Tyrant's Throne

A very good conclusion to the Greatcoats series as we see the final trials of Falcio, Kest and Brasti to secure the throne and bring their country back from the brink of self-destruction. There's new problems on the horizon for our trio of heroes that they set their heads against with their usual poor-odds, pantsing style.

By book 4 there's little more I can say that I haven't already about the writing, the characters and the storytelling - all very good and enjoyable. If you made it as far as Saint's Blood then it's entirely worth it to finish off the series in Tyrant's Throne.

For the series as a whole, I am glad I decided to join in a readalong and got introduced to this immensely fun world that is so compelling and easy-to-read while remaining thoroughly epic without much magic involved. It is definitely worth a read if you enjoy a lot of sword fights, a smidge of politics, a touch of foreboding and three central characters who are a tightly bonded unit who are loyal to each other.
