Kate Rossdale once held all the promise of becoming Baltimore’s greatest sorceress. But a promise is a hard thing to hold when your coven is murdered, your magic is stripped away, and the only solace left to you comes one powdered line at a time. When she’s offered the restoration of her power by a man she doesn’t know or trust, Kate sets in motion the retribution of her enemies. Soon she finds herself racing across the globe, hunting for the magic-thief who robbed her of everything she held dear, including the most dangerous magic any sorceress can possess - hope.

So disappointing!
Revisado: 08-13-18
I had heard good things about this series of books, but I was so disappointed! The story was shallow, predictable, and mediocre at best. And even though I have been a fan of James Marsters for many years, his reading of this book was terrible! It was so full of heavy breathing, heavy sighing, and without any kind of animation that he came across as incredibly bored, which made me bored very quickly into the book. I reluctantly finished it in order to be fair, but it was so breathy that it was like listening to an 8 hour obscene phone call! So sorry, but I won't be listening to any more of these books.

Three years have passed since Valducan knight Matt Hollis defeated Tiamat's cult, but her demonic children are still a threat. Now, a mysterious enemy is stealing holy weapons across South America, leaving a trail of bodies in its wake. The Valducans fear that Tiamat's followers have returned. But not all is as it seems and a new player has joined the hunt: the paladins of the Catholic Church. To stop an evil that none of them could ever imagine, the Order must set aside centuries of animosity and join forces with its long-standing enemy.

Revisado: 07-18-18
Once again, Seth Skorkowsky has woven a tale of intrigue that surprises at every turn. His ability to write a fight scene is unparalleled, fast paced and impossible to predict. Equally, his ability to develop characters is seasoned beyond his years and you just can't help but have deep feelings for each one, whether good or bad. Seriously, who doesn't love Gabby?? And I admit I actually shed tears for a beloved character who exited the series. I have enjoyed each book on its own merits and Redemptor is no exception. What a unique story in a very unique series! And RC Bray IS the voice of the Valducans, without a doubt. Can't wait for another installment!

For Ahren, it's no longer a question of someone trying to kill him; it's who will try next. Still on the run for a murder he didn't commit, Ahren adapts to life as an outlaw as his reputation of the Black Raven grows. Yet nothing comes easily. Dogged by bounty hunters, he finds himself crossing steel with pirates on the high seas and battling monsters in subterranean cities. If that wasn't enough, he's paid to assassinate an immortal and must break out of a heavily fortified prison.

Matt Hollis is the current wielder of the holy weapon, DÄMOREN. With it, he stalks and destroys demons. A secret society called the VALDUCANS has taken an interest in Matt's activities. They see him as a reckless rogue - little more than a "cowboy" corrupted by a monster - and a potential threat to their ancient order. As knights and their sentient weapons begin dying, Matt teams up with other hunters of his kind such as LUIZA, a woman with a conquistador blade; ALLAN, an Englishman with an Egyptian khopesh; MALCOLM, a voodoo priest with a sanctified machete; and TAKAIRA, a naginata-swinging Samurai.

- Valducan, Book 1
- De: Seth Skorkowsky
- Narrado por: R.C. Bray
Fantastic!
Revisado: 02-11-15
Would you listen to Damoren again? Why?
Yes, I would listen to it again because the story is very intricate, layered, and I know I will get more out of it each time.
What did you like best about this story?
It was so unique. I thought it was going to be like Supernatural, but it wasn't at all. It was a completely different dynamic.
Have you listened to any of R. C. Bray’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No, I hadn't heard him before, but I liked him very much. His characterizations were extremely well done.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I prefer to listen to audio books in my car and over several days/weeks time. It gives me a chance to go back and listen to chapters over again, if I think I missed something.
Any additional comments?
By far one of the best 'debut' novels I have heard or read in a very long time.
