An unlikely pair of brave adventurers - the Dutch explorer Gerard van Oost and the Yoruban warrior Oludara - travel the wilderness of sixteenth century Brazil. They aim to protect both the new colonies and the native inhabitants from dangers human and supernatural. Along the way, they encounter a host of creatures inspired by Brazilian folklore: from the brain-sucking Kalobo to the one-legged prankster Sacy-Perey.
This multi award-winning, Nebula-finalist series is now a novel - with new material, but the same mixture of action, adventure, humor, magic, and South American folklore that has won it fans the world over.
A fantastic romp through the colonial era, with epic battles, creepy creatures and wonderful set pieces.
- Aliette de Bodard, Nebula and BSFA Award winner.
A series that is quickly becoming my favorite in the genre of sword and sorcery.
- Elias F. Combarro, Sense of Wonder.
