Thoroughly Enjoyed
Revisado: 07-29-23
I listen to audiobooks mostly on my commute to and from work. I'm an old man and father, but I enjoy children's literature because I deal with enough "real life" adult nonsense at work that I like wholesome stories on occasion. Anyway, to the point. This story makes me smile for a little while. I'm a well read old guy with many years of military and law enforcement, And this made me feel good. Just like JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis and JK Rowling made me smile when reading their work. And the author is narrating his own work to boot. Amazing performance. I look forward to delving into the next book.

Historia
In 1980, a freshman congressman was gunned down in Rhode Island, sending shockwaves through Washington that are still reverberating over four decades later. Now, with the world on the brink of war and a weakened United States facing rampant inflation, political division, and shocking assassinations, a secret cabal of global elites is ready to assume control. And with the world’s most dangerous man locked in solitary confinement, the conspirators believe the final obstacle to complete domination has been eliminated. They’re wrong.

Thought Provoking
Revisado: 06-25-23
Where is the line between fiction and nonfiction? The plot is plausible and frighteningly accurate to current events. It is painfully obvious that the ruling political class (of either party) does NOT have our best interests in mind.

Historia
Phil Hastings was a lucky man - he had money, a growing reputation as a screenwriter, a happy, loving family with three kids, and he'd just moved into the house of his dreams in rural of magic - and about to be altered irrevocably by a magic more real than any he dared imagine. For with the Magic came the Bad Thing, and the Faerie, and then the Fool...and the resurrection of a primordial war with a forgotten People - a war that not only the Hastings but the whole human race could lose.

Rich with lore
Revisado: 02-28-23
I read this the first time in High School, and read it again when I got out of the Army in the 90s... Now I've revisited it as an audiobook some 30 years later. Still as good as I remembered. Next to various Tolkien books, this novel has stuck with me the most over the years and recommend it to everyone interested in mythology. I highly recommend this still. I'm guessing, but I wouldn't be surprised if Brandon Mull was influenced by this work for his Fablehaven series. This piece is definitely for adults however.
The performance was excellent for the audiobook.

Historia
Robert "Bubba" Brabham never wanted to hunt monsters. He mostly wanted to drink beer, hunt deer, and chase women, like every other giant redneck in the world. But life interfered, and Bubba found himself holster-deep in the family business: monster hunting. Now he's the Southeastern Regional Hunter for the Holy Roman Catholic Church...Bubba has to save the world from the things that go bump in the night! Just as soon as he's done with his beer. And maybe after one more lap dance.

Juvenile? Absolutely! Racist & Intolerant? NO!
Revisado: 08-12-22
I've read numerous reviews and believe a huge disservice has been done to this series of short stories arranged into a TV series style of anthology. One bonehead even claims rednecks wouldn't sport a ponytail. Well I've seen plenty of rednecks and bikers who wear ponytails, as well as mullets...
Another jackass, with an over inflated sense of self worth, claimed this is racist and intolerate. Well, the hero's best friend and partner is a gay black man who the hero helped against bullies when they were kids. Not really the actions of a racist and intolerant protagonist.
Is this the best writing I've ever digested? Absolutely not! But it wasn't trying to be. It is funny though, in a very juvenile way albeit. It's not quite the caliber of Larry Correia's MHI books, but it is entertaining.
I like Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5, and Space Above and Beyond and I'm sure there are alot of Science Fiction fans out there that are the same way. So if you like the Supernatural, X-Files, Dresden and Monster Hunter International series then you might enjoy this... It's like MHI meets the TV show Mountain Monsters....
As far as the repetition goes, imagine this anthology of short stories appearing in serial fashion in a magazine. That might explain the repetitive self description of being 6 foot 5 and 350 lbs, drinking Bud out of a pitcher at a titty bar.
Carry On!

Historia
A woman boards a plane in the African country of Burkina Faso having just completed a targeted assassination for the state of Israel. Two minutes later, her plane is blown out of the sky. Over 6,000 miles away, former Navy SEAL James Reece watches the names and pictures of the victims on cable news. One face triggers a distant memory of a Mossad operative attached to the CIA years earlier in Iraq—a woman with ties to the intelligence services of two nations…a woman Reece thought he would never see again.

I like this right wing revenge fantasy stuff. Hard to pause the audiobook version, and can't wait to push play when I've had to pause it. Excellent fiction

I loved this story as well. It took a little while to get used to Mr Lee's narration, since Mr Vance has narrated all the other books, but he still gave an admirable performance.

As the lines between enemy and ally blur, Guillot dal Villerauvais is drawn farther into the life and service he had left far behind. Solène attempts to come to terms with the great magical talent she fears is as much a curse as a blessing, while the Prince Bishop’s quest for power twists and turns, and takes on a life of its own.

Yet again, I find myself anxious to continue another series by Duncan M. Hamilton. The narrator expertly tells this work. Mr. Vance is truly among the best voice actors/narrators in the business. I thoroughly enjoy these books and recommend them highly.

I've read many reviews complaining about the ending of this story. I find it was fulfilling. Not all endings are happy ones. The blood debt was fulfilled though, and they were reunited.
