book to date."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Sykes is a master at taking familiar elements of fantasy and stirring them to a wicked, wholly original churn. In Sal the Cacophony, Sykes has crafted a protagonist for the ages. Ludicrous, wicked, delightful."—Pierce Brown, New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising

"Seven Blades in Black offers villains that are as memorable and unique as the heroes. Action, magic, romance and humor mingle well in this mammoth tale. It's an immersive read in a well realized world."—Robin Hobb, New York Times bestselling author of Fool's Assassin

would actually read again

really enjoyed this book. the narrator is great, and the slow reveal off the characters past throughout the book was very satisfying and made me want to go back and start from the beginning with the new perspective. which I did

I tried hard not to hate this audiobook, but it wasn’t easy.

The narrator is mush-mouthed and can’t pronounce many words in the English language, including anything more than three syllables long. Unfortunately some of the most frequently used names in the book, including the main character, her ‘big shit-kicking gun’, and her pet giant bird, are more than three syllables.

I got fixated on her pronunciation of ‘body’ and started to cringe each time I heard her say ‘my bowdtee’.

The author seems addicted to a couple formulaic writing devices, and he uses over and over and over and over, till you realize that the writing is just going to be the same repetitive thing right to the end.

Basically the book consists of the main character kicking ass, with her big gun. That’s it. Supposed to be like Jorg Ancrath, only not nearly as smart.

I waded all the way through to the end only to find out that it’s only the first book in a series. What? Why?

Scratching up a few positive things to say- the narrator has some potential. If she got her hands on a dictionary that would be a big help.

The author also has potential. While it’s mostly just a bunch of cliches with an incomprehensible plot, the book does have a few clever lines and ideas in it. If it could have been edited down to about 1/10 of the length it would be more palatable.
