À propos de cet audio

When you are all out of heroes, all that's left are the villains.

Black Herran was a dread demonologist, and the most ruthless general in all Essoran. She assembled the six most fearsome warriors to captain her armies: a necromancer, a vampire lord, a demigod, an orcish warleader, a pirate queen, and a twisted alchemist. Together, they brought the whole continent to its knees.... Until the day she abandoned her army, on the eve of total victory.

Forty years later, she must bring her former captains back together for one final stand, in the small town of Tarnbrooke - the last bastion against a fanatical new enemy tearing through the land, intent on finishing the job Black Herran started years before.

Seven bloodthirsty monsters. One town. Their last hope.

The narrator does an excellent job, no arguments there. The choice of the narrator though is baffling. The cast of characters are mostly female (lead characters 4/3 with the majority of the dialogue being between the female leads, supporting characters even more predominately female).

Now that’s out of the way, the characters are vibrant and fully formed which is an achievement when there’s 7 to juggle in a book that isn’t overly long. The plotline it’s self is familiar verging on pedestrian, but it never drags and what do you expect when you’re already getting all of that character building? Can’t fit an elephant in a Fiat without the aid of a wood chipper.

The ending had a nice little twist and three of the characters came close to achieving something like poignancy.

So, overall? A fun ride with characters I look forward to meeting again.

Like most people I listen to relax, kill time or be entertained. This book was 0/3 . Think comic book without the pictures . As horror , it's amusing . As a comedy it's horrible . No characters you might care about . Major frustration and returned
