Welcome to Litsy!

Joe Abercrombie�s Best Served Cold meets George R. R. Martin�s A Game of Thrones in the final novel in Richard K. Morgan�s epic A Land Fit for Heroes trilogy, which burst onto the fantasy scene with The Steel Remains and The Cold Commands. Ringil Eskiath, a reluctant hero viewed as a corrupt degenerate by the very people who demand his help, has traveled far in search of the Illwrack Changeling, a deathless human sorcerer-warrior raised by the bloodthirsty Aldrain, former rulers of the world. Separated from his companions�Egar the Dragonbane and Archeth�Ringil risks his soul to master a deadly magic that alone can challenge the might of the Changeling. While Archeth and the Dragonbane embark on a trail of blood and tears that ends up exposing long-buried secrets, Ringil finds himself tested as never before, with his life and all existence hanging in the balance. Praise for The Dark Defiles �A finale that displays all the purposefully hard edges and grim magnificence that made the first two volumes stand out.��Kirkus Reviews �Morgan brings his mammoth A Land Fit for Heroes fantasy trilogy to a rousing conclusion. . . . Expect surprises and suspense, along with the usual derring-do and entertaining characters.��Booklist Praise for Richard K. Morgan and his acclaimed series, A Land Fit for Heroes �Bold, brutal, and making no compromises�Richard K. Morgan doesn�t so much twist the clich�s of fantasy as take an axe to them. Then set fire to them.��Joe Abercrombie �Morgan has taken traditional sword and sorcery tropes and given them a hard, contemporary kick. The anitithesis of the cosy fairytale, this one is for big boys.��The Times (London) �A crisp stylist who demonstrates equal facility with action scenes and angst.��The New York Times Book Review �A full-immersion experience, uncompromising and bleakly magnificent.��Kirkus Reviews From the Trade Paperback edition.
