About this listen
Revenge, they say, is a dish best served bloody and twitching.
For Kellik, nothing matters so much as defeating his father and destroying his reign over Port Gloom.
But as powerful as Kellik has become, his father will surely crush him if he doesn't stay three steps ahead. Toward that end, he'll have to employ every ounce of cunning, break every rule, wrest ever advantage, and bring the very fury of the Hanged God down upon Port Gloom.
Burning with a furious desire to crush his opponents, Kellik will return with his gorgeous rogues' gallery of companions to attack the ancient city from all sides: Using politics, assassinations, betrayals, and outright warfare, he'll stop at nothing to ensure his father's downfall.
He's willing to risk it all. But is there a price to victory even he's not willing to pay?
Warning and minor spoilers: This is an 18+ audiobook intended for mature listeners. It contains graphic sex, medieval violence, and nudity.

Story
Betrayal cuts deepest when someone you love wields the knife. For Kellik, a once-rising star of Port Gloom's guild of thieves, it also leaves him floating in the bay, bleeding out and without hope or allies. Saved by an urchin and healed by a disgraced saint, Kellick is consumed by a single desire: to find out why his guild master ordered him cut down moments after passing his initiation trial. Burning with injustice, Kellik recruits a number of gorgeous rogues to his side: fallen assassins, dark elf witches, and unnervingly polite necromancers.

Story
My name's Noah Kilmartin. I'm from Ruddock, Ohio, and I'm absolutely, 100 percent unqualified to save the universe from the slavering demonic hordes of the super evil queen Lilith. Too bad nobody asked my opinion. All I've got to do is pass five lethal trials that'll prove I'm the universe's last chance at salvation. To do so, I'll have to lean hard on those three years of Okinawan jiu-jutsu classes I took in high school, learn to wield my new magic sword, and, oh yeah - select five women to flesh out my team.

Every year, the empire administers the rite of passage into adulthood. That rite serves to identify those blessed by Aether to become magi. The new magi are shipped to the academy to learn the arts of magic.

It was supposed to be a medical marvel. Instead, it triggered the apocalypse. Half of humanity mutated into mindless zombies. Half the survivors mutated into the inhumans: various new species of people with new appearances and abilities. Some grew scales, some grew fur, some could fly, some could survive only underwater. Decades passed, and from the ashes of the old world, a new patchwork civilization rose. Humans and inhumans lived in tentative peace, and the zombies turned out to be not much of a threat once a few generations of survivors had come and gone.

Have you ever felt like there was something inside of you pushing your actions? A dormant beast, so to speak. I know it sounds crazy. But, that’s the best way I could describe how I’ve felt for a long time. I thought it was normal, some animal part of the human brain that lingered from evolution. But, this is the story of how I learned I wasn’t exactly human, and there was a world underneath our own where all the things that go bump in the night live. And, that my beast was very real indeed.

Sebastian Frost’s most recent memory was waking up in a field naked, in a body that wasn’t his own, in a world that definitely wasn’t his own, and three stunning pointy-eared women staring right at him. He also remembered hair as white as starlight, eyes like amethysts, and the name Shalia. Fortunately, it was the right name to know. Shalia was the elves’ goddess, and that made him her herald.

Story
You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

good series
I enjoyed the entire series. I had thoughts it would be predictable but never expected the ending. when fighting foes more powerful the ending is never good.
I hate final battles where our loved mc gets luckier than wagon full of leprechauns. our mc was neither loved or lucky. thanks for a great story

Absolutely Tremendous
Mike Truk has entered the auto purchase realm.
The Shadow Rogue series continues to be most entertaining and enjoyable. The third installment, King of Shadows, is a must purchase for anyone who has read the first two. Books one, two, and three are a must purchase for everyone else.
The greatness of the characters, development and dialogue continues, and that’s all anyone contemplating this purchase needs to know.

GIVE ME A BOOK 4 & 5 PLEASE !!!!!!!!!
THIS BOOK IS LIKE IF THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO AND V FOR VENDETTA HAD A LOVE CHILD THAT WAS RAISED IN A ROMAN/JAPANESE HAREM FANTASY !!! Mike Truk you are the best thing since individually wrapped cheese you left me with at least six unanswered questions but somehow you did not leave this book on a cliffhanger. The sex scenes were amazingly well-written as usual and I have to say the story was obviously phenomenal by itself but I need more...... when will the Shadow Rogue meet the Lost River, can the shadow rogue meet the last River PLEASE SAY YES, how many syndicates are going to pop up trying to be the new family, does Kelliks father have a legitimate son or even worse daughter out there, and most importantly to me anyway can Pony please get laid by a City troll LMFAO ????????? I'M SORRY THERE'S GOT TO BE AT LEAST TWO MORE BOOKS.

Wow. Just wow...
Worth the listen. Though the plot twist was well... predictable, I enjoyed it all the way through. I just kinda wish it had more closure; especially between the main cast of the story.

Mike Truk does it again!
The Shadow Rogue series is one of the best, well written stories I've read! The 3rd installment is no exception, he really knows how to draw you in and attach you to the characters. If HBO doesn't pick this story up and make it a show, shame on them. I really hope he continues with a 4th. The voice actor did a superb job as well. Will most certainly be back for more from Mike.
