Shades of Black I

In Darkness Cast

De: Jonathan Shuerger

Narrado por: Nick Denton

On the world of Sinai, the last walls of the last kingdoms of Man crumble before the demonic armies of the East. Hope fades as casualties mount before the relentless onslaught of a trifecta of fallen angels.

Gideon Halcyon is fearless and idealistic, but he lacks the training to truly make a difference. He believes his dreams of heroism unattainable, until he meets Ashkelon.

Coming from the Void beyond the world, Ashkelon alone survives the ruined world of Avalon. Cynical and ruthless, he is a sorcerer of the Everlasting Dark, seething with millennia of bitterness, and his black sword shrieks with the last screams of a thousand failed heroes. Having failed to find a worthy champion of the Light, Ashkelon vows to forge Gideon into the hero Sinai needs, and the adversary he craves.

As the last of mankind’s strength drains away, a hero is born in Darkness.

Fighting with a side of adventure

Shades of Black delivered relentless, unabashed fight sequences, and a strong start for its series.

the small details that engulfed me and painted a picture as if i was there.

The storyline was fantastic, this is a book that a person can emergethemselves in. My expectations are high for the second book.

A great book!

This kind of book isn't usually what I read but I was surprised to find myself drawn in and couldn't stop. It is hard to follow sometimes due to jumping between multiple groups of people and feels like sometimes there isn't enough of a lead in to introducing new people but overall I found it detracted from the story minorly. This is a great listen and definitely well worth the time.

great 1st entry

being a marine myself I had high hopes for my brother in arms, he exceeded all of them

Suspenseful and enjoyably dark

When I started this book, admittedly I didn't have high expectations. However, it was recommended to me by a good friend who normally has good taste in books. HE DID NOT DISAPPOINT! This book may put on a dark and tough apperience in the beginning but don't let that fool you into thinking "Man, this is way to dark". Instead this book will take you on an incredible journey that will both supprize and delight you. I can not wait for the next book to come out! I'm talking to you Mr. Shuerger and Mr. Denton!
