'Crackles with excitement and adventure on every page' Fantasy Book Review

Enter a war-torn world where gunpowder and magic collide

The nation of Fatrasta is a haven for criminals, rebels, adventurers and sorcerers seeking relics of the past. As insurrection grows, only the iron will of the Lady Chancellor holds the capital city of Landfall together.

Yet an ancient power as old as time is rising, and the fate of this young nation now rests in the hands of a spy, a disgraced war hero and a mercenary general with a past as turbulent as Landfall's present.

Sins of Empire is the explosive new epic fantasy from Gemmell Award-winning author Brian McClellan. Look out for Wrath of Empire, book two in the Gods of Blood and Powder series, in May 2018.

Reviews

[Beth C.]

Excellent book. In terms of Epic Fantasy, you've got gods and wars and internal politics...and some really great characters. I listened to it on audio, and wasn't really aware of just how LONG the book is. At one point, when it felt like things were beginning their wrap-up process, I still had 7 hours to go. But the narrator is FABULOUS, and the really enjoyed the story. Will definitely be going for book #2!
