WYMOND, THE CURSED BEAST

No one has seen him, No one can tell what he looks like, No one can tell if he's human, wolf, dragon, elf or vampire. We've only heard his very deep, hoarse voice that doesn't sound so humanly. We only know he's a ruthless beast, And that beast is the king of all supernatural creatures -he is King Wymond. He is an abomination -a mistake made by the moon goddess. There are rumors that he is immortal -are there still any immortals in this age? He walks the lands every night and kills any soul that crosses path with him or it, He never lets anyone see him and doesn't attend public meetings. He's always inside his palace, with those two big gates locking him away and isolating him from the world. Weird! How did he ended up becoming the king then? Every five years, girls who have come of age (18years to 25years), from different species (werewolves, vampires, witches, elves and dragons) are taken to his palace. We don't know why they are taken there, And we dare not ask why, because asking why is death penalty. And strangely, all the girls taken to the palace always come back alive, but they end up losing their memories of what had happened in there. No one has enough courage to investigate and find out what's going on -investigating is like walking into the valley of death. These are stories my grandma always told me when I was a kid, I don't know if they are real or if she was saying those things just to scare me.

What happens at the ending of 'In the Company of Ogres'?

The ending of 'In the Company of Ogres' is this wild, chaotic crescendo where Ned, the protagonist, finally embraces his true nature after fumbling through absurdity and near-death experiences. The book’s climax involves a massive battle where Ned’s rag-tag crew of misfits—ogres, zombies, and other fantastical creatures—somehow pull together to defy expectations. It’s hilarious and heartwarming, with A. Lee Martinez’s signature blend of satire and fantasy. What really got me was how Ned’s journey from being a perpetual loser to an unlikely leader feels earned, not forced. The final scenes tie up his arc beautifully, leaving just enough open-endedness to make you wonder about his next misadventure.

And then there’s the epilogue, which I won’t spoil, but it’s pure gold. Martinez drops this last twist that reframes everything in a way that’s both satisfying and ludicrous. It’s the kind of ending that makes you chuckle and immediately want to reread the book to catch all the foreshadowing you missed the first time. If you love stories where the underdog wins by sheer stubbornness and dumb luck, this one’s a gem.

Where can I read Ogres online for free?

Reading 'Ogres' online for free can be tricky since it's a recent novel by Adrian Tchaikovsky, and publishers usually keep tight control on distribution. I stumbled upon a few sketchy sites claiming to have it, but honestly, I wouldn’t trust them—half looked like malware traps. Your best bet is checking if your local library offers digital loans through apps like Libby or Hoopla. Mine had a waitlist, but it was worth it! Alternatively, some indie book blogs occasionally share excerpts or promo codes—I snagged a free preview chapter from a sci-fi newsletter last month.

If you’re into Tchaikovsky’s work, his short story 'Firewalkers' is legally free on Tor.com, and it’s a great intro to his style. For 'Ogres,' though, I’d say support the author if you can; it’s one of his wilder takes on dystopian societies, and the audiobook narration is fantastic. Otherwise, keep an eye on Tor’s giveaways—they sometimes do free ebook promotions for award nominees.

What is the plot of Ogres by Adrian Tchaikovsky?

I just finished 'Ogres' last week, and wow—Tchaikovsky really knows how to twist a classic trope into something fresh! The story starts in a seemingly medieval world where ogres rule as feudal overlords over smaller, human-like beings. Our protagonist, Torquell, is a rebellious young man who starts questioning the natural order after a violent encounter with the ogres. But here's the kicker: the deeper you read, the more you realize this isn't just a fantasy. Tchaikovsky layers in sci-fi elements that flip the whole premise on its head, revealing the ogres as genetically modified elites from a collapsed human civilization. It's like 'Planet of the Apes' meets 'Game of Thrones,' with a heavy dose of class critique.

The pacing is brisk, but what stuck with me was how Tchaikovsky uses Torquell’s journey to explore themes of power, identity, and revolution. The ogres aren’t just mindless brutes; they’re products of a system that’s rigged in their favor. By the end, you’re left wondering who the real monsters are—the ogres or the society that created them. I couldn’t put it down, especially when the story shifts into full-blown rebellion mode. If you like your fantasy with a side of existential dread, this one’s a must-read.

Is 'In the Company of Ogres' worth reading?

I picked up 'In the Company of Ogres' on a whim after seeing it recommended in a fantasy humor thread, and boy, was it a delightful surprise! The book follows Ned Spinks, a guy who just can't seem to stay dead, as he gets thrown into leading a ragtag band of misfits—ogres, zombies, and other oddballs. The humor is sharp and absurd, kinda like Terry Pratchett meets 'The Office' but with more swordplay.

What really hooked me was the way A. Lee Martinez pokes fun at fantasy tropes while still crafting a story that feels fresh. Ned's constant resurrections lead to some hilariously dark moments, and the ogres' sheer incompetence is oddly endearing. It's not deep philosophy, but if you want a light, laugh-out-loud read with heart, this one’s a gem. I finished it in two sittings and immediately loaned it to my cousin, who now won’t stop quoting the ogre cook’s 'mystery stew' rants.

Who are the main characters in 'In the Company of Ogres'?

I absolutely adore 'In the Company of Ogres' for its quirky characters and absurd humor! The protagonist is Ned, a guy who just can't seem to die no matter how hard he tries, which lands him in the most bizarre situations. Then there's Sarge, the gruff but oddly endearing ogre who leads the Deadly Company. Regina, the orcish sorceress, adds a mix of sass and magical chaos, while the shapeshifter Miranda keeps things unpredictable. The cast is rounded out by Gabel, the perpetually frustrated captain, and a whole host of misfits that make the Ogre Company feel alive.

What I love is how each character subverts expectations—Ned isn't your typical hero, and the ogres aren't mindless brutes. The dynamics between them are hilarious, especially when they bumble through missions that should be disasters but somehow work out. It’s one of those books where the characters stick with you long after you’ve finished reading.

Looking for 'In the Company of Ogres' online? I totally get the urge—A. Lee Martinez’s stuff is criminally underrated, and this book’s mix of dark humor and fantasy chaos is a blast. But here’s the thing: while some sites might have sketchy PDFs floating around, I’d really recommend against it. Not just for legal reasons (though yeah, piracy sucks), but because the experience is way better with a legit copy. The physical book’s got this gritty, almost pulp-fantasy vibe that adds to the fun, and Martinez deserves the support for how unique his voice is.

If budget’s tight, check out your local library’s digital loans—apps like Libby or Hoopla often have it. Or scour secondhand shops; I found my copy for like five bucks. Sometimes the hunt’s part of the joy, y’know? Plus, you’ll dodge those dodgy free sites riddled with malware. Win-win.
