Resumen del Editor

Rejoin fantasy’s most deadly and dysfunctional mercenaries in the sequel to debut sensation The Black Hawks.

Bound by oath and honour, Vedren Chel found himself drawn to the heart of a deadly rebellion. With him stood the mercenaries of the Black Hawk Company, who were only ever in it for the money.

But the uprising failed. Now, Chel and the sell-sword Rennic languish in prison, watching as their comrades are taken one by one for execution.

A daring escape will set them free, but with the combined forces of vengeful church and voracious crown arrayed against them, Chel and the Black Hawks must embark on a desperate search for new allies.

Journeying from frozen wastes to towering cities, from drug-riddled fleapits to opulent palaces, The Righteous is the thrilling and riotous second adventure from one of fantasy’s most exciting new voices.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Reminds me of Abercrombie’s The Blade Itself." (Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld)

"Wragg captures the classic fantasy spirit of adventure and exploration, wraps it with stabbed backs and cannibals and gifts it to you on a bed of action." (Ed McDonald, author of Blackwing)

Epic

Fantastic adventures and wonderful characters. Looking forward to another. Won’t be disappointed if like Street Rats Michael J Sullivan

If you like joe Abercrombie

You will feel right at home here with this band of smart mouthed mercs. Also Colin’s reading of the book is absolutely outstanding. I loved this tale and I’m looking forward to more david Wragg in the future

Little funky at the end, but great book.

The ending got a bit fanciful, but still a good, entertaining book. Narrator was amazing.

Great follow up

highly entertaining! fantastic follow up. would definitely recommend if you liked the first book can't wait to see where it goes from here?!?

Worth a listen.

I think Colin Mace is a fantastic narrator. The story here is good. The narration ultimately (for me) makes it a fun listen. Both books are worth a shot.

Loved this book so much

If your a fan of Abercrombie and Sanderson you’ll more than likely enjoy this Duo-logy. That’s right tho, not a trilogy unfortunately. But yeah it’s damn good I promise just listen to it.

Worth finishing

I wished there had been more to this one as there is so much more that could have happened, then again, there still is plenty that can happen and I. glad this particular arc wrapped up as certain indi ideals were annoying and fairly useless by most standards. The characters kept me on my toes and never quite did as I expected. It didn't quite live up to the expectation the first book left, but considering the direction it ends up in...that's inevitable. I think the author wanted to go in another direction so he had to tie up the loose ends in this one. Looking forward to future works.

Fun book

It was a good listen for a commute or a long run. I do not understand the ending though, there seemed to be a lot of loose ends. Maybe that was the point? I wouldn't say it has a happy ending necessarily, or even an ending at all. But like I said, maybe that was intentional, or maybe the author just had to wrap everything up really fast?

TLDR: Worth a listen, don't expect a happy ending with everyone smiling.

A strong follow-up to book 1

It takes the intimate adventure of the first book and expands it into a sweeping epic without leaving the characters behind, with stakes that will hit you with thunder and leave you think of what will come.

Great Series

This is a great series for anyone who enjoys dramatic, yet comedic, witty adventures. The reader, who I wasn't fond of at first, is amazing. He has brought life to all these characters in a way that is so enjoyable to listen to. I highly recommend this series.
