Resumen del Editor

In the years before the Grey God's Pact, the Gods of Light and the Gods of Darkness waged war upon the Mortal Plane. Fighting alongside them were armies of men and monsters. The Champion Daniel, a Paladin of the Light, leads a band of warriors into the wilderness to defeat one such being, Rexin the Blasted, before the creature engulfs the entire Mortal Plane in an endless darkness.

Daniel, scorned for his heritage as the child of a rapist, must first come to terms with his own identity and what he is willing to do in the name of the greater good. Sometimes, wicked deeds can destroy wicked things.

Roll the dice on a fun story with great narration!

Sometimes it's fun to roll the dice on a random book like this. And sometimes it pays off and you have a lot of fun listening to it! To be clear, don't buy this book expecting LOTR. This is a 3 hour long fantasy novella, so temper your expectations. What you can expect is a fun fantasy setting, entertaining characters and a very good narration, and frankly, that's enough for me.

I don't want to touch too much on the story cause it is pretty brief so I don't want to risk spoiling anything. The author does a pretty good job world building considering how short the story is, and he's pretty solid with descriptive prose. I will say that the only thing that threw me off was the main character's name, Daniel. In a world with Seraphs and wild beasts and other fantasy fixtures comes a guy named Daniel. His name just kinda threw me off at first, but it doesn't really detract from the story and you get used to it.

Also I really did enjoy the narrator, she's got this dramatic kind of voice that makes things seem a lot more exciting, I dunno. I actually think it made the story seem more interesting. She's pretty good with doing distinct character voices, it was almost always clear who was talking, but that's not really why I liked her. It was that overall gravitas she adds to the story that's the real reason I liked her. I might actually check out more of her work.

Anyways, I'd check this book out if you want something short and consumable. If you're like me you've got waaaaay too many credits stored up, I've been checking out random books like this, and sometimes you find hidden gems!
