Acerca de esta escucha
Civil War tore across the Union Empire, leaving countless dead in its wake.
It was a war started by one man once beloved by the Empire. His betrayal still lingers in the memory of those who lived through it.
Decades later, his son, Felix Drake, is a Warden tasked with both protecting the ruling members of the Union Empire and its Council and bringing those powerful and influential people to justice should they break the law.
Drake protects the very Empire his father sought to destroy.
When two members of a Council family are murdered, Drake and his team investigate, only to uncover corruption, resentment, and yet more death.
As the case deepens, Drake is forced back into a life he'd left long ago, bringing with it the same disdain and anger from the very people he's sworn to protect.
However, he's no longer a helpless child, and the people who try to intimidate him now are about to discover that Drake is so very much his father's son.

Historia
Lucas Rurik used to be part of the Raven Guild. That is, until someone murdered all of its members—except for him. That was seven years ago. Now, Lucas keeps to himself, avoiding getting too close to anyone lest they become targets themselves. But when one of his oldest friends at the Rift-Crime Unit calls upon him for help with a case that’s already taken down people who mean a lot to him, Lucas can’t resist stepping back into the fray. Something is killing FBI and RCU agents alike—something unlike anything Lucas has ever seen before, on Earth or in the Rift.

At first, it sounds simple. He’ll slip through the timestreams, do a little sightseeing, and go home. Heck, it might even be fun to visit a world where actual superheroes exist. But for creation’s unluckiest druid, nothing is ever easy. When things go horribly wrong, Colin finds that his magic is almost completely on the fritz.

A human being without protection in the Zone is dead in minutes. Twenty years ago, Marks went into the rainforest with a group of researchers led by Doctor Elaine Fell, to study the extraordinary climate and see if it could be used in agriculture. The only thing she learned was that the Zone was no place for people. There were deaths, and the program was cut short. Now, they're sending her back in.

Trapped at the top, Lucas and the other residents have just one year to reach the ground floor and escape before the tower self-destructs. That’s his first problem.

Historia
Lucas was shocked when he awoke to find the world had ended. An alien AI called the System had taken over Earth and transformed his apartment building into a 100-floor dungeon tower of traps, monsters, and loot. Trapped at the top, Lucas and the other residents have just one year to reach the ground floor and escape before the tower self-destructs. That’s his first problem. The second is he slept through the System’s welcome orientation, so a Class was picked for him. Lucas is now a Blood Reaver. A brutal Class based on speed, ferocity, and striking from the shadows.

Have you ever come across those stories with heroes who knew just how to get things done? The ones who were masters in five different martial arts, and knew ten ways to skin a bear after killing it with their bare hands? Yeah, that wasn’t me. Hell, I had trouble asking a girl out on a date. But someone in clerical must have made an error. Because I got ripped from an airplane on my way home after my last day in the Coast Guard. I mean, come on, I wasn’t even in one of the hardcore branches of the military or anything!

An interesting start

This book, however, is not a book I should have listened to. It required a lot of concentration and I got lost in the people and places. I am still not quite sure who everyone was, but I do know I loved Felix Drake. I'm glad I listened to it, as I have been dying to read it for a while. I haven't a scooby of everything that was going on, but I have to say I still really enjoyed it. Bokk was a great character, but it was Felix who stole these how for me. I am going to re-read this one definitely before book 2 comes out as this is such an exciting series. I know it sounds like I am contradicting myself as I don't 100% know the details but I got the gist of what was going on, and I enjoyed it. So much to unpack. That's why I need to give it all my attention next time because I can just tell it's going to be a fav of mine.
I love McHugh's writing! He won me over when I read Those Who Dwell in Darkness and I loved the writing in this. It's the details, there is much detail, and I fear I lost that by listening. The combination of McHugh and Reynolds is spectacular, it's me who was selfish and didn't concentrate.
I loved the banter within the team and the new addition at the end, I can see that is going to be a fun partnership. The world-building is just magic, and I could see the chase for the sniper when we had the panic with Hideo. I could picture the room and everything going on so perfectly, even all the technology that was introduced - some sound fun!!
I am definitely looking forward to the next book - but I think I will do it the justice it deserves and read it!
Fantastic performance!

