A Crown for Cold Silver
Autor Alex Marshallen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 sep 2015
Twenty years ago, feared general Cobalt Zosia led her mercenary army and five villainous captains into battle, wrestling monsters and toppling an empire. When there were no more titles to win and no more worlds to conquer, she faked her death and gave up her legend to history.
Now the peace she carved for herself has been shattered by the unprovoked slaughter of her village. Seeking bloody vengeance, Zosia heads for battle once more, but to find justice she must confront grudge-bearing enemies, once-loyal allies and an unknown army that marches under a familiar banner.
Wildly exuberant and epic in every sense, A Crown for Cold Silver is an exquisitely twisted tale of revenge that turns epic fantasy on its head.
'Alternately irreverent and brutal, with a cast of wonderfully scarred and nasty people. Any fans of Steven Erikson, Mark Lawrence, or Joe Abercrombie will love A Crown for Cold Silver'
Django Wexler
'Brimming with imagination and invention . . . Fabulous!'
John Gwynne
'Instantly believable. Zosia and her Five Villains are as fun as they are twisted.'
David Dalglish

"Brimming with imagination and invention... Fabulous!"—John Gwynne
"Exceptional writing, middle-aged warrior heroine, and organically infused gender nonconformity make this fantasy epic a first-rate trailblazer... splendid storytelling, wry humor, and unresolved intrigue."—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

"This sweeping adventure is a first from Marshall and delivers a colorful cast. It sparkles with details that make a fantasy world come alive: echoes of cultures jumbled together in new ways, drug addicts who allow poisonous insects to sting them for a high, and unusual gender roles and depictions."—Library Journal (Starred Review)
"Full of bloody battles, intimidating monsters and incredible feats, fans of thoughtful storytelling, tough-as-nails heroines and absorbing fantasy will love this novel."—RT Book Reviews
"Marshall's rich cast of characters .... are driven by passion, duty and humanizing, terrifying flaws... A Crown for Cold Silver drags epic fantasy through the mud - but it does so with wit, wonder and wisdom."—NPR Books
