Publisher's summary

Magic, immortality, extreme good looks…being an elf definitely has its perks.

Unless you’re like me: a little too carefree, and take a nap that ends up lasting a few thousand years. You can imagine my surprise when I woke up to find that the face of Liora had changed entirely.

Gone was the dominion of elves over the world. I had landed right into a period of intense land grab, where Champions were fighting to stake their claim. For any regular chump, this might have seemed like the worst time to resurface, but I’ve lived a long life, and where others see peril, I see opportunity.

Oh, I’m sorry, where are my manners? I haven’t even introduced myself! The name is Percius, strategist supreme and proud leader of the Phoenix Mercenary Company. If you can afford me, I’ll lay siege to any city or reclaim any lost territory. Yes, I may talk a big game but I have the wits, spells and skills to back it all up.

You want proof? What about I get back at that Champion who did you wrong? What about I chase away those monsters who took up residence within your iron mines?

My prices may not be cheap, but I promise I’m worth every last gold…or is it aurum nowadays? And who’s that Charles guy I keep hearing about?

If you liked CivCEO but thought it would have been even better with a little fighting, this is the series for you! CivMERC is a CivCEO spin-off that’s all about siege warfare, battle tactics and steel meeting steel! It takes place during the Great Land War (books five to seven of CivCEO). It can be listened to as a standalone, but you’ll get the most out of it if you’ve listened to that series before.

More adult than CivCeo titles..

It took a moment to get used to the change of direction the author took in this book of the Civ world. Its more adult, more gritty and gives you a different feeling, BUT it was a good book once you got in to it and it flowed pretty well. The narrator (and "high brow" accent) was good, and the story is a full POV of the main character. I wonder if the author plans to continue to expand the CIV world in the other classes.. CEO -> MERC -> MAGE, PRIEST, ASSASSIN, etc.. It would be a good point of view approach and it does not need so many books (maybe 1 or 2 at most) for the specific class. It would be VERY cool if the CEO book were to tie-in (or brief appearance) from some of the characters of these specialty books. Looking forward to the next books..

Not as good as Civ CEO

Its not a bad read but it just flows awkwardly. I think the time would better be spend working on his other series(civCEO)

very good book

I really enjoyed this story, and though I would not recommend listening to it aloud if you have children it's a very good story. I honestly like it better than civceo, and hope it's next book comes out soon.
