“Gunslingers and mad mages and monsters, oh my. Sykes’ latest is a brutal and vulgar epic yet still fun enough that - and I say this as the highest of compliments - makes me wish like hell it ends up with an adaptation into a role-playing game.”–Chuck Wendig, New York Times bestselling author on Seven Blades in Black
“Reunites readers with the magnificently complex heroine Sal the Cacophony in a hair-raising adventure packed with action, wit, and feeling… This an unforgettable epic fantasy.”–Publishers Weekly
