“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

Opinie krytyków

"The Devils is just an incredibly fun, incredibly action-packed and, by the end, incredibly affecting book. It slammed the living shit out of me."—Tamsyn Muir, New York Times bestselling author of Gideon the Ninth

“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

“Mixing the central conceit of Suicide Squad with Hammer horror vibes, as viewed via the lens of alternate history, The Devils is a gore splattered roller coaster ride from start to finish. Probably the most fun you can have reading a fantasy novel.”—Anthony Ryan, New York Times bestselling author of Blood Song

"Joe Abercrombie is, to me, the undisputed master of creating deep, distinct characters that leap off the page, and never more so than in The Devils. This book is hilarious, profound, tragic, and so thrillingly paced one scarcely has time to breathe between one calamitous adventure and the next. I loved every page, and can’t wait to see where the story goes from here. Straight to hell, I hopefully suspect!"—Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld

"Bloody, eloquent, and so f***ing charming!"—Hildur Knútsdóttir, author of The Night Guest

“Deliciously wicked, surprisingly moving. The Dirty Dozen, but fantasy, and with literal monsters. An irresistible vampire, an undying knight, a not-to-be-f***ed with librarian, and the lustiest, most killy, most entertaining werewolf in fantasy or horror conspire to elevate a turdish thief to the throne of empire in this razor-sharp, genre-bending romp. Abercrombie’s best to date. Beware!”—Christopher Buehlman, USA Today bestselling author of The Blacktongue Thief

“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

“Oh my days, it is magnificent! Part hilarious, part terrifying, part heartbreaking.”—Peter McLean, author of the War for the Rose Throne series

Abercrombie and Pacey deliver again. interesting story, great characters, superb narrator. all you can want from an audio book

another great piece

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

Steven Pacey nails it again! His interpretation of the characters makes it very enjoyable. The story on the other hand was sometimes sluggish and drawn out. Editing would have helped. On the other hand, I am a fan of the author's humor and in combination of narrator's delivery, great stuff overall.

Great narrator - sometimes meandering story

I feel like abercrombie was aiming a bit to strongly at a movie adaptation with this one. A bit too fast and not as deep as the first law trilogy, but still very fun and good entertainment. The performance is second to none.

A different kind of suicide squad

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
