About this ebook
'Just plain awesome . . . Innovative magic, quick-paced plot, interesting world. I had a blast' Brandon Sanderson on Promise of Blood
Field Marshal Tamas's invasion of Kez has ended in disaster. Stranded behind enemy lines and hounded by the enemy's finest, Tamas must lead his remaining men on a reckless retreat through northern Kez to safety.
In Adro, Inspector Adamat wants only to rescue his wife. To do so, he must hunt down and confront the enigmatic Lord Vetus - but the truth he learns is far darker than he could have imagined.
The god Kremsimir wants the head of Tamas's son, Taniel - the man who shot him in the eye. With Tamas and his powder mages presumed dead, only Taniel can lead the charge against the vengeful god and his invading army.
Praise for the series:
'Gunpowder and magic. An explosive combination' Peter Brett
'Brings a welcome breath of gunpowder-tinged air to epic fantasy' Anthony Ryan

Second book of the powder mage trilogy, proved to be another great book. It has kept me reading. Losing a little sleep too, since it been difficult to put it away. Will move on to the third book. Must admit that I thought the first book was slightly better.

The first book was good but hot damn the second one was enthralling! Mad, crazy hectic pace with action on every page and a plot that sucks you in and won't let go. Gonna get the third right now!

This book had way more depth than the first part. The jump between characters and their different stories was more smoother this time around.
