Stephen’s god died on the longest day of the year…
Three years later, Stephen is a broken paladin, living only for the chance to be useful before he dies. But all that changes when he encounters a fugitive named Grace in an alley and witnesses an assassination attempt gone wrong. Now the pair must navigate a web of treachery, beset on all sides by spies and poisoners, while a cryptic killer stalks one step behind…
Another winner from T. Kingfisher. I have loved all of her books except for one (The Twisted Ones). I enjoy her brand of action, adventure fantasy/horror with great characters. I did not realize that this book is actually part of a larger universe. It can be read first, but I will have to put Swordheart on my TBR list for a later date. For this book, we meet two real characters, Stephen and Grace, that find themselves in a much larger mystery than their everyday lives. As the mystery unfolds, we are right there with our characters puzzling out the clues and hoping that they find freedom and maybe even love. This volume sets up a great larger storyline featuring the former Saints of Steel.
