Gangster, soldier, priest. Queen's Man. Governor. 

Tomas Piety has everything he ever wanted. In public he's a wealthy, highly respected businessman, happily married to a beautiful woman and Governor of his home city of Ellinburg. In private, he's no longer a gang lord but one of the Queen's Men, invisible and officially non-existent, working in secret to protect his country.

But when the queen's sudden death sees him summoned back to the capital, he discovers his boss, Dieter Vogel, Provost Marshal of the Queen's Men, is busy tightening his stranglehold on the country.

Just as he once fought for his Pious Men, he must now bend all his wit and hard-won wisdom to protect his queen - but now he can't always tell if he's on the right side.

Tomas has started to ask himself, what is the price of power? And more importantly, is it one he is willing to pay?

Another tale of Tomas Piety and his amoral journey into politics in the very grim, very dark workd that Peter McLean has crafted so superbly, listening to this you cam imagine what awful place to live it would, my only complaint is that Mr McLean constantly repeats the same sentences again and again, after the first 20 times it loses its novelty

Not that Pious!

In our Lady's name this is hotting up nicely to bring this amazing series to an explosive ending. Absolutely bloody brilliant, Priest Of Gallows is the third book in the War For The Rose Throne series and damn was it good, it was frigging awesome. Peter McLean's storytelling is beautiful, the intensity, the drama, the political machines with it's twist and turns will have you reading this in one sitting. For the life of me, I couldn’t put it down, the characters are just so captivating, especially the ones that you would love to hate and see swinging on the end of a Gibbet. I've read some excellent series this year, but this one is turning out to be my absolute favourite. A page turner from start to finish. The previous books were excellent but this topped them. I'm a 100 Pages into Priest Of Crowns already and will be very sad to see such an excellent series come to a conclusion. From the streets of Ellinburg, to the aristocracy of Dannsburg
Tomas Piety has everything he ever wanted. In public he's a wealthy, highly respected businessman, happily married to a beautiful woman and governor of his home city of Ellinburg. He has been called to Dannsburg by the house of law, home of the Queens Men to serve, but a very dangerous game is being played in the capital and Tomas Piety has come to play bringing with him his second Bloody Ann, Billy the Boy and the weeping women, his swords Remorse and Mercy. Let the political games begin. I can't highly recommend this gritty dark epic fantasy enough to all you fantasy lovers out there, check it out, you won't regret it...😁🖤💥🔥🥃🥃🥃

Bloody Excellent.

Like many of you, I hunt and hunt for something new and refreshing in this genre. The first three books are brilliant.
Father Thomas is a wonderfully gritty character surrounded by some almost as good ones. The world building is great, the description visceral and I can’t wait for the final chapter.
Peter McLean should take a bow, as should narrator, David Morley Hale.
It really deserves more reviews….

Just superb. A fantasy version of the Peaky Blinders

The whole series is a definite read.
