Description
The Godswar has come to Guerdon, dividing the city between three occupying powers. While the fragile Armistice holds back the gods, other forces seek to extend their influence. The criminal dragons of the Ghierdana ally with the surviving thieves - including Spar Idgeson, once heir to the Brotherhood of Thieves, now transformed into the living stone of the New City. Meanwhile, far across the sea, Spar's friend Carillon Thay travels towards the legendary land of Khebesh, but she, too, becomes show more enmeshed in the schemes of the Ghierdana - and in her own past. Can she find what she wants when even the gods seek vengeance against her? show lessTags

The world introduced to us in 'The Gutter Prayer' and 'The Shadow Saint' becomes larger in the latest instalment in this great series. The characters see more than the main city Guerdon whether they like it or not. We are introduced to the Ghierdana who are 'a family' that have closer similarities to the Corleones than the Lannisters. I loved/loathed this group in equal measure and Great Uncle is a proper bastard
There's more of a shift back to the main characters from 'The Gutter Prayer', though they have to contend with the consequences of what happened in the 'The Shadow Saint'. In summary 'The Broken God' offers more of the same as the previous books (in the best possible way), while also offering glimpses into the more terrifying show more aspects of this universe.
These are the kind of fantasy novels you can live inside of, while you're reading them. I'll be reading something completely different next, to wash out the Fate Spiders, Gutter Miracles, and murdering Saints of this wonderful world. show less