Excellent start of a new series

so, overall I don't think this book is bad just, ok, but it has a LOT of potential it doesn't live up too.
for starters, positives,
I really like the idea of this world, like the whole warden-council-king of stars dynamic is awesome. the tech was cool, and while I wasn't a fan of the whole kinda-magic system I didn't hate it by the end (it just felt shoehorned in)
I really liked Jake and Bok. I thought they were the stars of the show, I liked Jake's backstory of having a dad who was a major resistance general neat. (although that was a tad convoluted)
if you're noticing a lot of "but"s to the positives it's because nothing really sticks 100% however,
the negatives really amount to, Too many characters who are useless to the plot, don't do anything and are really just cool ideas occasionally.
honestly, out of every POV character only Jake does anything of note.(Bok too but he only has a handful of chapters)
now I get that it's a space opera so an enable of characters is needed but I think the only side character that was important was "Rosie" the hacker warden. the rest just got told to go here do that or split up and do something else.
if you get this on sale or a 2 for 1 credit like I did, worth a shot for a background listen, I wouldn't pay a full credit or price for it though. which is a shame. it has its moments.
Many Interesting Ideas with Too many characters!

I really liked Bok (spelling?), the dedicated and deadly synth who really wanted to decorate the house because he was bored. He was awesome! I wanted Councilor Gusen to die pretty quickly after meeting him, and Sabas was a glaringly blatant caricature of evil who enjoyed hurting people.
Reynolds was great as usual, though there were some times when it felt like he wasn't really putting his best into the reading. He's a fantastic narrator, so it felt off when he'd read lines such as: ""Throat was slit," Etomas said sadly." But the line may have been, "I like cheese," Fred said blandly." for all the emotion in his voice.
I'm looking forward to continuing this series!

I was already a huge fan of Mr. McHugh's, so I didn't really pay too much attention to the summary when I hit the "Buy" button. Once I actually started the book, I had to stop and go find the plot summary because it wasn't taking place in any of the already formed worlds of his existing series. Imagine my surprise when I realized that this was a brand new series - a whole new world - and we were going into space!
We are introduced to Felix Drake, but we aren't really given too much information about him in the beginning. We are told that he is a Warden and that the Warden's are a fairly important enforcement group who investigate crimes affecting the Royal Family or the ruling members of the Union Empire. We begin to learn about the Union Empire- a collection of THOUSANDS of planets under one umbrella with The King of Stars the ruling authority. The setting is very futuristic, with space travel, flying vehicles, starships -the whole works.
And with so many different planets, there are different species of people. There are humans - of which Felix Drake falls under, but we get to see a variety of species - Sarcian, Oreaf, Dreic, etc. Then, to make everything even more interesting, there are certain Humans who have some type of ability to affect aether - another word for having some type of magic. These Humans are called Sages.
So, we begin to learn things slowly. All we know in the beginning is that Felix Drake is a Warden Team Leader, and he is tasked with investigating a murder. The murder however, is important because 2 of the 3 victims are children of Counselor's (think Senators) and Drake surprises everyone when he lets them know that he knew these 2 victims. That he actually grew up with them before leaving the planet at 16 years of age. Granted, it has been decades, but this opens the door to all of us starting to find out who Felix Drake really is. Top that off with a very interesting storyline and we are off to the races.
I actually really enjoyed this book. Yes, it is the first book so we did have to deal with the building of the world, but it is done nicely. There is also a great group of secondary characters - both on Felix's Warden Team, and there are also bad guys galore. There is an overarching storyline that begins to come together later in the timeline, but we get to follow along as Felix tries to figure out what the heck is going on and who is trying to kill the members of the Royal Family.
This book ties up some of the plot lines, but it still leaves several issues wide open. We've learned WHO the bad guy/gal is, but that person is still out there somewhere. We haven't learned the WHY yet, so there are still many unanswered questions that will hopefully be answered in the next book.
Honestly, I really liked Felix as a MMC, but my favorite character is Bokk - he's a Synth with an actual personality. What's a Synth you ask? Well, you need to read the book to find out. I especially LOVED getting chapters in Bokk's POV. That was too cool.
So, now I'm invested in another open series from Mr. McHugh and happy for it. Add to this the fact that it is narrated by Tim Gerard Reynolds and I'm completely on board.
Can't wait for his next book - in which ever series he puts out.
Great start to this new series!
