Web of Eyes

By: Rhett C. Bruno, Jaime Castle

Narrated by: Luke Daniels

Madness sits upon the throne. Rebellion rages in the South. Dark magic threatens all life. The kingdom is desperate for heroes.

When the young king's soul is stolen by a traitorous cultist desperate to resurrect the Buried Goddess, disgraced knight Torsten Unger makes it his sworn duty to get it back. He has one chance to restore his honor. But he can't do it alone. He'll need a thief.

Whitney Fierstown planned the perfect heist, one that would have made him a legend among thieves, until he got caught. Now, a knight with a questionable reputation is offering a deal: rot and die in a dank cell or join him on a dangerous expedition to put his skills to good use and earn his freedom.

Whitney and Torsten must put aside their differences and work together to battle unholy cults, demons, rebels, and worse to become the heroes their war-torn kingdom never expected...if they don't kill each other first.

Critic reviews

"Fantastic world building and masterful prose. Definitely a must read for Epic Fantasy fans." (Brian D. Anderson, best-selling author of The Godling Chronicles)

"An interesting and exciting start to a series. I'm looking forward to reading what the authors come up with next!" (Dakota Krout, author of the Divine Dungeon Series and winner of Audible Top 5 Fantasy of 2017)

"Where Web of Eyes really stood out to me was the distinct narrative voices.... The stick-in-the-mud knight and mischievous rogue partnering together is nothing new to fantasy, but I cannot think of one where it is done with better flair." (Fantasy-Faction)

Highly recommended to fantasy fans of all ages, you won't be disappointed!

Promising First Book

This book came as a great surprise to me. Some of my favorite books had great back and forth banter between the different characters or heroes. Web of Eyes provides much of that plus more. One of my favorite authors is Michael J. Sullivan, and this book has a very similar style to his when it comes to character progression and storytelling elements, which is a major plus in my book.

Luke Daniels does an excellent job of narrating the characters in this book. To be frank, I mainly picked it up because Luke is my favorite narrator when it comes to audio books. I left enjoying the book as much as I enjoyed his narration!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

I loved it!

The story was super solid from beginning to end. Luke Daniels... narrate an eye chart and I’ll listen.

This book sets up a series nicely and I can’t wait for it. Already preordered the next two.

Enthusiastic performance misses the mark for me

I was browsing Audible for a fresh fantasy novel and saw a lot of reviews praising this story and the narrator's performance, so I took a chance on this book. This narrator is so over the top with some of the accents. Many of them sound like unintelligible grunting, and then you have the main character Whitney sounding like a middle-aged Lucky the Leprechaun. In between the dialogue, I feel like I am listening to Dateline. I find myself paying too much attention to how the dialogue is being performed, and not enough attention to the actual plot.

I admit it did take me a little bit to get into the story. I'm glad I stuck with it. I know it's a good story when my kids (11, 13, and 15) are willing to listen to the story on their own. The queen's brother is creepy. The narrator really added to the story. I really liked his performance. I hope he will continue to the narration in the future books. I received this audio book for free through Audiobook Boom for my unbiased review.
