About this listen

'High energy, highly unique, swashbuckling-cop-epic-noir story. Buy it. BUY IT NOW' Sam Sykes

The Greatcoats are back - and this time it's personal.

How do you kill a Saint? Falcio, Brasti and Kest are about to find out, as someone is doing just that, and they've started with a friend.

The Dukes were already looking for ways to weasel out of their promise to put Aline on her father's throne - but with Saints turning up dead, and Church Inquistitors pushing for control - rumours are spreading that the Gods themselves oppose her ascension.

The only way Falcio can stop the country turning into a vicious theocracy is to find and stop the Saint-killer - but his only clue is the iron mask encasing the head of the Saint of Mercy, which prevents her from speaking. And even if he can find the murderer, he will still have to face them in battle - and this may be a duel that no swordsman, no matter how skilled, can win.

Critic reviews

Combining old-school swashbuckling action with contemporary characters and a good dose of grit, these books are the rarest of things, great rollicking fun combined with an emotional punch . . . Sebastien, write faster!
This is a one in a million series. Each book is fantastic yet manages to be better than the last and with Saint's Blood Castell takes the characters and readers into some hugely unexpected and exciting places with the consummate precision and skill of a master dueller
Sebastien de Castell exhibits his finest form yet in Saint's Blood . . . If you enjoy fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat adventure and compelling, believable characters battling overwhelming odds yet never giving in, you can't beat the Greatcoats series. To read them is to love them
It's like The Three Musketeers with magic. On steroids. But for all of the wild adventuring, peril and spectacle, there is a real heart emerging from beneath it all
Sebastien de Castell keeps delivering amazing books, displaying his talent for weaving a web of humour, tension, ingenious plots and fantastic characters . . . An exhilarating journey that took me at breakneck speed through a whole array of emotions
Wildly entertaining and thoroughly intense, Saint's Blood is the kind of book that makes you wish all epic heroic fantasy can be this awesome
Huge amounts of adventurous fun, witty and incisive dialogue, a set of characters to die for and layer upon layer of fantastic world building - with laugh out loud moments interspersed with dark and dastardly doings. Plus swordfights. What more could you ask
From the first line we remember how funny the writing is in this series as we are immersed back into the world of the Greatcoats, their bone-plated attire and their dueling swords. . . De Castell retains that wonderful, witty delivery that made the first two books in the series such a success'
A perfect and fresh addition to the Epic Fantasy genre, I loved every bit of it . . . The bottom-line is: Read Saint's Blood
Don't hesitate to buy this if you love a great hero and story . . . What a voice! What story-telling brio! If you love Dumas, or Game of Thrones or The False Prince this is the swashbuckling fantasy for you.
One hell of a good book
High energy, highly unique, swashbuckling-cop-epic-noir story. Buy it. BUY IT NOW.
Highly entertaining . . . I loved everything about this book
One of my all time favourite fantasy series . . . simply stunning'
The character growth is stunning, the advancement of themes indescribable, and the escalation of tension to unimaginable heights breathtaking. I have no idea how de Castell can possibly top this, but you can be assured I'll be there to watch him try
All stars

Excellent blend of cultures, myth and fencing though I'm curious what lies beyond this land?

Damn, you know when you come across one of those series that just hits you right in the feels and just blows you away, well this is just that. Every book just gets better and better, the story, plot and my three favourite amigos Falcio, Kest and Brasti are excellent characters. Sebastian De Castell has you laughing and crying the way he puts his characters through the ringer. Absolutely fantastic world of good vs evil. In this brilliant third installment Saints Blood as we follow once more Falcio, Brasti and Kest who are caught up in major events as they support Aline against first the dukes and now the church and gods want in on the action.
Someone is killing saints horribly and ritually. When the Saint of Mercy succumbs to her injuries, Falcio and the Greatcoats must find out who or what is behind it. But now they face alot of enemies as the clergy have decided to step in and take control of the kingdom, with their stony faced inquisitors and religious disaffected knights and if things couldn't get any worse there are the unstoppable Needles, crazed zealots who have super strength and an insatiable desire for saints blood. If you love fast paced, action packed and good humorous scenes in your fantasy, checkout the Greatcoats, you won't be disappointed. Joe Jamesons narration continues to be brilliant, very highly recommended...😁💥🔥💙

Swashbuckling Excellent Fantasy

fantastic story with good characters and story where you don't really know what will happen makes you just want to hear more and more. The feelings, the thoughts also feel "authentic" in what a person would think and feel about the things they go through in the book.

Recommend this to all my friends and acquaintances who love fantasy books.

One of my favorite books in the fantasy genre
