Relation In Pursuance Of Books A Discourse in Steel (Egil and Nix #2)

Egil and Nix have retired, as they always said they would. No, really – they have! No more sword and hammer-play for them! 

But when two recent acquaintances come calling for help, our hapless heroes find themselves up against the might of the entire Thieves Guild.

And when kidnapping the leader of the most powerful guild in the land seems like the best course of action, you know you’re in over your head…

A hugely-enjoyable stand-alone adventure in classic sword and sorcery mode, from the New York Times bestselling author of "Star Wars: Deceived" and "The Hammer and the Blade".

Critique Appertaining To Books A Discourse in Steel (Egil and Nix #2)

Another solid Nix and Egil book. I think I liked the story of this one better than the first, but the relationship between these two rogues is really what makes me enjoy these books. Some great banter, loyalty, and ass kicking is on display here and I loved pretty much every minute of it.

Filled with fun action, great banter, and a loving homage too Fritz Leiber, the newest tale of Egil and Nix is a delightful ride.

Dark and damaged heroes have never been so much fun. Author Paul S. Kemp appears to be an author at the heights of his powers in his second novel following the adventures of Egil and Nix. A follow up to 2012's The Hammer and the Blade, A Discourse in Steel is a very different story with different villains and different themes but the same fun. Egil and Nix aren't looking for a fight, but they are still more than able to bring the violence when it is called for. As a reader you may question their

Thieves! Witches! Death magic! Things-That-Are-Worse-Than-Death Magic! Talking Keys! Zombies! Pomegranates! Aaaaaaah!In an unexpected reversal of fate, I find a sequel that betters the original book substantially... and still manages to garner itself the same overall rating. First of all - all the things I liked, fundamentally, about the first book are here, and they're bigger and better. Nix and Egil are still engaging, daring and more than slightly ridiculous, but their banter and history feel

Another rollicking swords-and-sorcery bromance story filled with thrills, chills, and bad guys with GILLS! (You'll see.)I am falling in love. Not with Nix or Egil so much as the friendship between them. Here, they take on the entire fucking Thieves' Guild, the magical soul-sucking entity known as Blackalley, and some crazy-ass monsters that show up later. (I won't spoil that stuff.)These stories do to straight-up S&S stories what GRRMartin and Joe Abercrombie do to "high fantasy." Namely,

It isn't very often in my experience that as a reader you can pick up a book out of a series and not have the usual starting disconnect. That inevitable period where you often find yourself getting into the flow of things, catching up on missed time etc. Most of the time there is a subtle feeling that prevails to make everything feel different. You might over the course of a few chapters acclimate to the new series of events but generally speaking at the beginning that feeling is typically

A Discourse in Steel is the second novel in Paul S. Kemps EGIL AND NIX series about a couple of retired graverobbers who just cant seem to stay out of trouble. I thought the first book, The Hammer and the Blade, was a fun story that didnt quite meet the standards of Fritz Leibers LANKHMAR series which is an obvious influence. I was happy to give Egil and Nix another chance to charm me, though.This time the guys investigate Black Alley, a dark extra-dimensional space that shows up somewhere
