Publisher's summary

Newly and uneasily allied, two tribes from different worlds set off across the Ocean of Grass. Their mission is to fulfil a prophecy and take Ottar the Moaner west of west, to save mankind. In their way are the denizens of the Badlands, the most terrifying and powerful collection of murderers and monsters the world has ever seen.

Clever story

Good story with some tongue in cheek humor. Characters get in one trouble after another but always get out, although they do lose and adventurer or two along the way. Waiting on book 3.

AMAZING SERIES

I did not think Watson could top Age of Iron...Boy was I wrong! The story, the characters, and the narrator, all combine to make ONE HECK of a read. I wish the third book was out, now!

Such a strange delightful exciting unusual story

If you read book one & thought, "wow, that was different, in a good way" hang on cause you ain't seen (heard) nothin yet.
Book 2 goes way past quirky to firmly shake hands with bizaar while quickly carrying me to the point of "don't end, don't end, please don't end yet!"
Funny, bizaar, unusual, & throughly delightful! Filled with characters you'll love, villains you'll love to hate & a narrator who seemlessly intertwines them all together in a raucous romp of an adventure. (or as Sitsee says, "we're on a quest Finn, you get that right?")
Can't wait for book 3!
Common Angus git er done! WooTa!

Great writer. Excellent mix of humor and action.

Like his other books, the inner monologues and dry humor will keep you laughing. You become interested in every character just so you can get a glimpse into their hilarious inner thoughts and motives. The story keeps moving and never gets caught up in some painfully obvious plot. I loved it.

Dark, Witty, Original. No one is safe.

Angus Watson continues to hone his particular writing style in his second entry in the West of West series and with each book he climbs higher up my list of favorite authors.

Good Narrative, bad story. Don't waste your time

Lack of character development, poor writing, absurd elements, it's like the author just wrote whatever came to mind with 0 planning. Don't waste your time.
