The Tower Broken

Milo, aka “Bane of Kings”, reviews The Tower Broken by Mazarkis Williams, the final act in the fantasy trilogy The Tower and the Knife, following on from the novels The Emperor’s Knife and Knife-Sworn respectively. Like the first two volumes, the third is published by Jo Fletcher Books – and was published in hardcover November 7th in the UK.

“An excellent final novel in the Tower and Knife Trilogy. Mazarkis Williams delivers a strong satisfactory conclusion and will certainly keep readers who have read Books #1 & #2 entertained right the way through. The Tower Broken is amazing, strong and continues the 100% track record that I have had with the incredible Jo Fletcher Books.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields

If you thought that Tom Pollock could not get any better, think again - The Glass Republic cements The Skyscraper Throne Trilogy’s place as one of the greatest urban fantasy works that I’ve had the pleasure to read, and we haven’t even had the third book yet.
