Hellbender

By: Frank J. Fleming

Narrated by: Austin Rising

Doug wasn’t sure whether he should trust Satan.

The red flag was that he said he was Satan. But the deal was good: Listen to Satan’s story in exchange for some donuts. And Doug only half-fulfilled his part of the bargain.

But maybe he should have listened better, because during his friend Bryce’s next scheme (theft with light to moderate treason - the usual), Doug and the rest of his friends - Lulu (the fun one) and Charlene (the not fun one) - end up with a powerful artifact, a small metal cube with world-ending power that Lulu decorated with bunnies. And now everyone wants the bunny cube, which means Doug, Bruce, Lulu, and Charlene are being pursued by a insane supermodel general, an army of sadists, a vast criminal organization, a smaller, more-in-startup-mode criminal organization, and an unstoppable killing machine - the worst kind of killing machine.

Doug and his friends may be a bunch of losers who aren’t particularly smart or good at anything, but they have one thing going for them: a really cool name for their mercenary group. And now it’s up to Hellbender to save the world - well, what’s left of it. It’s pretty ruined and war-torn already. But, you know, they live there, so they kind of need it.

It’s a mess, but that’s what you get for listening to Satan. Or half-listening.

Hilarious tale, brilliantly read

Can the least competent band of heroes this side of the 3 Stooges succeed in saving the world? That's the central question of Frank J. Fleming's hilarious satirical thriller. Austin Rising brilliantly provides easily identifiable voices for a half dozen main characters and dozens of secondary ones to tell a twisted tale in an easily followed performance.

Top Notch

This book is amazing. So creative, so relevant, so random at times. Frank J. Fleming has quickly become one of my favorite authors.

Austin Rising does an amazing job with this story. I have listened to this audio book several times through, and Austin is one of the reasons why.
