Synopsis

John Carver has three rules: Don't drink in the daytime, don't gamble when the luck has gone, and don't talk to the dead people who come to visit.

It has been almost five years since the incident in Kabul. Since the magic stirred within him and the stories began. Fleeing the army, running from the whispers, the guilt, and the fear he was losing his mind, Carver fell into addiction, dragging himself through life one day at a time.

Desperation has pulled him back to Afghanistan, back to the heat, the dust, and the truth he worked so hard to avoid. But there are others, obsessed with power and forbidden magics, who will stop at nothing to learn the truth of his gifts. Abducted and chained, Carver must break more than his own rules if he is to harness this power and survive.

Actual rating: 4.5/5 but I'll round it up. It’s a strange day when the guy who talks to dead people begins to think he’s the normal one. The Lore of Prometheus protagonist, John Carver, is a broken ex-military with severe PTSD symptoms. During his last field mission in Kabul, terrorists killed hi......more

I’ve read this author’s work in the past and really, really enjoyed them – I was a huge fan of Faithless. That said, I was avoiding this one because it sounded like it was too far out of my wheelhouse. And after starting it I soon realized I was likely not the ideal target audience… but it didn’t ma......more

Goodreads review by Liis on January 20, 2019

Well, now… this was such a pleasant surprise of a book! And I say that admitting the full irony as the content is anything than pleasant for our characters, but you know… welcome to fantasy-land! I am no stranger to Graham Austin-King’s work having previously read&reviewed the Faithless. I knew I wa......more
