Series: The Fall of the Gods

Featuring boardroom intrigue, masquerade balls, gondola chases, street gangs, and shapeshifting mages, Ryan Van Loan's The Justice in Revenge continues the Fall of the Gods series as Buc and Eld turn from pirates to politics and face the deadliest mystery of their career.

The island nation of Servenza is a land of flint and steel, sail and gearwork, of gods both Dead and sleeping. It is a society where the wealthy few rule the impoverished many.

Determined to change that, former street-rat Buc, along with Eld, the ex-soldier who has been her partner in crime-solving, have claimed seats on the board of the powerful Kanados Trading Company. Buc plans to destroy the nobility from within-which is much harder than she expected.

Stymied by boardroom politics and dodging mages at every turn, Buc and Eld find a potential patron in the Doga, ruler of Servenza. The deal: by the night of the Masquerade, unmask whoever has been attempting to assassinate the Doga, thereby earning her support in the halls of power. Blow the deadline and she'll have them deported to opposite ends of the world.

Armed with Eld's razor-sharp sword and Buc's even sharper intellect, the dynamic duo hit the streets just as the shadow religious conflict between the Gods begins to break into open warfare. Those closest to Buc and Eld begin turning up with their throats slit amid rumors that a hidden mastermind is behind everything that's going wrong in Servenza.

Facing wrathful gods, hostile nobles, and a secret enemy bent on revenge, Buc and Eld will need every trick in their arsenal to survive. Luckily, extra blades aren't the only things Buc has hidden up her sleeves.

Reviews for The Justice in Revenge (#2 Fall of the Gods)

"Praise for The Fall of the Gods series: ""The combination of strange magic, visceral action, and multilayered intrigue is sure to please.""--Publishers Weekly on The Justice in Revenge ""An intriguing fantasy, mixing plenty of mystery and magic to create a smart, fast-paced ride across the seas."" --Library Journal, starred review on The Sin in the Steel ""Starts with a bang and never slows down, rollicking through naval battles, sudden betrayals, and plenty of dark magic. This fast-paced high-seas adventure will satisfy genre fans looking for swashbuckling fun.""--Kirkus Reviews on The Sin in the Steel ""Ryan Van Loan delivers a swashbuckling romp, demons, pirates, dead gods, (30-50?) feral hogs, a war-weary Watson and a guttersnipe Holmes. I can't wait to see what's next."" --Max Gladstone, author of Empress of Forever, on The Sin in the Steel ""A blisteringly paced, amazingly fun and thoughtful read!"" --Fran Wilde, Nebula Award-winning author on The Sin in the Steel ""In the spirit of A New Hope, Buc and Eld conclude a story, but stand on a precipice of a much larger narrative that promises to blow the scope of The Sin in the Steel out of the water. If Scott Lynch wrote Pirates of the Caribbean, it'd be a lot like The Sin in the Steel."" --Tor.com ""The mysteries are carefully crafted to capture the imagination, and the hectic unravelling of schemes and unearthing of secrets are well worth the effort needed to keep pace.""--BookPage on The Sin in the Steel ""Van Loan's swashbuckling Watson and Holmes fantasy debut The Sin in the Steel is like a wild ride on a pirate ship. He's created a vivid and amazing world that readers are going to love from page one."" --K.B. Wagers, author of Behind the Throne ""The Sin in the Steel is a fun book with great characters and a whole lot of adventure. It gets my recommendation for fans of fantasy, and for those looking for their next great maritime read, this is it.""--FanFi Addict"
