RJ Barker
From beloved author RJ Barker, this sequel to Mortedant’s Peril is a genre-blending fantasy murder mystery that breathes fresh life into the business of death and reluctant detectives–perfect for fans of The Tainted Cup and Witness for the Dead.
Some mysteries are better left buried.
But that’s never stopped Irody before.
Irody Hasp is a master Mortedant, who can read the last memories of the dead–and the tiered city of Elbay is indeed rife with murder and mayhem. But can he get paid in coin? No. He’s forced to accept pigs, cabbages and pies, and be grateful for them. Ostracized by his priory and serving the poor, he survives on the fringes with his rebellious apprentice and an intimidating Urcan warrior.
But when a wealthy aristocrat demands that Irody investigate an “impossible” murder–where the victim has been torn apart in a locked room–Irody is thrust into a web of high-society lies and industrial espionage. From the opulent heights of the sixth tier, to the toxic depths where rival weapon manufactories dwell, every clue points to a conspiracy that could spark a bloody gang war.
As ancient family secrets resurface and faceless enemies shadow his every move, Irody must solve the enigma before the city’s delicate balance shatters. In Elbay, the truth doesn't just set you free–it can get you killed.
批評家のレビュー
Praise for Mortedant's Peril:
"Mortedant’s Peril is a fabulous fantasy mystery set in a fresh, imaginative world and featuring a trio of underdog characters with nothing in common except an unfolding sense of justice that propels them into one engrossing caper after another. Long live Irody, Mirial and Whisper!" —Sebastien De Castell
"Mortedant’s Peril is like a fantastic dream I didn’t want to wake up from! Characters I adore follow a twisty mystery that winds through a weird and wonderful city, in a story full of action and humor and stakes that cut straight to your heart. More, please!!!"—Melissa Caruso
"RJ Barker does it again! Mortedant's Peril is the perfect blend of humour, darkness, and puzzle box mystery."—Sunyi Dean
"[A] perfect mix of the wit of Pratchett, the city building of Scott Lynch and the unexpected emotional gut punches of Robin Hobb. Barker takes that most common of fantasy tropes, a magic city with a conspiracy at it heart and, fittingly for a tale of a man who reads the dead, breathes new life into it. A deeply wonderful fantasy that made me fall in love with the genre all over again." —Grimdark Magazine
"With plots and mysteries, unexpected friends and foes alike, strap in for a baroque romp of squalor and grandeur, horror and humour. Fabulous, frantic and moving."—Daily Mail
"For Hasp, and for Barker, easy is not the same as right, and there is nothing atavistic about insisting that humanity cannot be optimized into obsolescence. Elbay’s survival depends on Hasp and his allies’ intransigent belief that, in fact, people matter. Perhaps, Barker implies, ours does as well."—Bookpage (starred review)
"A fascinating world that readers of fantasy will thoroughly enjoy, and mystery and thriller readers will be drawn to the tension of the time crunch in solving the crime. A seamless mixture of genres."—Booklist
"[A] propulsive, (mis)adventurous fantasy mystery."—Shelf Awareness
