Deadmen Walking

A Deadman's Cross Novel

De: Sherrilyn Kenyon

Narrado por: Holter Graham

#1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon debuts a sweeping new epic saga sure to appeal to her millions of fans!

Deadmen tell their tales . . .

To catch evil, it takes evil. Enter Devyl Bane—an ancient dark warlord returned to the human realm as one of the most notorious pirates in the New World. A man of many secrets, Bane makes a pact with Thorn—an immortal charged with securing the worst creations the ancient gods ever released into our world. Those powers have been imprisoned for eons behind enchanted gates . . . gates that are beginning to buckle. At Thorn’s behest, Bane takes command of a crew of Deadmen and, together, they are humanity’s last hope to restore the gates and return the damned to their hell realms.

But things are never so simple. And one of Bane’s biggest problems is the ship they sail upon. For the Sea Witch isn’t just a vessel, she’s also a woman born of an ancient people he wronged and who in turn wronged him during a centuries long war between their two races—a woman who is also sister to their primary target. Now Marcelina, the Sea Witch, must choose. Either she remains loyal to her evil sister and almost extinct race against Bane and his cause, and watches humanity fall, or she puts faith in an enemy who has already betrayed her. Her people over the totality of humanity—let’s hope Bane can sway her favor.

Deadmen Walking is the first historical fantasy title in New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Deadman’s Cross series. It is a tale of passion and loss, emotions that wound and heal…and ultimate redemption

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Graham draws on a seemingly limitless supply of different, growly voices to give life to the members of a demon-hunting crew of undead pirates. ...he easily shifts register and tone, pulling out lilting accents and softer voices for more innocent and vulnerable characters. Overall, his performance is strongest in the passages of dialogue, where his talent with accents gives variety to the interactions." -AudioFile

Pirates Fighting World Eating Evil

This is a fairly typical Kenyon story - there's even a Dark Hunter or two involved. It's got a fair bit of action, lots of very powerful paranormal beings - some of them really nasty - a dark, brooding hero who's been through a lot and a heroine who thinks she hates him, but probably doesn't really. There's a lot of history which probably isn't really necessary to the advancement of the plot, but that kind of world building is to be expected if you're a Kenyon fan and, since it's the beginning of a new series, it may be useful in later stories.
It's impeccably well read although with so many characters, the narrative did, sometimes become a bit hard to follow.
All in all, worthwhile listen, particularly if you're a Kenyon fan.

feels like you're missing a book

there's alot of back story that gets explained and terms you just eventually understand (or think you understand) their meaning. I'm usually a passive listener but this one required focus.

Greatly Enjoyed It

Steeped in myths and legends, this novel got me hooked and not I cannot wait to read about Devyl Bane and Mara. the action scenes were gripping. The romance sweet and a little steamy. and the sheer amount of sass, wit and sarcasm kept me listening.
As for Holter Graham....I love his voice and the way he reads. He is one of my favorite narrators so far.

excellent!!

Loving this! It connects so well with the rest of that world! Ready for the next one!!!

A much anticipated book

I have been anxiously awaiting for this book to release and it did not disappoint. While it takes place in the dark hunter world, it is its own story and characters. The narration was peefect for this book. It was an outstanding beginning and I can't wait for the next one!

Good Book

A little confusing, with trying to keep all the characters straight. unusual for her stories.
