Resumen del Editor

Max Abaddon just got his lucky break...kind of.

Max was just having one of those days until he soon realized everything that goes bump in the night is real. Most people inherit a house, a pet, or money. Max Abaddon wasn’t so lucky. His gramps left him a job that required him to learn that magic was real, and he’d better learn how to use it. Soon....

In his new role Max works with a team of eccentric mages based out of a facility called the Atheneum that has for a very long time managed the relationship between the normal world and well everything else.

To make matters worse, a string of high-profile murders ensure his transition is not going to be an easy one. Will the team stop the murderer? Is Max unknowingly part of a bigger scheme? Most importantly, will Max be able to have a normal life again and find time for a drink or two at his favorite bar, the Fallen Angel?

took a chance and wasn't disappointed

Was hesitant to start a new series from an unknown to me author, but so far Luke Daniels has been pretty good at picking books I will like.

Was unconvinced at the start with it feeling a bit generic (guy with nothing really going on at the moment, but has military training, gets dragged into the supernatural) but quickly found its own direction.

The characters were believable and well though out, and Luke Daniels put plenty of personality into them.

Pacing is wonderful with no point where I was waiting through filler wanting it to get on with the story, yet it didn't feel rushed.

I'm out of credits, but the next two books went right on to my wish list for later.

A bit Juvenile, but a decent listen

I am hoping that Max grows up a bit more in upcoming books. The story was pretty good, but Max’s immaturity is annoying at times. Also, it’s a fairly predictable plot line. All that being said, I will give the next book in the series a try. Oh, and please lose that weird out-takes/narrator rap thing at the end. Aside from that, the narrator did a good job.

Not bad at all

There was a lot of telling and not showing at at the beginning. I feel like the author rushed due to the lack of action from the beginning. But overall it's a pretty good story.

Great fun

Loved it! Great storyline, looking forward to more. Oh, and the bloopers, hilarious. Do it again.

captivating and entertaining

Really fun! Action packed with great characters! A portion of the story is resolved in the book while leaving you wanting to hear the rest.

Entertaining story with some narration problems.

Pros: Good book with an interesting ending. The story doesn't take itself seriously despite potential earth ending enemies, betrayal, and family issues.

Cons: Narration
Luke Daniel's constant air sucking after every other sentence just about ruined this audio book. His voice is good but to hear Luke sucking air constantly was too distracting. Suggestion? Hire an audio engineer to edit out Luke's air sucking. Took 1 star because of this only.

Enjoyable story, fun narration

Love the characters, the story, the world building.

I’m a Luke Daniels fan, and this performance was true to his talent. Multiple different specific accents, voices, monsters, pixies and more.

I will definitely read the next in the series!

so good...

thought it was gonna be like the other grandfather disappears and grandson become a wizard series...on paper it was...but it was awesome all the same. MC not completely OP yet is completely gullible...it works tho. keep them coming.

Good read

I had a hard time getting into this story in the beginning but boy I'm glad I didn't give up. Once you get going and get to know the characters a little the story starts to click. Petro has become my favorite character already. looking forward to the next installment. And as always Luke Daniels give a stellar performance narrating

great story

I loved this story and can wait to get more like this!!! I was glued to my headset like we were one!! loved the whole story completely
