Sinopse
In a world long ago ravaged by war, the nations have sworn an armistice never to use weapons of mass destruction again. Instead, highly-skilled warriors known as Grievar Knights represent their nations’ interests in brutal hand-to-hand combat.
Murray Pearson was once a famed Knight until he suffered a loss that crippled his homeland—but now he’s on the hunt to discover the next champion.
In underground and ruthless combat rings, an orphaned boy called Cego is making a name for himself. Murray believes Cego has what it takes to thrive in the world's most prestigious combat academy–but first, Cego must prove himself in the vicious arenas of the underworld. And survival isn’t guaranteed.
Resumo da Crítica
"Narrator Donald Chang faces a particular challenge with this audiobook: how to produce the sound of testosterone.... Chang skillfully animates the pair at the heart of this stirring work, former champion Grievar Murray Pearson and his latest protégé, the talented but callow Cego. In addition, Chang ably handles a multitude of predominantly male characters, including Cego's fellow fighters and government officials who are hiding a big secret. Chang's distinct characters ensure smooth listening despite the complexity of the story. What results is an engaging production for fans of action and speculative fiction alike." (AudioFile)
“A brutal and relentless science fantasy martial arts extravaganza, set in a world where the fate of nations rests on the perfect counterpunch or rear naked choke. The Combat Codes is that rare book that fully satisfies me as an action fan.” (Fonda Lee, author of Jade City)
"This book kicks ass—literally and literarily!"—Richard Swan, author of The Justice of Kings
"The Combat Codes is a well-paced sci-fi brimming with action, brutality, thoughtfulness and heart. From ruthless underworld to storm-harried, glistening academy, every fight is clear and visceral, and I couldn’t help but be ensnared by the mystery and tension woven throughout. I can’t wait for the next chapter in Cego’s journey!"—H.M. Long, author of Hall of Smoke
