The Grey Bastards: A Novel (The Lot Lands Book 1)

â€œ[A] fantasy masterwork . . . a dirty, blood-soaked gem of a novel [that reads] likeÂ Mad MaxÂ set in Tolkienâ€™s Middle-earth.â€â€”Kirkus ReviewsÂ (starred review)
Â
JackalÂ and his fellow half-orcs patrol the barren wastes of the Lot Lands, spilling their own damned blood to keep civilized folk safe. A rabble of hard-talking, hog-riding, whore-mongering brawlers they may be, but theÂ GreyÂ Bastards are Jackalâ€™s sworn brothers, fighting at his side in a land where thereâ€™s no room for softness.Â
Â
And once Jackalâ€™s in chargeâ€”as soon as he can unseat the Bastardsâ€™ tyrannical, seemingly unkillable founderâ€”thereâ€™s a few things theyâ€™ll do different. Better.Â
Â
Or at least, thatâ€™s the plan. Until the fallout from a deadly showdown makes Jackal start investigating the Lot Lands for himself. Soon, heâ€™s wondering if his feelings have blinded him to ugly truths about this world, and the Bastardsâ€™ place in it.Â
Â
In a quest for answers that takes him from decaying dungeons to the frontlines of an ancient feud, Jackal finds himself battling invading orcs, rampaging centaurs, and grubby human conspiracies alikeâ€”along with a host of dark magics so terrifying theyâ€™d give even the heartiest Bastard pause.Â
Â
Finally, Jackal must ride to confront a threat thatâ€™s lain in wait for generations, even as he wonders whether the Bastards canâ€”or should--survive.Â
Â
Delivered with a generous wink to Sons of Anarchy, featuring sneaky-smart worldbuilding and gobs of fearsomely foul-mouthed charm,Â The Grey BastardsÂ is a grimy, pulpy, masterpieceâ€”and a raunchy, swaggering, cunningly clever adventure thatâ€™s like nothing youâ€™ve read before.
