Darkly funny, profane, erudite, bawdy, and wickedly original,
Jesse Bullington''s The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart marks the
debut of an amazing new talent. I loved it Jeff VanderMeer A pair
of the vilest, meanest, most murderous thugs ever to grace the
pages of a fantasy novel ... This is not for the faint-hearted or
the queasy - imagine Tarantino crossed with Rabelais Guardian ''This
is a tale grimmer than the grimmest of the Grimms, redolent of
blood, excrement, vomit and putrefact
內容簡介：
In the plague-wracked and devil-haunted darkness of Medieval
Europe, an elite few enjoy opulent lives while the majority eke out
a miserable existence in abject poverty. Hungry creatures stalk the
deep woods and desolate mountains, and both sea and sky teem with
unspeakable horrors. For those ill-fated masses not born into
wealth, life is but a vicious trial to be endured before the end of
days. Hegel and Manfried Grossbart could give a toss. Being of low
birth means little, after all, when the riches of the mighty wait
just inside the next crypt. The grave-robbing twins know enough
about crusading to realise that if one is to make a living from the
dead, what better destination than the fabled tomb-cities of Egypt?
But the Brothers Grossbart are about to discover that all legends
have their truths, and worse fates than death await those who would
take the red road of villainy ...
