DEVIL TOWN continues the saga of nine adventurers who entered the Sable City in book #1. Tilda, now a successful merchant, longs for adventure, while Claudja becomes close to the Codian emperor. Nesha-tari embarks on conquest while the former John Deskata, now John the Red, throws in his lot with a band of upstart dragons. As in previous books of the series, DEVIL TOWN features thrilling fight sequences, humor, and likable protagonists who are easy to root for, as well as a villain (well-dressed devil Balan) who is fun to hate. The author's world-building is astonishing and his command of military details is superior to anything I've read in a fantasy series. I'm already reading book #5 and suspect I'll soon be impatient for book #6.
