“[A] illusion masterwork . a filthy, blood-soaked gem of a book [that reads] like Mad Potential set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth.”-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Jackal and his fellow half-orcs patrol the barren wastes from the Great deal Lands, spilling their very own damned bloodstream to preserve civilized folk safe and sound. A rabble of hard-talking, hog-riding, whore-mongering brawlers they may be, but the Gray Bastards are Jackal’s sworn brothers, fighting at his side in a property where there’ about The Grey Bastards: A Book s no space for softness.

And once Jackal’s in charge-as quickly as he can unseat the Bastards’ tyrannical, seemingly unkillable founder-there’s a few things they’ll do different. Better.

Or at least, that’s the program. Before fallout from a dangerous showdown makes Jackal begin investigating the Lot Lands for himself. Soon, he’s thinking if his feelings possess blinded him to unappealing truths concerning this world, and the Bastards’ place in it.

In a search for answers that takes him from decaying dungeons to the frontlines of an ancient feud, Jackal finds himself battling invading orcs, rampaging centaurs, and grubby human conspiracies alike-along with a bunch of dark magics so terrifying they’d give also the heartiest Bastard pause.

Finally, Jackal must ride to confront a threat that’s lain in wait for generations, even as he wonders if the Bastards can-or should–survive.

Delivered using a generous wink to Sons of Anarchy, offering sneaky-smart worldbuilding and gobs of fearsomely foul-mouthed appeal, The Grey Bastards is a grimy, pulpy, masterpiece-and a raunchy, swaggering, cunningly smart adventure that’s like nothing you’ve examine before.
