Dangerous to Know

The Chronicles of Breed, Book 1

De: K. T. Davies

Narrado por: Chris Coxon

Deadpool meets Game of Thrones in this thrilling tale of demons, dragons and treachery.

After Breed, a thief-assassin of small renown, is chased by a dragon, tricked by a demon, almost killed by a psychopathic gang boss and hunted by a ferocious spider, life really takes a turn for the worse. Sentenced to five years bonded servitude to a one-handed priest magician, Breed must find the hammer of the ancient hero known only as The Hammer of the North within a year and a day...or else. So, with only a drug-addicted vagrant, a rat-faced child and a timid priest for backup, Breed sets out for the mighty city of Valen and the tomb of the Hammer. What could possibly go wrong?

Grim, dark and funny, Dangerous to Know is the first audiobook in the epic sword and sorcery trilogy The Chronicles of Breed.

When it was first published in 2014, this story was short-listed for the Robert Holdstock, British Fantasy Society, Best Novel Award.

Not exctly what I like.

Just realized that there are different styles of writing and this book seems to be written in what I call single story line. It doesn't split into separate "mini stories" and I just didn't care for it.

Painful reading

I think the story was ok, I couldn't make it past 3 hours in. The reading is painful and a dont remember much outside of that voice...

Long pauses between sentences makes hard listening

the story was good but the reader sucks. way to long o pauses between sentences

I really enjoyed this book start to finish.

I loved it!!!!! it was engaging from start to finish. It made you want to finish and see what would happen next!!!!

Long pauses?

The narrator pauses way too long. Made me flick my headset on and off a few times... frustrating. Other than that it was good.

Loved it

I'm not sure when I purchased this book but it had been in my library for some time, I kept skirting by it finally deciding to have a listen to see what it was about I honestly had a hard time putting it down. Wonderfully narrated, extremely entertaining and laugh out loud in places I can't wait to listen to the next.

needs better narrating

could be a good story, main character alittle self absorbed? is he a master warrior or someone who thinks he is? all big fights he loses. surrounding cast alittle under developed, tobias seems over powered for his demeanor? and breed to under powered for his arrogance? not earned arrogance? as for people fearing his power? it wasn't setup good due to lack of power? interesting story but more development is needed

A Delightful, often unholy, Story Full of Fun

This Novel is full of humorous and interesting characters with lighthearted disrespect for traditional values. The main character is an amoral rogue who often does the heroic thing despite himself. Almost no romance but embroidered with love and caring for other characters.

narrator isn't bad, this is bad editing.

I feel like this narrator does a fine job. The akward pauses could easily be edited out.

Sure! Here’s a confused book review for Dangerous to Know by K.T. Davies:

⸻

Okay, so I just finished Dangerous to Know by K.T. Davies, and honestly, I’m not really sure what to make of it? Like, on one hand, the story was super intense and filled with these shady characters doing mysterious things—but then at times, I wasn’t really sure who was who or what exactly was happening. The plot seemed to jump around a bit? Sometimes it felt like a thriller, other times almost like a romance, but then also kind of like a crime procedural?

The main characters? Well, there’s definitely some serious chemistry, but also some moments where I was like, wait, are they working together or against each other? It’s a bit murky. The tension was definitely there, but I kept wondering if I missed something important in the middle because the motivations got a little fuzzy.

And the writing style—sometimes it was really gripping and sharp, but other times the descriptions were confusing, like I couldn’t picture the scenes clearly. Maybe that was intentional? To make the story feel more chaotic? Not sure.

Overall, I think I liked it? Or maybe I was just really intrigued by the mystery even if I wasn’t totally following everything. Definitely a book that made me scratch my head but kept me reading. If you want something that’s a bit of a puzzle with some danger and complicated relationships, maybe give it a try—but don’t expect all the answers right away, because honestly, I’m still trying to figure out what just happened.
