'Abercrombie is in a class of his own' JOE HILL

Europe stares into the abyss.
Plague and famine stalk the land, monsters lurk in every shadow and greedy princes care for nothing but their own ambitions. Only one thing is certain: the elves will come again, and they will eat everyone.
Sometimes, only the darkest paths lead towards the light. Paths on which the righteous will not dare to tread . . .
And so, buried beneath the sacred splendour of the Celestial Palace, is the secret Chapel of the Holy Expediency. For its congregation of convicted monsters there are no sins that have not been committed, no lines that will not be crossed, and no mission that cannot be turned into a disastrous bloodbath.
Now the hapless Brother Diaz must somehow bind the worst of the worst to a higher cause: to put a thief on the throne of Troy, and unite the sundered church against the coming apocalypse.
When you're headed through hell, you need the devils on your side.
Customer Reviews
Great book
Brilliant characters fully developed through a great story. I’ll be looking for other books by this author.
Confusing
The book drags and I gave up.
Go Joe !
Yet again Joe has delivered. We are in a new universe and it it so eloquently delivered. I love the books and as a person who works alone and out of doors for a lot of the time I cannot recommend the audio book enough. Yet again the peerless Steven Pacey voices team up with Joe’s vision to create a masterpiece. Once heard, his voice will be in your head as you read, hopefully, the regular book. Heartfelt thanks to you both for the pleasure you have delivered to an old git! Cheers - Richard BW
