Reviews" The Devils is just an incredibly fun, incredibly action-packed and, by the end, incredibly affecting book. It slammed the living shit out of me."--Tamsyn Muir, New York Times bestselling author of Gideon the Ninth "Joe Abercrombie is, to me, the undisputed master of creating deep, distinct characters that leap off the page, and never more so than in The Devils . This book is hilarious, profound, tragic, and so thrillingly paced one scarcely has time to breathe between one calamitous adventure and the next. I loved every page, and can't wait to see where the story goes from here. Straight to hell, I hopefully suspect!"--Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld "Deliciously wicked, surprisingly moving. The Dirty Dozen , but fantasy, and with literal monsters. An irresistible vampire, an undying knight, a not-to-be-f***ed with librarian, and the lustiest, most killy, most entertaining werewolf in fantasy or horror conspire to elevate a turdish thief to the throne of empire in this razor-sharp, genre-bending romp. Abercrombie's best to date. Beware!"--Christopher Buehlman, USA Today bestselling author of The Blacktongue Thief " The Devils is Joe Abercrombie at his best: exciting, witty, vicious. History buffs (like me!) will love the fantasy-historical setting overflowing with brilliant little details."--Django Wexler, author of How to Become a Dark Lord and Die Trying Praise for the works of Joe Abercrombie: "Bloody and relentless."George R. R. Martin "Bold and authentically original."Jeff VanderMeer "If you're fond of bloodless, turgid fantasy with characters as thin as newspaper and as boring as plaster saints, Joe Abercrombie is really going to ruin your day. A long career for this guy would be a gift to our genre."Scott Lynch "Imagine The Lord of the Rings as directed by Kurosawa."Lev Grossman "Magnificent, richly entertaining."TIME "There is a gritty edge to his world and an awareness of the human cost of violence that is very contemporary."The Times "[Abercrombie has] begun breaking his own rules. And succeeding wildly at it . . . . [R]arely has Abercrombie had so much fun while rollicking through his colorful cast's foibles and witty dialogue--and rarely has he dished out so much straight-for-the-heart poignancy."The A.V. Club "Abercrombie writes fantasy like no one else."The Guardian, " The Devils is just an incredibly fun, incredibly action-packed and, by the end, incredibly affecting book. It slammed the living shit out of me."--Tamsyn Muir, New York Times bestselling author of Gideon the Ninth "Devilish fun, an unholy delight. Wielding his trademarked grit and stiletto-sharp prose, Abercrombie is at his bloody best weaving a tale of monstrous heroes who discover the humanity in themselves."--Pierce Brown, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising "Mixing the central conceit of Suicide Squad with Hammer horror vibes, as viewed via the lens of alternate history, The Devils is a gore splattered roller coaster ride from start to finish. Probably the most fun you can have reading a fantasy novel."--Anthony Ryan, New York Times bestselling author of Blood Song "Joe Abercrombie is, to me, the undisputed master of creating deep, distinct characters that leap off the page, and never more so than in The Devils . This book is hilarious, profound, tragic, and so thrillingly paced one scarcely has time to breathe between one calamitous adventure and the next. I loved every page, and can't wait to see where the story goes from here. Straight to hell, I hopefully suspect!"--Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld "Bloody, eloquent, and so f***ing charming!"--Hildur Knútsdóttir, author of The Night Guest "Deliciously wicked, surprisingly moving. The Dirty Dozen , but fantasy, and with literal monsters.
