The Black Lung Captain: Tales of the Ketty Jay Chris Wooding

Darian Frey is down on his luck. He can barely keep his squabbling crew fed and his rickety aircraft in the sky. Even the simplest robberies seem to go wrong. It's getting so a man can't make a dishonest living any more. Enter Captain Grist. He's heard about a crashed aircraft laden with the treasures of a lost civilisation, and he needs Frey's help to get it. There's only one problem. The craft is lying in the trackless heart of a remote island, populated by giant beasts and subhuman monsters. Dangerous, yes. Suicidal, perhaps. Still, Frey's never let common sense get in the way of a fortune before. But there's something other than treasure on board that aircraft. Something that a lot of important people would kill for. And it's going to take all of Frey's considerable skill at lying, cheating and stealing if he wants to get his hands on it ...Strap yourself in for another tale of adventure and debauchery, pilots and pirates, golems and daemons, double-crosses and double-double-crosses. The crew of the Ketty Jay are back!

The Black Lung Captain Bewertungen

This is the kind of old-fashioned adventure I didn't think we were allowed to write any more, of freebooting privateers making their haphazard, underhand way in a wondrous retro-future world. Chris has given it a sharp modern edge that makes for a fast exhilarating read. - Peter F Hamilton.

There's a neat combination of swashbuckling excitement and wisecracking patter with sometimes surprisingly hard-edged violence, moral ambiguity, and a cumulative depth. It pulls the neat trick of sucking you in with pure entertainment value, and delivering substance while you're not looking. RETRIBUTION FALLS picks you up, and it whisks you swiftly and entertainingly along, and it sets you down with a big smile on your face. - Joe Abercrombie.
