Summary
A city threatened by unimaginable horrors must trust their most hated outcast, or lose everything, in this crushing epic fantasy debut.
After 10 years on the run, dodging daemons and debt, reviled magician Edrin Walker returns home to avenge the brutal murder of his friend. Lynas had uncovered a terrible secret, something that threatened to devour the entire city. He tried to warn the Arcanum, the sorcerers who rule the city. He failed. Lynas was skinned alive and Walker felt every cut. Now nothing will stop him from finding the murderer.
Magi, mortals, daemons, and even the gods - Walker will burn them all if he has to. After all, it wouldn't be the first time he's killed a god....

Good story, but that accent!
A great, original story. I do wish they’d chosen a better narrator. This one has a weird accent and pronunciation which becomes more and more noticeable and irritating as the book goes on.

Tried to get through it..
Having listened to the authors most recent book and really enjoyed I thought I would try this one…
Lots of reviews stating the narration is bad and I thought…. It’ll be ok.. but no..
The narration is terrible.. it sounds like the narrator is English so he should know what a London accent sounds like.. he has no clue.. this is sick van dyke ‘cockney’ thrown in with Mary popping and Oliver.
I gave up after 3 hours.. the story is ok, little bit weak and predictable.. it may have got better but it was an early abort due to the performance.

It was fine.
Not a bad book. Interesting world building but it just didn’t totally grab me. I’m afraid other commenters are right about the narrator. Sometimes he’s South African, sometimes he’s Australian and usually he’s Dick Van Dyke when he needn’t have done an accent at all.

Thoroughly Enjoyed the Story
Enjoyed the story, but I wish I had bought the book and read it. The narrator is absolutely appalling, butchering pronunciation of the English language so badly it's painful at times.

great story. questionable accent.
yea, I loved the story. the main character is a great antihero who you can really get behind.
I feel like the story would have been better served had the voice actor not committed to a baffling accent for the duration. sounds like a watered down Jack Sparrow. got used to it in the end but nearly turned me off the book.

Certainly Different
This was not what I expected. The narrator was OK (just), not the worst I've heard, but by no means the best, and the story was sort of engaging, in an odd way. It could have been so much better. But in my humble opinion it lacked something. I listened to the second book 'The God of Broken Things', and I have to admit this book is the better of the two (which isn't saying much). It seemed to me that the author filled in gaps in the story with fights scenes. I've listened to worse books, but I've definitely heard better. Not one I'd recommend to a friend

Dark and Gritty
I loved this. It was dark, Violent and full of drama. It was everything I wanted I a fantasy book, and I didn't even know it. As silly as this sounds, it was very "real". No flawless heros.

boring 😴 tried 3 times couldn't get I to the story
boring 😴 tried 3 times couldn't get I to the story so I gave up. tried to return but would t allow me. what a waste of credit.. unfair... Audible can afford to allow returns more often when books like this are SO bad 👎 ?

A callous man kills a god
What a great story. A great level of coarse sarcasm without it being too ‘edgy’ or annoying. Great characters with a sense of realism, really brought to life with the voice acting. Just a damn good listen.
