Publisher's summary

I don’t know who I am. I only know what I need to be.

I awoke in a tomb. I had nothing but a big sword and uncertain memories from uncertain lives.

I was a great warrior who wandered this land before being killed by an ageless tyrant wizard-king. I was a warrior of a very different sort, who lived in a city of steel and glass.

In this life, I’m more than I was–stronger, more powerful, more dangerous. But that wizard-king still lives, and he’s still hunting me.

All I have is my sword and my skills. So I’ll gather the gold, weapons, and women I need, and if that wizard gets in my way again...our next meeting will be very different from the last.

Mercenary of Empyrea is an isekai fantasy adventure in the theme of classic barbarian pulp fiction and contains graphic violence and unconventional relationships.

If you like Conan you will like this

Robert Howard would be proud of this book. This has great detail with a blend of action and adventure. I think the author has talent beyond the genre but made it fun for those looking for a fun well written book to relax with a good drink and just enjoy.

A Isekai story definitely.

This story has a few tropes that are in many Isekai books. So there’s some predictability with but in earnest it’s got women,treasure,and adventure. So enjoy it if it’s your cup of tea.

Now this is a story!

2 minds or memories in one body...what could go wrong? That's how our mc starts out and he has to navigate this world through the lens of both memories of who he was. He marries someone (I'm not saying who) who despises him. She tells him she has to be his, he can have her body and nothing else. Our mc says I won't touch you until you ask me to then let's her stew in her own juices (pun intended) while he proves just what type of good guy he is.

They is a lot of traveling and fighting which get our mc to get stronger faster. There is political stuff, religious stuff, funny stuff, dark stuff, fighting (did I mention that already) and of course, spicy stuff going on in this book. I highly recommend this audiobook for everyone's listening library.

Another great Isekai barbarian fantasy adventure!

Mercenary of Empyrea by Michael Dalton is another great Isekai barbarian fantasy adventure. Not sure why barbarians have been so popular this last year but this one doesn't disappoint. A fun adventure, great characters, and a good time as always with Michael's work. I look forward to book 2! Audio Version: Byron Ormond and Kat Riley do a great job with the narration and each of their characters.

Multiple memories, One Body

In most stories the multiple memories would cause the MC to struggle for balance, in this story he was able to adapt all his experience in harmony and use them to his advantage. Set in a Conan the barbarian type world, with all the action and fun that goes with it. You won't regrets giving this book a try. Enjoy!
