Rendition During Books False Covenant (Widdershins Adventures #2)
It’s been over half a year, now, since the brutal murder of Archbishop William de Laurent during his pilgrimage to the Galicien city of Davillon. During that time, the Church of the Hallowed Pact has assigned a new bishop to the city—but it has also made its displeasure at the death of its clergyman quite clear. Davillon’s economy has suffered beneath the weight of the Church’s displeasure. Much of the populace—angry at the clergy— has turned away from the Church hierarchy, choosing private worship or small, independent shrines. And the bishop, concerned for his new position and angry at the people of Davillon, plans to do something about it.But a supernatural threat is stalking the nighttime streets—a creature of the other world has come to infiltrate the seedier streets of Davillon, to intertwine its tendrils through the lower echelons of society. Faced with both political upheaval and a supernatural threat to its citizenry, the local representatives of the Church are paralyzed and the Guardsmen are in over their heads.
And then there’s Widdershins--who’s tried, and failed, to stay out of trouble since taking over Genevieve’s tavern; who’s known to the Church and the Guard both, and trusted by neither; who may, with some of her Thieves’ Guild contacts, have unwittingly played a part in the bishop’s plans; and who, along with her personal god Olgun, may be the only real threat to the supernatural evil infesting Davillon.

This series is great. Love the twists and turns,the plot, the world-building and the character development. This author is also not afraid to shake things up and 'make sacrifices' where necessary. Its unexpected but works. Love the writing style and the fast-paced irreverent humour found in the voicesof the characters. Looking forward to Book 3.*** 4.40 ***This was another very fun and fast read, and I ended up reading all night, trying to not be freaked by the storm which was destroying the trees and roofs around... But the action kept my mind occupied and before I knew it, storm was gone and the sun was creeping up the horizon. ... And the more than 250 pages were done! This was soooo much creepy fun!!! It still is a YA Fantasy with a kick ass girl protagonists, but this go around the reminiscing is gone and the absence of time jumps
This and my other reviews can be found at http://amethystbookwyrm.blogspot.co.uk/Widdershins is trying to be law abiding tavern owner after the events of Thiefs Covenant. However, a sinister creature is terrorising the city of Davillon and the fate of the city rest on her and her friends. Widdershins just cannot catch a break as everyone is distrustful towards her and Olgun; however I did like how we got to know more about her friends in this one and their feelings towards her. This is a really
Our favorite thief and god are back in "False Covenant" - another adventure where the supernatural haunts the streets of Davillon, there's romance in the air, and more shenanigans with the Finders' Guild and the crew at the Witch. With this installment of the series, Marmell takes us to soaring highs and plunging lows and takes the George R R Martin school of fantasy very seriously and reminds us that no character is safe. I loved this volume in the series, and I can't wait for the next one!
2.5 stars.WHY. WHY THE HECK DID YOU DO THAT?????
Wonderful! I love the writing style :) And the story was awesome!!!Iruoch and his rhymes...Iruoch was such a wonderful monster, a wonderful bad guy. Not that he had morals at all. He was just constructed so well. From his floppy hat that never moved to his dance-like/pirouetting style of walking. And how it looked like he should have gone every direction (there's only One Direction!) but ended up coming right to you. His dual voices and his guant scarecrow form were so well described. The
Originally posted at http://thebookplank.blogspot.com/2014...A few weeks ago I read the first book in the Widdershins Adventure series by Ari Marmell, Thief's Covenant, and was pleasantly surprised with the story that he managed to put down. I read only one of Ari Marmell's earlier works, In Thunder Forged, set in the Iron Kingdoms franchise, but I was hooked onto his writing style from the go. In Thief's Covenant, Ari Marmell completely builds his own universe and does so superbly, there was
