1870. A time known as The Great Killing. The vampire clans arose and slaughtered humanity with unprecedented carnage in the northern parts of the world. Millions perished; millions were turned into herd animals. The great industrialized civilizations of the world were left in ruin. A remnant fled south to the safety of the ever present heat which was intolerable to vampires. There, blending with the local peoples, they rebuilt their societies founded on human ingenuity, steam and iron.

Set in a postapocalyptic world, this tale of courage, sacrifice, and heroism takes place against the backdrop of an age of steam and rational humanism, where the social elite have rejected religion and spiritualism as nothing more than quaint superstition. Brutal Vampire Clans rule half the world, keeping human herds for food, and Princess Adele, heir to the throne of Equatoria, is faced with grim choices. War is imminent and her marriage to the odious Senator Clark of America will cement an alliance uniting the Equatorian Empire and the American Republic.

As Lord Minalan the Spellmonger began his honeymoon on a decadent river barge with his very pregnant bride, he had no idea that the occasion would have anything more complicated than eating, drinking, and making love on the agenda. But a frantic message from one of the Tree Folk indicating he and Alya may be in danger compels him to skip the lazy repose and travel to a far away ruin to speak with a possibly crazy Alka Alon mage - Lilastien, the Sorceress of Sartha Wood.

Johannes Cabal, a brilliant scientist and notorious snob, is single-mindedly obsessed in heart and soul with raising the dead. Well, perhaps not soul.... He hastily sold his years ago in order to learn the laws of necromancy. But now, tormented by a dark secret, he travels to the fiery pits of Hell to retrieve it. Satan, who is incredibly bored these days, proposes a little wager: Johannes has one year to persuade 100 people to sign over their souls, or he will be damned forever.

Already plagued with sinister night terrors that could qualify him as a card-carrying psychopathic insomniac, Nate can barely even manage to put his pants on in the morning, let alone pick teams for the Apocalypse.

The youngest daughter of the Master of the Wood lived in ramshackle Westwood Hall, in the independently minded Westwood estate of Sevendor. Her determination to capture a baby falcon and train it wasn’t hampered by the fact that Dara had never climbed a mountain, had never been trained in falconry, or even remotely had permission from her father to do it.

Publisher's Summary
A thrilling new Victorian-era urban fantasy for fans of Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid Chronicles, the Showtime series Penny Dreadful, and the Sherlock Holmes movies featuring Robert Downey, Jr.
With a flood of dark magic about to engulf Victorian London, can a handful of heroes vanquish a legion of the undead?
When monster-hunter Malcolm MacFarlane comes across the gruesome aftermath of a ritual murder in a London church, he enlists the help of magician-scribe Simon Archer and alchemist extraordinaire Kate Anstruther. Studying the macabre scene, they struggle to understand obscure clues in the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics carved into the victim's heart - as well as bizarre mystical allusions to the romantic poetry of William Blake. One thing is clear: Some very potent black magic is at work.
But this human sacrifice is only the first in a series of ritualized slayings. Desperate to save lives while there is still time, Simon, Kate, and Malcolm - along with gadget geek Penny Carter and Charlotte, an adolescent werewolf - track down a necromancer who is reanimating the deceased. As the team battles an unrelenting army of undead, a powerful Egyptian mummy, and monstrous serpentine demons, the necromancer proves an elusive quarry. And when the true purpose of the ritual is revealed, the gifted allies must confront a destructive force that is positively apocalyptic.

Unbelievably Thrilling Story
I loved this book! Clay Griffith and Susan Griffith have woven adventure, excitement with a touch of romance to create a can't-put-down story. Nicholas Guy Smith has done a superb job of bringing all the characters to life and making you feel like you are right there and part of the group. I highly recommend this book!

Still Good!!!!
Simon and the gang are back! And I love it. Paranormal creatures, magic, steampunk, and a Victorian romance. Friends, enemies, and families tires are so intertwine you don't know where one ends and the next begins. One thing is sure Simon no longer has the time to be a play boy, Malcolm has to deal with him werewolf bigotry and the Anstruther sisters have a come to Jesus moment.
The legacy of Pendragon is still rocking the world and the gang has to stanch the bleed. Yet there is so much richness in magic other than it being black and white. What the gang finds is intent defines what the magic really is.
I am a die-heart King Arthur fan, so I enjoy the Pendragon material. Pendragon and Merlin have so much mystery between them. The Pendragon in this series is a little of the Merlin magic and the nobleness of Authur. Like the knights of the round table, the Pendragon accolades are driven mad vying for the affections of the great man. Simon and Kate must clear the mystery and recreate the society.

agreat end to the series
If you could sum up The Undying Legion: Crown & Key in three words, what would they be?
stylish, modern, punkish
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Undying Legion: Crown & Key?
what a stupid question, there are no 'moments' this is a rollicking story that is not a series of moments
What aspect of Nicholas Guy Smith’s performance would you have changed?
too slow
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
never do that
Any additional comments?
a great listen, and as the end of the series so far?
