Reviews"Reminiscent of Final Fantasy, Masters of the Universe, and Moorcock's The Jewel in the Skull, ASHES OF THE SUN is a science-fantasy adventure brimming with everything that is weird and wonderful about a world where magic and technology have fused in the fires of a fallen civilization."-- Jonathan French, author of The Grey Bastards on Ashes of the Sun, " Ashes of the Sun is fantasy at its finest: deliciously inventive, brimming with ancient evils, fallen empires, mysterious technology, and devastating magic. Best of all, however, are its characters, each one crafted with deliberate care and developed in meaningful ways as their story unfolds."-- Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld on Ashes of the Sun, "Exciting. Immersive. Epic. A perfect page turner and a phenomenal start to a new series."-- Peter Clines, author of The Fold and Ex-Heroes on Ashes of the Sun, "All-afterburners Isekai adventure--twisty, pacey, and full of reverent irreverence for fantasy. I can't get enough."-- Max Gladstone, New York Times Bestselling Author, "Magic, mutants, and mayhem abound in Django Wexler's Ashes of the Sun , but there's also plenty of brain food to be had in this tale of a post-catastrophe world suffering under the yoke of unbending authoritarian rule. A fast-paced and highly entertaining ride through a compelling and original world"-- Anthony Ryan, NYT bestselling author of Blood Song on Ashes of the Sun, " Ashes of the Sun brings to life an ancient world of magic broken by war. It's a simmering post-apocalyptic fantasy that feels like the literary equivalent of a ticking time bomb. The book lights a fuse in its first few pages, slowly setting up stakes and a conflict big enough to break the bonds of love, loyalty, duty, and even family, all before the full burn of its last few chapters and the finale's thunderous explosion."-- Evan Winter, author of The Rage of Dragons on Ashes of the Sun, " Lord of the Rings crossed with Groundhog Day , narrated by a gender-flipped Deadpool."-- Mike Brooks, author of The Black Coast, "A standout.... There's no time like the present to lose oneself in the military and political struggles of the Vordanai Empire."-- Fonda Lee, author of Jade City, for LibraryJournal.com on The Shadow Campaigns series

SynopsisGroundhog Day meets Deadpool in Django Wexler's raunchy, hilarious, blood-splattered fantasy tale about a young woman who, tired of defending humanity from the Dark Lord, decides to become the Dark Lord herself. "Takes the old saying 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em,' to the next level. A sarcastic, action-packed, intrigue-filled (mis)adventure. One of the funniest books I've read in a long time."--Matt Dinniman, author of Dungeon Crawler Carl Davi has done this all before. She's tried to be the hero and take down the all-powerful Dark Lord. A hundred times she's rallied humanity and made the final charge. But the time loop always gets her in the end. Sometimes she's killed quickly. Sometimes it takes a while. But she's been defeated every time. This time? She's done being the hero and done being stuck in this endless time loop. If the Dark Lord always wins, then maybe that's who she needs to be. It's Davi's turn to play on the winning side. A humorous western isekai featuring the reincarnation of an antihero female lead.

Uniquely and Hilariuosly Entertaining
This book is uniquely and wittingly entertaining. It is like no other fantasy book I have read. The story itself is not for the fainthearted, but is hilarious in it's own way. Some content may offend some, but with the right sense of humor you will LOVE it for being so different! The telling of the story of what Davi went through to get to the end of the book is very well written and explained. I don't want to give away any vital points. It is a page turner and hard to put down. I read it in 2 days and am ready for the next book! I highly recommend this if you are looking for a new twist on story time! Django Wexler is quite the words smith!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
