About the author
K.T. Davies
22 books183 followersI was born in Yorkshire. I have a degree in literature and a modest comic collection. I share my life with an understanding partner, two savage children, three silly dogs, and an angry cat. I’ve lived in t’north and the Republic of China but currently reside in suburban bliss in the West Midlands.
I’ve worked as an actor, a teacher, and a scaffolder amongst many other things. Until recently I made theatrical props for a living. Have a look at www.antrobusandgrimm.co.uk to see how I (used to)roll.
I’m a nerd and proud, and play with swords and other pointy things from time to time as well as 'puter games.
Pointless trivia bit:
I once fell down the highest mountain in Taiwan and was led to safety by a couple of tribesmen in exchange for some cigarettes. I have also been taught how to wrestle by ‘Crybaby’ Jim Breaks.

And so here we are on the final book of this wonderful series and by this time I know what I’ll be getting; one foul-mouthed, cynical, and unpredictable character who isn’t a hero by any stretch, lots of fast paced sword play, unusual characters, a wonderful world and a conclusion to this tale. Now where to start?
The plot focuses on Breed being pulled into another mess of blades, politics, and betrayal. The pace is quick, and every chapter feels like it’s moving the story forward, whether through violent confrontations, scheming (there’s a lot of this), or sharp exchanges of dialogue. Throughout the book it feels like it’s building up to a final conclusion but it’s not rushed nor is it padded out. If you know how Breed’s mind works and what his ultimate goal is you know what he’ll go through to achieve it.
”A thug being used by more powerful thugs is still just a thug.” - Breed
Breed’s is still the standout character, he’s sarcastic, crude at times, but always quick-thinking, and that makes the story feel alive and dangerous because there’s no safety net or moral compass keeping things tidy. The supporting characters bring their own stories and personalities to the mix and I love the unexpected ones. They’re not just background figures they usually have their own motivations and grudges which adds complications to Breed’s already messy world. Loyalty is rare, betrayal is common, which gives the book a constant edge.
”It’s what I do. I make mistakes and I create chaos.” - Breed
Overall, it’s a solid 5 star finale to the series. It doesn’t reinvent the formula, but delivers more of the fast-moving action, sharp dialogue, and a lead character who’s easy to love that we have come to expect. If, like me, you enjoyed the earlier books, this one gives you more of what you came for; a dark, dangerous, and unpredictable ride. And what a ride it’s been, so long Breed and thanks for the fun..

Eagerly awaiting the last of the chronicles of Breed ( possibly the best antihero I've read about in years), as usual, waiting for the day I could get it from Amazon, wondering how KT Davies would better the last one.
Fast paced, witty dialogue, originality and just great story telling, she hasn't disappointed.
Highly recommend if someone would like to know if Deadpool walked in to AnkMorpork.
Brilliant.

The book itself is pretty good, you should definitely check it out if you have read the previous 2 books.
However, I must admit I am losing my love for the series after the 3rd book. From then on it feels unnecessarily drawn out. Even this book ends on a cliff hanger!

Wow
Amazing book 6 of Breed's journey, with a spiralling storyline and wonderful humour if you haven't already, you've got to read this series.
