The Malevolent Seven
The Malevolent Seven | Sebastien de Castell
7 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
'Seven powerful mages want to make the world a better place. We're going to kill them first.' Picture a wizard. Go ahead, close your eyes. There he is, see? Skinny old guy with a long straggly beard. No doubt he's wearing iridescent silk robes that couldn't protect his frail body from a light breeze. The hat's a must, too, right? Big, floppy thing, covered in esoteric symbols that would instantly show every other mage where this one gets his magic? Wouldn't want a simple steel helmet or something that might, you know, protect the part of him most needed for conjuring magical forces from being bashed in with a mace (or pretty much any household object). Now open your eyes and let me show you what a real war mage looks like . . . but be warned: you're probably not going to like it, because we're violent, angry, dangerously broken people who sell our skills to the highest bidder and be damned to any moral or ethical considerations. At least, until such irritating concepts as friendship and the end of the world get in the way. My name is Cade Ombra, and though I currently make my living as a mercenary wonderist, I used to have a far more noble-sounding job title - until I discovered the people I worked for weren't quite as noble as I'd believed. Now I'm on the run and my only friend, a homicidal thunder mage, has invited me to join him on a suicide mission against the seven deadliest mages on the continent. Time to recruit some very bad people to help us on this job . . .

Running a little late with this morning, but 4.6⭐️ this is the first book I read by this author, it was my pic for my hometown book club read for July. I really enjoyed it, I have a lot of fun with the characters, the storyline, the magic system, and just the overall execution of the story. This appears to be the first book in a new series by this author that was just released this year. I‘m looking forward to book two.

3✨ This review is hard to write since I didn‘t love it, but I didn‘t hate it. I think my biggest thought is it was clever and funny. There was a lot of crude humor which I‘m not a fan of. It has a lot of characters with a lot of different abilities. I struggled to follow everything that was happening especially at the beginning I had to reread it several times.

Roary47 So I‘m going to try another series from this author, but not continue this one which appears to be turning into a series. #HomeTownBookClub @Littlewolf1 9mo

Yesterday was a late start for all of us. So didn‘t get much read. I did read my 3 serial Reads, started my #LotRChapterADay from #FellowshipofTolkien started my #HometownBookClub book on audio (the tagged) and read some of Tress and Nancy Drew. I also finished a week of Bible reading with. 5 to go! Today I‘ve been trying to catch up to meet some reading goal due dates. 😬 @Andrew65 @Littlewolf1 @JazzFeathers @Daisey

I have been in a pretty big reading slump for the last several months, barely even reading my hometown book club book. However, June seems to have been a little bit of a better month for me and with July being my birth month I wanna hit the ground running. So here is my #bookspinbingo and #ChristmasInJuly TBR for this month. Here‘s to a great month reading.
