Swords and Scoundrels
Swords and Scoundrels | Julia Knight
2 posts | 1 read | 5 to read
Two siblings. Outcasts for life.... together. What could possibly go wrong? Vocho and Kacha are champion duelists: a brother and sister known for the finest swordplay in the city of Reyes. Or at least they used to be-until they were thrown out of the Duelist's Guild. As a last resort, they turn reluctant highwaymen. But when they pick the wrong carriage to rob, their simple plans to win back fame and fortune go south fast. After barely besting three armed men and a powerful magician, Vocho and Kacha make off with an immense locked chest. But the contents will bring them much more than they've bargained for when they find themselves embroiled in a dangerous plot to return an angry king to power.... Swords and Scoundrels is the first book in The Duelist's Trilogy -- a tale of death, magic, and family loyalty.

Mehso-so

I didn‘t like the way the story was narrated and it got off to a SUPER SLOW start, but the world building was excellent and the story, once it finally started getting established, was really interesting.
Voch & Kas are kicked out of the guild for the death of a priest under their protection, but when they try to steal from the wrong coach, they land in a complicated web of blood mages, rebellion, and lies. 3/5 stars, needs more swashbuckling.
