Evil Men

By T.J. Land
Evil Men by T.J. Land digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Skitter is a thief in search of a challenge.

Some would say that his life is challenging enough, having been born poor and rebellious of spirit, and never having grown beyond four feet tall. And perhaps they'd be right – except that the love of his life just left him and if he doesn't find a sufficiently deranged trial to sink his teeth into, despair will consume him utterly.

So he's going to rob a dragon.

Evil Men Reviews

4.0
“I massively enjoyed this, even though it was NOTHING like I was expecting (but then, when does Land ever do the expected???) Step lightly; this is a lot darker in places than the blurb might suggest, but I think Land pulled off what they were going for, and the book still had me laughing out loud plenty. One massive twist I really enjoyed; one twist/reveal seemed really unnecessary/pointless. It's not perfect. But overall? I had SUCH a fun time with this, it gave me a few galaxy-brain moments about things I've always taken for granted, and I ended up loving most of the characters. The romance was EXTREMELY unconventional, but I'm here for it. I think a lot hinges on whether you think that if a person does terrible things or is a terrible person, that's it - or whether you accept that they can change. Or sometimes, not change, but that it's still better - not even really from an ethical perspective (though arguably that too) but from a purely mercantile one - to not write people like that off, and leave them to get worse, and/or potentially gather other terrible people around themselves. One minor character is a wifebeater, and there is no fixing or undoing that, and I never got the impression that we were supposed to like/approve of him, or forgive him for what he'd done - just understand that, if he'd been left without direction and written off, he probably would have become even worse. And so it's better to take people like that and give them a place, something to do, so that they don't fall into worse company and become worse themselves. If that is something you vigorously disagree with, then this probably isn't the book for you. But if you can roll with that messaging - either because you agree or because you don't care - then you'll probably have a ton of fun here. Personally, I'll definitely be reading the sequel!”
