Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Ogres are bigger than you. Ogres are stronger than you. Ogres rule the world.
It's always idyllic in the village until the landlord comes to call. Because the landlord is an Ogre. And Ogres rule the world, with their size and strength and appetites. It's always been that way. It's the natural order of the world. And they only eat people sometimes.
But when the headman's son, Torquell, dares lift his hand against the landlord's son, he sets himself on a path to learn the terrible truth about the Ogres, and about the dark sciences that ensured their rule.

A pleasant surprise
I ignored this book for some time, due to the blurb. It just seemed like a silly thing he'd written in between projects or something.
Well, I got bored and I bought it, because he is one of my favorite authors so why not.
It was bloody brilliant. You start the book, you think you see where he's going and it's kind of obvious and is it going to be ham fisted but of course it's not, because it's Adrian and it's brilliant yet familiar because it's just so damn human.
I think Adrian's books will be considered classic literature 100-200 years from now. Well, some of them anyway.

Very good!
A very good story that starts simple but gets more and more complex. Very good, thoroughly enjoyable. Another win for Adrian Tchaikovsky!
