Book Overview

From the co-author of the viral New York Times bestseller This is How You Lose the Time War.

"Stunningly good. Stupefyingly good." --Patrick Rothfuss

Max Gladstone's Craft Sequence chronicles the epic struggle to build a just society in a modern fantasy world.

A god has died, and it's up to Tara, first-year associate in the international necromantic firm of Kelethres, Albrecht, and Ao, to bring Him back to life before His city falls apart.

Her client is Kos, recently deceased fire god of the city of Alt Coulumb. Without Him, the metropolis's steam generators will shut down, its trains will cease running, and its four million citizens will riot.

Tara's job: resurrect Kos before chaos sets in. Her only help: Abelard, a chain-smoking priest of the dead god, who's having an understandable crisis of faith.

When Tara and Abelard discover that Kos was murdered, they have to make a case in Alt Coulumb's courts?and their quest for the truth endangers their partnership, their lives, and Alt Coulumb's slim hope of survival.

Set in a phenomenally built world in which lawyers ride lightning bolts, souls are currency, and cities are powered by the remains of fallen gods, Max Gladstone's Craft Sequence introduces readers to a modern fantasy landscape and an epic struggle to build a just society.

So good you'll need to schedule recovery time!

Published by Chuckee , 4 years ago
The Craft Sequence (of which this is both the first and the third) is absolutely stunning, and I mean that in a leaves-you-mildly-concussed sort of way. No seriously, some of them gave me literary hangovers! But honestly, they're a genuinely unique bunch, in no way light reading but sooo worth the heavy. I read the Craft Sequence in publication order, rather than chronological order. While each book in the series is intended as a stand-alone (there is only one book which I do not feel like quite entirely succeeded) and so has it's own characters and conclusions, there are tidbits in each one for which you will need all of the books to fully comprehend. Gladstone gives you precisely what you need for each particular story, but when you add up all the little tidbits, it is almost like you get A BONUS STORY!! The point that I am trying to make here is: read the Craft Sequence. In any order. It isn't picky. Except for the unNumbered one... I think that one might be picky.
