Impossible Odds by Dave Duncan


Another fun stand-alone Blades tale, this time a journey to Duncan's version of Ruritania. More of the tale than usual is taken up with the tale of a main character before the Blades arrive, and the stakes are lower, as all that will happen if they lose is they will die.

I enjoyed Paragon Lost more, but this will re-read well I think. I always enjoy reading Duncan, and I am impressed at his ability to give each world he writes about quite a different feel; even his prose style seems to change a little for each separate world.

Impossible Odds first published 2003
