The Incorruptibles - Tapa dura

5 * The Incorruptibles is a rare thing: a clever story and an action-packed one (SFX)

One part ancient Rome, two parts wild west, one part Faust. A pinch of Tolkien, of Lovecraft, of Dante. This is strange alchemy, a recipe I've never seen before. I wish more books were as fresh and brave as this (Patrick Rothfuss)

It's GUNSLINGER meets LORD OF THE RINGS. It is amazing." And "This book is legit amazing (CHUCK WENDIG)

Fantasy needs writers who push the envelope, and Jacobs finds the edge and tears right through it. If you want original, you've picked up the right book (MYKE COLE)

It's here that The Incorruptibles gets good. Great, I'd go so far as to say. Now that the stakes have been made plain, our heroes' real responsibilities revealed, and the overarching conflict at least alluded to, Jacobs' novel properly kicks off. What follows is grim and gripping, surprising and exciting, tense and tremendously well-told, too (Tor.com)

wildly innovative and highly readable story which, I think, should be nominated for quite a few awards next year. It is unlike anything else out there at the moment and I think many will be surprised by its unflinching ambition and often, beautifully poetic language (Upcoming 4 Me)

8.5/10 Fast paced, action packed with its unusual mix of Westerns, daemons and Ancient Rome (Fantasy Book Review)

This for me reminded me of the first time i read a Mark Lawrence, Scott Lynch and Joe Abercrombie, that sense of WOW, this is fresh and new and exciting. That i need to read more from this author very soon (Pandemenion Books)

This is an author with vision as we're slowly separated from our preconceptions (The Bookbag)

The Incorruptibles is not the longest book in the world, but its relentless drive, its tight focus and its identifiable characters leaves you wanting more at the end, and it is more memorable as a result of its brevity. Definitely an author I'd revisit again (SFF World)
