Salvation's Dawn: An Epic Fantasy Saga

Eve of Redemption Book 1

De: Joe Jackson

Narrado por: Chelsea Stephens

When Citaria falls under the shadow of a demonic incursion, only a legendary hero can stop them.

For Karian Vanador, though, being resurrected comes with a price. Not only is she in a different time and place, but the world has changed in her absence, and she must face the dark demons of her past once again.

Partnered with allies who would've been her enemies in her past life, she must adapt to this new world and lead these young heroes to fulfill their potential - to stop a civil war being stoked by demonic influences. If they fail, Citaria may fall to a war that dwarfs the Apocalypse.

What lies beneath the demons' sudden interest in Citaria? And how is one woman supposed to counteract it? The gods sent their best, but can she become the hero of today as well?

Experience the start of an epic fantasy saga for the ages. It’s perfect for fans of Raymond E. Feist, R. A. Salvatore, and Bryce O’Connor.

Fantastic start!!!

The author builds a fascinating world filled with a number of non-human races (although humans exist here as well). In this first installment, Mr. Jackson lightly touches on a few cultural differences and uses them to drive the story forward. I especially liked that the main protagonist wasn't your stereotypical farm kid or offspring of anyone famous. She was a legendary warrior in her own right and unwillingly resurrected. The story has quite a bit more romance than I typically enjoy, but it's not at all gratuitous and is important to the overall arc. The narrator does a great job with the various characters and I'm happy to see that she voices the next two books. I'm definitely looking forward to Book 2!

Joe Jackson cast CrAZy strong magic!

What kind of spell work does Joe Jackson cast over his readers? Whatever he uses, it's got to be some CrAZy strong magic, as I found myself immediately entranced with Kari's story! I'm not necessarily a huge fan of quest novels, and I usually find myself easily distracted from, and bored with, a long journey/quest (why, do you think that I've never read the Hobbit? Lol), but that's not the case with this book! I loved Karian Vanador, a veteran demon hunter as she took on this new mission. I found myself needing to learn more about her, her world, her quest, her need to find her own answers. And every page seemed to only peek my curiosity and desire to find out more!
Joe Jackson totally ensorcled me with this plot driven storyline, and then... Chelsea Stephens just Freakin' nailed it with her finely nuanced performance. She had me eating right out of her hand!!!

A little slow

This book was a little confusing at the beginning. I felt like there should have been a better explanation of what Karian is and the other characters as well. These aren't typical fantasy book creatures so it was hard make a picture of them in my mind. Overall, it was a good story. I will continue to read the series.

SO GOOD!

This book was freaking fantastic fantasy. I am in love with the story and Chelsea Stephen’s voice fits Kari so well. I preordered book 2 immediately.

Main Character has wings and a tail!

This was a great story but the Main character has wings and a tail. It was a little difficult to picture in my mind what the main character looks like but no matter what they look like, they do kick Butt! Several good fight scenes and a plot that makes for an interesting story. The middle chapters are a little slow but overall a very good Audio book. The Narrator does a great job!
Without doubt worth a credit!!
