This book reminds me of when I read Sam Sykes' The City Stained Red. He was hilarious in Twitter (before I found out he was a pervert). But then I read his book. And found it really boring, meh plot, and not funny. Similar with this one. I listened to Eames in a podcast and he sounded really fun. But then I read this book. I can't even finish it.

3.5 stars, finished well. It's a D&D menagerie of monsters fighting mercenaries. For those who like lots of fights and battles mixed with magic and humor.
