Redneck Revenant

The Adam Binder Novels, Book 4

De: David R. Slayton

Narrado por: Michael David Axtell

From bestselling author David R. Slayton, Redneck Revenant is an exciting new chapter in the Adam Binder series.

Adam Binder’s life has never been better. Sure, he has no money, no car, no home to call his own, and he’s worried about creating a future with his boyfriend Vic, but he’s closer to his family than ever before. He’s also Page to the Elven Court of Swords, and that appointment is not without its perks—like the invisible sword strapped to his back.

But on Halloween night, Adam’s life takes a disturbing turn. Annie, his brother’s long-lost wife, turns up on her husband’s doorstep alive and well, with no memory of her death. But is it really Annie, or a Trojan horse from some new magical enemy?

To uncover the truth, Adam will need help from those he loves most—as well as a couple of friends at Rogue Community College. As he navigates a perilous maze of magical politics and battles terrifying creatures from beyond the known realms, Adam will discover a secret darker and more unsettling than anything he could have imagined.

Another great story from Slayton

This was a wonderful continuation for the Binderverse. I've grown quite fond of the cast of characters and the blend of modern and fantastical elements.
And of course, the narrator delivers another nearly flawless performance.

Like checking in on old friends

Another lovely piece to a well-loved series! I love all the intricacies of this one, as well as all the little nods to RCC. Will definitely enjoy this book more than once!

Adam Binder is Back!!!

Hearing David Axtell say Adam Binder once again gave me goosebumps, from the beginning of this book I couldn’t put it down. This book is definitely a beautiful addition to the craziness that is Adam Binders life…

So good! Love the ending!

This was so cute! I loved how it brought together so many of the characters from throughout the series & had a cute little surprise in the end. Not my favorite book of the series, but I definitely liked it & will continue recommending this series to others! I loved it!

Fantastic

I’m not crying, you’re crying. Worst part of this book is waiting for the next one.
Can’t wait

Fantastic continuation of the Binderverse

Coming back to Adam Binder and his world is like sliding into the coziest sweater. I love this series and this narrator, and how Slayton handles everything from family strife to the politics of the Elven Court. I love the characters most of all and some surprise returns here were just the icing on the cake. Highly recommend!

Reading the adventure of an old friend

I finished the book today. And I have to say I really love this book series. The magic system is so unique. And Adam has had so much growth in the that it’s been amazing. The romance between Adam and Vic is beautifully done. And I can’t wait to see what’s next for those two.

The character development

Love this series! I’ve really enjoyed the character development and how each one plays a part in the story. Very excited to see where the next book takes these characters…if there is one!? Author does a fantastic job of creating this world between worlds. A vast underworld and mundane land of the living. Great read!

Yay, it’s Adam! Oh god, poor Adam!

Big fan of David’s books, and it’s so good to check back in with Adam! Twists and turns and more breaking of cycles! I can’t wait for Backwoods Banshee!

Making hard choices for the right reasons

I loved this installment in the urban fantasy series centered around Adam Binder and the world of magic which lies just beyond what most mortals see. It was hard to put down with its layered storyline, witty dialogue, surprising plot twists, light romance, and suspense all woven together in a captivating plot. This book picks up several years after the last book ended. Adam has settled into a new normal, working as a mechanic and as the Page of Swords, still dating Vic who is working as a chef, and still living in his brother Bobby’s house. On Halloween, a knock on the door reveals Annie, Bobby’s wife, seemingly back from the dead after three years. Adam, Vic, Bobby, and Dautre, an elf assigned to assist him, investigate Annie’s reappearance and the disappearance of mortal witches at the behest of the King. In the course of the investigation, Adam again gets to unpack a bunch of his past baggage and make deliberate choices about who he wants to be. The story includes what you’d expect from this genre - fighting, dangerous situations, end of the world scenarios, mysteries, paranormal creatures, loyal friends and family, complicated families, painful pasts, mystical coincidences, snark, love, secrets, and laughs. I love this series. 4.5 stars.

Michael David Axtell did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.
