Narration Concering Books City of Blades (The Divine Cities #2)
A generation ago, the city of Voortyashtan was the stronghold of the god of war and death, the birthplace of fearsome supernatural sentinels who killed and subjugated millions.Now, the city’s god is dead. The city itself lies in ruins. And to its new military occupiers, the once-powerful capital is a wasteland of sectarian violence and bloody uprisings.
So it makes perfect sense that General Turyin Mulaghesh — foul-mouthed hero of the battle of Bulikov, rumored war criminal, ally of an embattled Prime Minister — has been exiled there to count down the days until she can draw her pension and be forgotten.
At least, it makes the perfect cover story.
The truth is that the general has been pressed into service one last time, dispatched to investigate a discovery. For while the city’s god is most certainly dead, something is awakening in Voortyashtan. And someone is determined to make the world tremble at the the city’s awful power again.

4 stars.A completely unexpected sort-of-sequel to a great book that I didn't think should have a sequel. City of Stairs displayed some incredible world-building and an interesting plot that came to a very logical end. I had serious doubts about the necessity of this book but, upon reading, have decided that it is quite necessary. The book takes place five years later in a different setting with a different main character and only weaves a few plot points into a story that could more or lessOne of my Hugo Award nominees, novel, 2016. ____The sequel to 'City of Stairs' open with what's likely the most entertaining 'calling-a-character-out-of-retirement' scene I've ever read. General Mulaghesh has tried to leave war behind and purchased a cottage on a remote beach. However, we quickly begin to suspect that her retreat isn't quite the haven she imagined. And now, an envoy has been sent from Saypur with a message for her - and a mission.After the initial scene, the POV switches - it

City of Blades is easily one of the best books I've read this year; it has almost everything I could ask for in a sequel that builds upon a fantastic start to a trilogy. It is a rare occasion that a middle book makes it into my favourites shelf, and to think I've almost decided to put aside reading The Divine Cities. Then again, City of Blades does not feel like a middle book because the previous story in City of Stairs is self-contained and had its resolution. By now, it appears to me that each
This was shockingly heart breaking.RTC.

I have been meaning to write about this book for last few weeks but my laziness always got better of me and I pushed forward writing a review to next day and then another day. Looks like today is the day when I will finally succeed in my attempt to write a not so long review here.This book starts five years after the events of City of Stairs and we see General Turyin Mulaghesh called back from her retirement to investigate the disappearance of a Saypuri agent in Voortyashtan. But when Mulaghesh
