Hero Forged

Ethereal Earth, Book 1

De: Josh Erikson

Narrado por: Josh Erikson

Gabe thought he had covered all the angles, but it’s tough to plan a contingency for accidentally trapping an evil god in your brain.

Gabriel Delling might call himself a professional con artist, but when walking superstitions start trying to bite his face off, his charm is shockingly unhelpful. It turns out living nightmares almost never appreciate a good joke. Together with a succubus who insists on constantly saving his life, Gabe desperately tries to survive a new reality that suddenly features demons, legends, and a giant locust named Dale - all of whom pretty much hate his guts.

And when an ancient horror comes hunting for the spirit locked in his head, Gabe finds himself faced with the excruciating choice between death...or becoming some kind of freaking hero.

Hero Forged is the first book in the new series, Ethereal Earth, a modern fantasy adventure that challenges the natures of myth, humanity, and what it means to be the good guy.

Hero Forged

Ok , let me start with I had no idea what I was getting into with this book . That’s not always a bad thing, I didn’t realize that the author is also the narrator. It’s a good thing cause I probably wouldn’t have bought it .
I am very glad I did ! It’s a fun ride . I was expecting the tried ok overly tried hero stick . You know , shepherd/farmer chosen/ Prophecy meets wise old sage/master you all the tropes . That is not what I got . Too my delight this is better , refreshingly good story interesting an remarkably likable characters an a nonstop ride into a magical unseen world . Plus this world is full of possibly.. I Eagerly await the next step in the story!
I have too give kudos to Josh Erikson not only did he create a great story with his written words . He brought it too life with an outstanding Audio performance , which is no easy thing. So if your like myself and love a good story , give this a try you won be disappointed.

Fun stuff

Normally the author narrating there book is hit or miss but I think Josh did a surprisingly good job. Enjoyed it and will read the next books.

Gteat start to the series. Can't wait for the next

Seriously. You need to read this right now. Great narrator even better writer. Keep it up!

Harry Dresden mixed with Bruce Willis

Take the world of American Gods, bring in Sneaky Pete as the main character, brutalize the main character like Bruce Willis from Die Hard, and you have Hero Forged. At times it was almost too much, hearing the pain the character goes through, but its all worth it in the end.

Great story

I was mostly skeptical of the author narrator combo. But I’ve got to hand it to him he has a solid story line and great dialogue.
