Über diesen Titel

“Steven Pacey’s performance brings the story to life. Listeners will be on the edge of their seats.”—Booklist (starred review)

“Full of easy banter, dry humor delivered with excellent comedic timing, and tender moments of sapphic romance, this audiobook's memorable characters are expertly realized in Pacey's narration.”—AudioFile (Earphones Award Winner)

A brand-new epic fantasy from New York Times bestselling author Joe Abercrombie, featuring a notorious band of anti-heroes on a delightfully bloody and raucous journey

Holy work sometimes requires unholy deeds.

Brother Diaz has been summoned to the Sacred City, where he is certain a commendation and grand holy assignment awaits him. But his new flock is made up of unrepentant murderers, practitioners of ghastly magic, and outright monsters. The mission he is tasked with will require bloody measures from them all in order to achieve its righteous ends.

Elves lurk at our borders and hunger for our flesh, while greedy princes care for nothing but their own ambitions and comfort. With a hellish journey before him, it's a good thing Brother Diaz has the devils on his side.

“Full of easy banter, dry humor delivered with excellent comedic timing, and tender moments of sapphic romance, this audiobook’s memorable characters are expertly realized in Pacey’s narration.”—Locus Mag

Kritikerstimmen

The Devils is Joe Abercrombie at his best: exciting, witty, vicious. History buffs (like me!) will love the fantasy-historical setting overflowing with brilliant little details.”—Django Wexler, author of How to Become a Dark Lord and Die Trying

“Devilish fun, an unholy delight. Wielding his trademarked grit and stiletto-sharp prose, Abercrombie is at his bloody best weaving a tale of monstrous heroes who discover the humanity in themselves.”—Pierce Brown, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising

The Devils by Joe Abercrombie, the first in a new series, is ferociously imagined, and rumbles along with the unstoppable force of a city-burying avalanche. It's also frequently shout-out-loud-with-laughter funny. When it comes to big, shamelessly entertaining fantasy, Abercrombie is in a class of his own.”—Joe Hill, author of Heart-Shaped Box

Abercrombie leans heavily on the humor in this book, and I’m here for it! I really enjoyed myself, the writing is excellent, the characters amazing. Only the plot was somewhat disappointing and I hope the next books in the series will improve in that regard.

Funnier than ever

The match of Steven Pacey as a reader and Hoe Abercrombie as an author is a pair that makes for an experience close to heavenly bliss.

Two Devils for a heavenly combo

Every now and then you come across a book that you find so captivating that, the further of the story progresses, you know you'll be sorry when the book is finished. You can't imagine there is anything that can come after it, that is even half as good. "The Devils" by Joe Abercrombie is such a book. Funny (but never silly), thrilling, with unexpected twists and well-written characters.

Highly recommended!

Great, fascinating, captivating

Sadly, this book was a huge disappointment. Most of the time, I oscillated between feeling bored and cringing at the author’s attempt to insert a joke into every other paragraph. (The worst part was that many of these “jokes” were repeated dozens of times, completely draining any trace of humor from them 😬) The plot, end goal, and characters weren’t compelling enough for me to care. The only thing I liked about this book was the worldbuilding - though even that was only sparsely sprinkled throughout.

Disappointing
