August's Novel: The Devils by Joe Abercrombie

Please join us for a discussion of August's novel: The Devils by Joe Abercrombie.

Our meetings start loosely as people come in, get settled, and go to acquire what food and beverages they like. After everyone arrives or about a half hour has passed, we officially start the book discussion. Towards the end we set plans for the book poll and future meetings.

This meeting is at Barquentine Brewing Company. The brewery offers a variety of drinks and is part of Edgewater Public Market which has a wide range of small restaurants from which orders can be carried in. Please purchase what you can from Barquentine to be courteous to the company hosting us.

August's book description:
The Devils by Joe Abercrombie (2025) - 560 pages

Holy work sometimes requires unholy deeds.

Brother Diaz has been summoned to the Sacred City, where he is certain a commendation and grand holy assignment awaits him. But his new flock is made up of unrepentant murderers, practitioners of ghastly magic, and outright monsters. The mission he is tasked with will require bloody measures from them all in order to achieve its righteous ends.

Elves lurk at our borders and hunger for our flesh, while greedy princes care for nothing but their own ambitions and comfort. With a hellish journey before him, it's a good thing Brother Diaz has the devils on his side.
