Resumen del Editor

After untold centuries of absence, the evil Ancients have returned. Their magic appears unstoppable and their hunger for conquest is insatiable. To protect the country of Nia, Duchess Nadea and Scholar Paug make a desperate journey to find a human legend: a man known to have destroyed these Ancient foes with a powerful army.

But legends can lie.

When Paug and Nadea revive their hero from sleep, his virtue is far from clear.

Is he really their savior or their destroyer?

Contains mature themes.

uncomfortable sex with a too powerful protagonist.

While the characters that aren't the main character seem pretty real (aside from the women) the main character is more or less a god which removes much drama.
Also the enemies are stupid powerful just because.
Also, also the women in this book are totally written as characters just for the protagonist to swoon and sleep with. I thought to was gross and ended up skipping several sexual scenes.
I don't love the narrator either, he makes everything seems... weird.
Story is cool though.

could have been better

hard to get through. I think it was the narration. pretty mono tone and breathy with no difference between caricatures. made it very tough to fallow the story. though the story was good it did progress at its own pace. and obviously a series based book.

fun listen but...

this is a really interesting book and I'm going to get the rest of them. but damn, the sex scenes are weird. cutting off heads and killing elves then " my engorged penis exploded inside of her wet entrance. " that's not exact but pretty much. it's pretty metal but it just sounds so strange coming out of this dude's mouth.

The narrator is garbage

Worst narrator 🤢 ,The plot was amazing tho and I did enjoy the character development of all the characters just wish they get a new narrator.

Not the voice I wanted for the main character

I unfortunately stopped listening to this book because I keep finding myself not paying attention to the narration.

Is he coming back?

I know he was dropped by audible. dont know what happened but I really enjoy this series have listened to it like 3 or 4 times. I didn't enjoy the tamer series too much of the same thing and sex. This has a really good story and if you like a seriously badness main character this is up your alley.

I have always been a sucker for the ancient evil type books and this was pretty good.

I didn’t like the sex scenes and how every women in the book was described in light of how sexy they were. It came off as a teenage boy having a fantasy. It’s just cheesy.

great series

i think this story is really imaginative. I thought the book was great. great character description.

A really likeable xenocidal maniac.

Story first, a great mythic hero/villain of the distant past is awoken from his millenia and a half slumber to fight the elves. He proceeds murder the hell out of people, tries to get laid and pieces together his tragic past from slowly returning memories.
All in all a great time.
Now the big issue is the narration. He can't seem to come up with more than the one voice, at least not for long. There was one guy who had a different voice at the beginning but that dropped by the end. This kind of thing I can ignore. When you have the dude do sex scenes it's so unbelievably awkward.
4/5, Story makes everything so worth.
