Other than the constant cursing and killing (which is more or less expected in a story like this) there are really only a handful of "disturbing" scenes, which admittedly, would probably cause squeamish readers to put the book down completely. The novel has a reputation for being darker than dark, reaching the very depths of written depravity but honestly, I wouldn't take it that far. Examples include pyromaniac wizards, narcissistic masterminds that are as powerful as they believe they are, kleptomaniac assassins and multi personality mirrorists. It has a magic system that is entirely based on mental illnesses.and this aspect of the novel is very original and refreshing. ![]() It takes place in a dark, unmerciful and utterly insane world. The story is about three scoundrels who attempt an audacious kidnapping. I just finished reading Beyond Redemption by Michael Fletcher. ![]()
