Ebook About
"Just plain awesome" -- Brandon SandersonCivil unrest cripples the citizens of Adro in the aftermath of the revolution that obliterated the monarchy. Now, Field Marshal Tamas and his lieutenants must confront the true cost of freedom in book one of the Powder Mage Trilogy.It's a bloody business overthrowing a king. . .Field Marshal Tamas' coup against his king sent corrupt aristocrats to the guillotine and brought bread to the starving. But it also provoked war with the Nine Nations, internal attacks by royalist fanatics, and the greedy to scramble for money and power by Tamas's supposed allies: the Church, workers unions, and mercenary forces. It's up to a few. . .Stretched to his limit, Tamas is relying heavily on his few remaining powder mages, including the embittered Taniel, a brilliant marksman who also happens to be his estranged son, and Adamat, a retired police inspector whose loyalty is being tested by blackmail.But when gods are involved. . .Now, as attacks batter them from within and without, the credulous are whispering about omens of death and destruction. Just old peasant legends about the gods waking to walk the earth. No modern educated man believes that sort of thing. But they should. . .Winner of the David Gemmell Morningstar Award for Best Debut Fantasy.

Book Promise of Blood (The Powder Mage Trilogy Book 1) Review :



i downloaded the free sample of this book and i loved it. really sharp writing, memorable characters, a cool magic system, and a very detailed world setting. should have been a bullseye, but once i purchased the whole book and continued reading, the whole novel just seemed to fall apart and eventually i stopped caring about what happened next.i think the biggest problem is that the book builds up story elements and then completely skips over them. the first few chapters build up tension regarding riots that are sure to break out in the aftermath of a violent coup. several times the characters talk about what they'll do when the riots break out. i was really hyped up about the riots because i expected some kind of major action setpiece ... and then the author skipped over the riots completely with one sentence. like, there's a space break in a chapter, and the narrative starts out with "a week later, the riots were over and the characters were doing something else." the author just skipped over a very important element of the plot for apparently no reason at all. this happens several times in the first quarter of the book.there's a ton of dramatic introspection regarding taniel and his fiancé vlora, who was unfaithful to him. when vlora shows up in the novel, i expected to see a chapter from her point of view, or at least some kind of closure about their relationship, but i got nothing. vlora appears and is immediately shoved into the background, never to be mentioned again, and her infidelity is not discussed. it's just this weird hanging plot thread that didn't go anywhere. and then there's a huge civil war that doesn't happen. like, it's a major plot point, but we only get to see one brief glimpse of the action from the point of view of a side character before it's all over. about a third of the way into the book, the investigator adamat is sent to a distant fort to get information from a guy named borbador. when borbador hears what adamat thought was an inconsequential detail, he freaks out and cries, "you have to tell the general about this, it's extremely important!" so adamat returns to the general ... and doesn't tell him at all, he gives him some other random information that the reader never saw him acquire. this kind of thing happens over and over, almost every element of the plot is built up and nothing comes of it.i really wanted to enjoy this because the magic and fantasy elements was really cool, the magic system was pretty interesting, and the history of the setting seemed well-though out. the character of tamas was a solid protagonist at first. but the plot just failed at almost every point, until i got frustrated with reading about things that didn't matter, and stopped caring about the character taniel. i finally gave up reading about halfway through.
It is strange, because the narrative and dialog are great until some inexplicable stupidity occurs. It's not like these gaffs are due to the character's lack of intelligence. I'm ok with less intelligent characters making less than optimum choices and being unaware of the blazingly obvious. What I'm NOT ok with is supposedly intelligent characters making inexplicably poor decisions. You can't be the premier strategist in the world and still neglect to secure your headquarters during armed conflict. You can't plan exhaustively to round-up of noble families and then allow unknown children to leave the surrounded house. There are dozens of these pokes in your eye idiocies. Probably the most egregious is the head of the revolt wanders around with exactly 1 security man, even after several attempts on his life have been made. You can't categorically conclude that only a traitor explains how you were found, and at the same time send out hunters with magical abilities that can find people miles away. And on, and on, and on. Imagine finding your fiancee in bed with another man (or woman) and a couple of weeks later your ex wants to "talk it out". Imagine a father sending his son off to kill his best friend because he says so. What could possibly go wrong. and on and on. The analogy that comes to mind is beautifully cut gems being set into a necklace with big gobs of bubblegum. If you're not paying attention, you might miss it from a distance, but the more you examine it the uglier it gets. Not recommended.
