About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Reaper's Gale: The Malazan Book of the Fallen 7 by Steven Erikson, read by Michael Page.

All is not well in the Letherii Empire. Rhulad Sengar, the Emperor of a Thousand Deaths, spirals into madness, surrounded by sycophants and agents of his Machiavellian chancellor, while the Letherii secret police conduct a campaign of terror against its own people. The Errant, once a farseeing god, is suddenly blind to the future. Conspiracies seethe throughout the palace, as the empire - driven by the corrupt and self-interested - edges ever-closer to all-out war with the neighbouring kingdoms. And the great Edur fleet - its warriors selected from countless peoples - draws ever closer. Amongst them are Karsa Orlong and Icarium Lifestealer - each destined to cross blades with the emperor himself. That yet more blood is to be spilled is inevitable... Against this backdrop, a band of fugitives seek a way out of the empire, but one of them, Fear Sengar must find the soul of Scabandari Bloodeye. It is his hope that it might help halt the Tiste Edur, and so save his brother, the emperor. Yet, travelling with them is Scabandari's most ancient foe: Silchas Ruin, brother of Anomander Rake. And his motives are anything but certain - for the wounds he carries on his back, made by the blades of Scabandari, are still fresh. Fate decrees that there is to be a reckoning, for such bloodshed cannot go unanswered - and it will be a reckoning on an unimaginable scale...
A brutal, harrowing novel of war, intrigue and dark, uncontrollable magic, this is epic fantasy at its most imaginative, storytelling at its most thrilling.

Do these books keep getting better or what. You think you love a character then boom another character you love comes along. Can’t wait to listen to the next one soon

Wow…what can I say that the readers of this epic do not already know, SE, clashes all (majority) of all our favourite characters into the book into the same realm, multiple convergences on each story arc of each character.

I do like they way some players of the game are taken out instead of drawing them all out, SE deals with them eloquently but gets straight back to the main thread of the story and doesn’t mess about with pages on what happens to their demise.

Leave a great lump in your throat and a tear in the eye on the last few chapters.

If your just about to start this epic then be prepared for a ride for one of the best books ever written….

Utter brilliance

What a great story and really well read. I'm glad I read the hard copies of this series first, I like to listen whilst cooking, mowing lawn etc so it would be too complex for a first read.

Excellent

I thoroughly enjoyed this one, for a change the ending didn't feel rushed unlike most of the series, it has all your favourite characters, one good battle scene and plenty of humour.
