Monster's Mercy

By: William D. Arand

Narrated by: Andrea Parsneau

Length: 14 hrs and 36 mins

Publisher's summary

An existence spent being forced to kill others to satiate a Monster.

Where the only thing to look forward to was the blessed, if brief, period of time between paying that bribe.

Except that very same Monster is and isn’t Rene.

It just happened to live inside his own mind and force him to do what it wanted. Rather than being an actual Monster.

That was Rene’s entire life until a fateful day changed that.

A day that the career as a hitman for hire built on the Monster’s needs will end. Where Rene will be forced to atone for his actions. To be held accountable and judged.

Except the verdict is already long since passed and needs no deliberation.

His sentence was being sent hundreds of years into the past, into a different world even, where he must live a life for the betterment of others. Every action judged as it happens and weighed out against him.

But even this new idyllic life he’s been living in for 18 years is about to go off the rails and Rene will be forced back into a life lived in the underworld.

Armed with a few gifts granted to him by the one who judged him, gifts better suited to a fantasy about living in a video game, Rene has to maneuver his way back to his new life while using all the things he’d learned in his old one.

Except using those skills is a double-edged sword. If he’s not careful, he’ll end up right back where he started.

Dead and on his way to hell.

Warning and minor spoiler: This novel contains graphic violence, undefined relationships/harem, unconventional opinions/beliefs, and a hero who is as tactful as a dog at a cat show. Listen at your own risk.

Bloopers should be required

Hilarious ending, but having listened to the bloopers chapter I'll now be disappointed in books without one!

excellent just phenomenal.

this is one of his best books to date. it has great action, character, and world building. the harem members are also excellently done.

Super great story

I freaking loves this book, my favorite book by Arand so far. Andrea did such an amazing job narrating. The Monster was my favorite character and the 'baby shark' scene had me literally laughing out loud, was so funny!

amazing

rather funny book. great story. the outtakes at the end killed me with laughter. love Andrea!

A fun psycho

this was different but very entertaining
But I have to say the ending had me laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes .
Can't wait to for the next book

Get it.

loved this. it is a bit of a darker book. but at the same time the "monster" made me actually laugh out loud more often then than I would have expected when starting the book.

Frankly the best by the author

I do not give 5 stars regularly, however I immensely enjoyed this book.

The story is compelling, the narrator is top notch, the characters are interesting and although this is the first novel, I hope to read and listen many more.

every little thing he touches is magic

Seriously. William/Randi is like a Police song. Even though my life before (his books) was tragic, now I know my live for (his books) goes on.

Why can’t other books have this good of a story and reader?

The story is great. Very on brand for William D. Arrand. The performance was superb and I love the inclusion of bloopers into the end of the book.

.

that was easily the best book I've read! and the ending was better than any book movie or show I have have seen and can't wait for the next books audio. it's been an hour since I finished the book and I can't stop laughing.
