Steadfast Hand

Steelforged Legacy, Book 1

De: M. Tress

Narrado por: Lewis Alexander, Rozelyn Rader

Sometimes in life, you feel like the world is out to get you. Nothing ever seems to work out the way you want it to, and everything just goes wrong all at the same time. But you have to bear up under the weight of life and just keep swinging. It can't stay bad forever, right?

That is what Casey Sullivan believed when he spent his entire young life in an orphanage, fighting for scraps and doing his best to not get shanked by the youth gangs there. When he had the opportunity to make a difference, he seized it with both hands and did everything in his power to pass the police academy.

He succeeded, and that's what killed him in the end.

But things couldn't be that easy. Because Casey's story doesn't end there. Something was pulling the strings the entire time behind the scenes. And when the puppet refused to dance to his tune anymore, the puppeteer tried to throw him away.

And it is at that place—lost between worlds and powerless—where he was found, and where Casey was given the opportunity to do the one thing that he desperately wanted.

Get revenge against the creature that toyed with his life, and ruined his death.

Steelforged Legacy is a progression fantasy, men's romance, western cultivation story that takes heavy inspiration from classic cultivation and combines it with an alternate take on Norse mythology. Even the gods can't always see the future right, and the world it is set in takes advantage of the fact that sometimes, even the Fates can make mistakes.

another great book

I really enjoyed this book the premise is awesome and the attention to detail is superb. I cannot wait for book 2 and any other of tress's books

Different twist of isekai

Big fan of author. Slow building but still very entertaining to watch the MC adjust and adapt to his new world. Can’t wait for the next one.

Tress nails it

I love this author! Their stories have such great details. Since this is a progression fantasy, anyone that has red, this type of book will feel right at home. This author does do a great job of the pace that the MC progresses was great about the story as it has it all a wrong MC, a thirst for justice and even a splash of romance. I’m really looking forward to see where he develops the MC in the next book.

Fantastic!!

This was a fantastic start to a new series. I'm looking forward to book two for voice actors we're phenomenal. If you like these types of books, I would recommend picking it up.

That horrid jersey/Long Island accent

I don’t know who’s idea it was to give the MC that horrid accent but it made the story unbearable to me.
