SLAY (The Man in Gray Book 1)

The Slay Series, Book 1

De: Scott Sigler, Rob Otto

Narrado por: Scott Sigler

SLAY is the electrifying debut of a five-book series starring enigmatic anti-hero Lincoln Franks.

For millennia, a secret society known as the Bastion has protected mankind from the horrors of the Underskin—malevolent forces lurking unseen in civilization's shadows. Monsters, demons, spirits, lawyers, and Fortune-500 CEOs, the Underskin's fiends pray upon the weak.

When these creatures spill blood, it falls upon the rixators—the Bastion's elite warriors—to cut them down. Armed with ancient relics and modern weaponry, altruistic rixators hold the line against chaos. But a rixator's sworn oath of poverty grinds against Lincoln's life.

Faced with providing for his agoraphobic former partner, who was crippled by a monster, his father, whose life as a rixator left him broke and broken in an old folk's home, and his son who is imprisoned in a land of nightmares, Lincoln's got bills to pay.

Vow of poverty be damned—it's time to cut off some heads, collect bounties, and bring home the bacon.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The Witcher meets THE BOYS. Filled with irreverent humor and gleeful bloodshed. Highly recommended!" (Jennifer Brody, author of STAR WARS Stories of Jedi and Sith and A Sacrifice of Blood and Stars)

"Monsters, bastards, and things that go bump in the night don't stand a chance when the ruthless Man in Gray comes gunning for them. SLAY blasts along with Sigler's prose coming at you as hard and precise as the Man himself. Packed with action, clever ideas, and memorable characters this is Sigler at his very best." (Richard Kadrey, author of Sandman Slim and The Everything Box)

John Wick meets Harry Potter

This is an awesome story with a fresh take on a magical realm. I'm very excited to hear where this series takes us next! Twist ending was spectacular!

FANTASTIC HIGH BROW MODERN FANTASY

Scott Sigler is... for all intent and purposes, a modern day bard. his story telling abilities are second to none. His chops run the gamut, from futuristic space/sports sci-fi, genetic mutation sci-fi, straight monster horror, and now high fantasy meets seedy, dangerous high stakes underbelly stuff.

The man in Gray is a fantastic character, full of depth, and the supporting characters are excellent. Sigler's narrative abilities are showcased once again as well, with each character having a unique voice. He's just fantastic. I can't wait for the rest of this series!

great story

I'd go with different narrator next time. The range just isn't there and in many cases borderline insulting

A Must Listen!!

Man this book has everything that I love: violence, comedy, good story telling, and adult themes lol. It only took me 2 days to complete the book because it was so entertaining. Scott Sigler is my favorite author because of the crazy, interesting worlds and characters that he creates. The ending had me sad that I have to wait for the next book. Do yourself a favor and go listen!

Slay slays

Another great series starter. Sigler never disappoints! I immediately jumped to the pod cast to start book 2.
