Summary

Ten year old Ferius Parfax has a simple plan: kill every last inhabitant of the spell-gifted nation that destroyed her people, starting with the man who murdered her parents。 Killing mages is a difficult business, of course, so Ferius undertakes to study the ways of the Argosi: the loosely-knit tribe of tricksters known for getting the better of even the most powerful of spellcasters。 But the Argosi have a price for their teachings, and by the time Ferius learns what it is, it may be too late。

Perfect for fans of The Dark Tower, Firefly, Guardians of the Galaxy, Terry Pratchett, Ben Aaronovitch and Jim Butcher。

5/5*You might be wondering how I was able to read this book already。 I pre-ordered it at a german bookstore and they sent it to me prematurely。 Great luck for me, because I could already read it。 Good luck for you, if you're still not sure about pre-ordering it。You can safely pre-order this book if you enjoyed any other book by Sebastien de Castell or if you enjoy good books in general。As always, he delivered a compelling read, that, in my opinion, might be my new favorite of his。 Well, ok, I'm 5/5*You might be wondering how I was able to read this book already。 I pre-ordered it at a german bookstore and they sent it to me prematurely。 Great luck for me, because I could already read it。 Good luck for you, if you're still not sure about pre-ordering it。You can safely pre-order this book if you enjoyed any other book by Sebastien de Castell or if you enjoy good books in general。As always, he delivered a compelling read, that, in my opinion, might be my new favorite of his。 Well, ok, I'm lying, I will never love any of his books more than Saint's Blood。 This one comes very close though。Also, I was very happy that a certain。。。 person turned out to be who I thought they would be。 。。。more

I firstly want to thank Hot Key Books for sending me this physical ARC。 I am not familiar with Sebastien de Castell's work or the Spellslinger series, but that did not hinder my experience whilst reading 'Way of the Argosi'。 This is an origin story for the character Ferius Parfax and it is written in a way that allows the reader to fully understand her personality and the reasons for her actions。 It is almost as if she is telling you her story as if she were in front of you - there are times her I firstly want to thank Hot Key Books for sending me this physical ARC。 I am not familiar with Sebastien de Castell's work or the Spellslinger series, but that did not hinder my experience whilst reading 'Way of the Argosi'。 This is an origin story for the character Ferius Parfax and it is written in a way that allows the reader to fully understand her personality and the reasons for her actions。 It is almost as if she is telling you her story as if she were in front of you - there are times her narrations waffles and goes off on a tangent which is not completely relevant to the storyline/plot but she soon realises and then puts herself back on track。 It is quite a different story from the other Young Adult Fantasy books I have read lately and I think that is purely down to the narration, it felt like I was there in the novel instead of sat on the sidelines watching the plot unravel。 The worldbuilding is easy to follow and imagine。 There are some characters that I found myself wanting to see more of, but I think they will be 'big' characters in the actual series that is already published。 I have found myself being interested in how her character is portrayed in the Spellslinger series, so I may have to look at those in detail。 。。。more
