#SinsofEmpire (#GodsofBloodandPowder, Book 1) #WrathofEmpire (Gods of Blood and Powder, Book 2) #BloodofEmpire (Gods of Blood and Powder, Book 3) By: #BrianMcClellan My Rating: FIVE out of FIVE stars Best for: Adults only for language and violence I feel like I’ve got grit in places it doesn’t belong…again. I loved Brian McClellan’s Powder Mage trilogy, so Gods of Blood and Powder had a lot to live up to. Expectations: met. The series is a very much desired return the gritty world of the original trilogy. (Gritty is literal–powder mages swallow or snort gun powder to access their magic. It never stops being cringy!) It’s epic in scope and world-building and features multiple Sanderson-like magic systems that multiply the fun. This story is told from three POVs, but it’s done very well and is never confusing or bogged down with detail as often happens when a book gets too ambitious. God’s of Blood and Powder takes place 10 years after the events of the Powder Mage trilogy. While there are common characters and references to past events, it’s okay if you don’t start there. Gods of Blood and Powder is written to stand alone. While the action is intense and the plot is complex, this story is driven by it’s characters. They are well written and multi-layered, and you’re going to love how they grow. You might consider reading the novella, “The Mad Lancers,” before starting the Gods of Blood and Powder trilogy. While not required, it gives the back story of one of the book’s best characters and adds depth you would miss otherwise. There’s no sexual content in the trilogy, but plenty of excessive, gory violence. You’ll find a four-letter “s-h” word every 10 pages or so across the three books. I was disappointed to find the violence and language significantly increased from what I remember in the Powder Mage trilogy. Adults only thanks to the language and violence. Bummer.

#WrathofEmpire (#GodsofBloodandPowder, Book 2) By: #BrianMcClellan My Rating: FIVE out of FIVE stars Best for: Adults only Book 1 was awesome. But what’s bigger than awesome? Awesome-er? More awesome? What ever it is, that’s book 2. It’s awesome-er. I feel like I’ve got grit in places it doesn’t belong… I loved Brian McClellan’s Powder Mage trilogy, and I’ve been anxiously waiting for the follow up trilogy, Gods of Blood and Powder, to be finished. The last book was published last month, and I just finished book 2, Wrath of Empire So far the series is a very much desired return the gritty world of the original trilogy. (Gritty is literal–powder mages swallow or snort gun powder to access their magic. It never stops being cringy!) It’s epic in scope and world-building and features multiple Sanderson-like magic systems that multiply the fun. This story is told from three POVs, but it’s done very well and was never confusing or bogged down with detail as can happen when a book gets too ambitious. God’s of Blood and Powder takes place 10 years after the events of the Powder Mage trilogy. While there are common characters and references to past events, it’s okay if you don’t start there. Looks like Gods of Blood and Powder is written to stand alone. The Riflejacks are a mercenary army with morals, and they’ve left their home continent to find work in the frontier-like land across the sea. There, they find more work then they counted on when a once isolated and always mysterious foreign power shows up with an enormous invasion force and ambitions beyond conquering the fledgling government. There’s ancient magic hidden in the land, and the Riflejacks and their allies have to keep it away from those who would abuse it—no matter which side of the conflict they claim.
