De: Joseph Nassise

Narrado por: Jarret Lemaster

Forget what you've been told. Monsters DO exist. And they're hungry...

Standing in their way are the men and women of the new Templar Order, who have pledged their lives to protect those who cannot defend themselves from the darkness and what lies within. Men like Cade Williams, an ex-SWAT officer turned modern Templar knight who commands the most elite monster-hunting team in existence. When a group of necromancers seek to bend an ancient, mystical artifact to their own evil ends, it will be up to Cade and the men of the Echo Team to stop them.

The Heretic is the first book in the Templar Chronicles, an internationally bestselling series that's perfect for fans of Jim Butcher, Ilona Andrews, and Patricia Briggs.

Templars reinvented

Cabe Williams (the heretic) has no time for an extensive interrogation. He asks question and expect answers. When he did not get that, he kneecapped the prisoner, in both knees. That let’s you know right off he is a badass with an attitude. He can’t be bribed or tempted. Once given an assignment, he will not stop until it is completed. What makes his unit different, they work with the supernatural. They have seen the supernatural. They know/use unconventional methods not in the Templars’ bailiwick when required.

The author spends time to redefine the Templars to fit the story. Templars’ mission is to defeat mankind from supernatural threats and enemies.

Now someone or something is waging war against the Templars. Many of their headquarters and graves have been destroyed. All the knights at the headquarters have been killed. Finding the headquarters should have been difficult, assaulting and overwhelming its defenses nearly impossible. The culprit is systematically destroying Templars’ headquarters.

• Knight Lieutenant Sean Dunken has healing properties, which he is reluctant to use. He is a by the book kinda of guy. He heads the preceptor’s security detail. He is arrogant, smug and has nothing but disdain for Cabe and Echo unit.
By the order of the preceptor, Dunken must work with Cabe to stop the destruction of the headquarters.

Yea Cabe kneecapped a guy, but like knights of old, he carries a big sword. I recommend this book especially if you like Templars or like to see the church fight the supernatural.

Non-stop action and intrigue!

I read this book quite a while ago and enjoyed the story and the premise of the series. When I got the chance to listen to it I wasn't ready for just how much I was going to enjoy the story as it was brought alive by Jarret Lemaster's excellent narration. If you enjoy stories about the Knights Templar, magic/mystic occurrences and an ancient Christian relic or two, then this story should be in your to be read or listened to list.

Good story

Interesting book full of twists and turns. There is also lots of action from the very start. I wish there was a little more character development, but it is a good story overall

Good book with good narration.

Military action verses Science fiction horror. kept my attention. Fast paced throighout the story Waiting to hear the next book.
