''The literary equivalent of a security blanket'' Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times bestselling author of The Name of the Wind ''This is one of Pratchett''s best books. Hilarious and highly recommended'' The Times This is where the dragons went. They lie... not dead, not asleep, but... dormant. And although the space they occupy isn''t like normal space, nevertheless they are packed in tightly. They could put you in mind of a can of sardines, if you thought sardines were huge and scaly. And presumably, somewhere, there''s a key...GUARDS! GUARDS! is the 8th Discworld novel - and after this, dragons will never be the same again! Readers adore Guards! Guards! ''You will enjoy it if you already enjoy fantasy; you will very likely enjoy it even if you don''t generally enjoy fantasy , because the humour, characterisation, and dialogue are ridiculously good '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐'' This is one of my favorite Discworld books and one of the best starting points for the Discworld newbies . . . It is a perfect introduction to the world of intelligent humour peppered with allusions to almost everything you can think of and smart conclusions that make you think and even ask the uncomfortable questions of yourself and the society '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''I love all the tropes and the way Pratchett deals with them. The whole novel is tongue-in-cheek and it''s a slight bit more delightful (IMHO) than all the rest of the novels that came before it. Indeed, it''s this one that sets the tone for all the rest '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

The Combat Codes is that rare book that fully satisfies me as an action fan'' Fonda Lee, author of Jade City '' The Combat Codes by Alexander Darwin is a chimera blending Science Fiction and Fantasy to tell a vividly-realized tale both focused and sprawling.

In its pages, expect to explore power, politics, and brutal violence, but I repeat myself'' Evan Winter, author of The Rage of Dragons '' This book kicks ass--literally and literarily !'' Richard Swan, author of The Justice of Kings ''If Mike Tyson wrote a sci-fi novel (and could write like he threw a right hook) it would read a little like The Combat Codes . Bare-knuckle brilliance'' Jackson Ford, author of The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind '' The Combat Codes was a fantastic read that takes you along the martial arts path of self-discovery. The storyline, training, fights and philosophy in the book made it highly enjoyable. Whether you are a martial artist, fan, or just an SFF reader, this book will be a lot of fun'' Kenny Florian, MMA Commentator and Ex-UFC Fighter '' The Combat Codes is combat as it was meant to be written : raw but elegant, a blend of the poet''s wordsmithing and the martial art master''s technical expertise. Better yet, it''s a fun, heartfelt story about the underprivileged banding together to rise up. A fantastic reading experience'' Moses Ose Utomi, author of The Lies of Ajungo '' The Combat Codes is a well-paced sci-fi brimming with action, brutality, thoughtfulness and heart. From ruthless underworld to storm-harried, glistening academy, every fight is clear and visceral, and I couldn''t help but be ensnared by the mystery and tension woven throughout. I can''t wait for the next chapter in Cego''s journey!'' H. M. Long, author of Hall of Smoke '' The Combat Codes is a perfectly balanced cocktail of high-octane action, enthralling mystery, and genuine heart. Fans of Geralt and Ciri or the Hound and Arya will adore the dynamic between Murray and Cego, and fans of badass fight scenes will find plenty to love in these pages. A gritty, fully-realized world sets the stage for lovable (and hateable) characters, heart-pounding action, and twists that literally had my jaw dropping. Readers won''t want to miss this one!'' M. J. Kuhn, author of Among Thieves '' The Combat Codes is a great read for any fan of realistic martial arts fiction. The integration of a compelling sci-fi / fantasy plot and true-to-life martial arts action make for a unique story that any student of warfare is sure to enjoy'' Ryan Hall, UFC Fighter
