Rise of the Giants

Heaven's Dark Soldiers, Book 1

De: Steve Gilmore

Narrado por: Jeremy Arthur

Death was supposed to be the end. For Dean Robinson, it was just the beginning of his worst day ever.

Dean Robinson thought soldiering was tough. Turns out getting killed by a fashion-obsessed fallen angel wasn’t rock bottom either.

No longer mortal but not quite divine, he’s now caught between Heaven and Earth, leading a ragtag crew of supernatural misfits against an invasion of ancient giants hell-bent on wiping out humanity.

A dash of borrowed grace, zero instruction manual—just Dean’s razor-sharp wit and a squad of arcane misfits who might be wilder than the monsters they hunt.

From Boston's gritty streets to Heaven's back alleys, this isn't your Sunday school mythology. It's a balls-to-the-wall urban fantasy where biblical prophecy meets modern warfare, ancient legends crash into contemporary chaos, and saving the world requires equal parts magic and beer.

The fate of mankind rests in the hands of the most reluctant hero imaginable. What could possibly go wrong?

Perfect for fans of Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid Chronicles, or Steve McHugh’s Hellequin Chronicles.

Accidental Good Choices

What a happy surprise when I accidentally purchased this book. It had me hooked right away. On to the next one in the series

Nice listen

Looking forward to future books from this author. Couldn’t stop listening to it! Highly recommend

Good book and great intro to the lore

enjoyed the overall narration and story. Easy listen and laugh out loud moments. I definitely recommend it.

A must listen!

Excellent series, Excellent characters! A must listen series. Waiting for book 3 to come out.

good start with good storyline

Story was great with lots of potential. Storyline was very slow moving and the MC was likeable but started out as military but slowly moved to snarky comedian. Some parts of the other characters we don't know full background like the leader of the Deacons Stephen. Story has a lot of ways to go... hope the second book closes some loops without the world being destroyed

an amazing adventure. a must read/audiobook listen

A great read from page 1. the characters are relatable and likable. I just loaded the remaining of the series and I'm excited for book 2. the narrator was perfect must read and audio book listem

Love the take on good versus evil!!!

I just found this author and wow was it a great story! Well written, engaging and while I frequently don’t care for first person storytelling it absolutely worked here. I listened to the audiobook and the narrator is one of my favs so it was a total win. Am grabbing the next books in the series now! Highly recommend!

Great listen!!!

This was everything I wanted it to be and I can’t wait for the rest of the series

Fantastic story!

This was my first audio book and it surpassed my expectations! These books were so good when i first read them but listening to them just took them to new heights. Gilmore did an amazing job painting a vivid picture while the Arthur's portrayal of the different characters made this story come to life!
I can't wait to hear more from Gilmore and I hope he can land Jeremy Arthur to narrate the rest of his books.

I enjoyed this

This was a fun listen, the story was good and the narration was outstanding. I really enjoyed the humor of the main character. Five stars! I’m keeping an eye on this one. Good job!
