Excellently Grimdark.

Holy moly that was Grimmer, Darker and more gruesome than the first book Lord of Asylum. A fantastically told story that is enthralling from the very first page to the last. What I love about this series is the dark setting and detail the author Kevin Wright describes in some of the scenes would give you absolute nightmares. His worldbuilding and storytelling is excellent and if you love your fantasy to be Grimdark then look no further. In The Last Benediction In Steel Sir Luther Slythe Krait, his brother Stephan, Viking Karl and Lady Mary are on the run from Asylum. Their ship is slowy sinking and they are in dire need of repairs. They land themselves in an absolute shithole backwater port of Haeskenburg full of vile religious nuts and destitute nobles. Citizens have been going missing for the last few months, Sir Luther being the detective that he is, is giving the task of undertaking to find the murderers and the missing. Things are never straightforward for our Knight and what he uncovers are only unimaginable horrors that would only make a sane person run for the hills. Jez Sands narration is brilliant. Just bloody fantastic, literally, very highly recommended..😁🖤🔥
