About this listen

There is no bigger bastard than a man who thinks he's a hero.

Thessa is a young noblewoman who has an unfortunate run-in with a werewolf on her engagement night. Lokenn is a fugitive necromancer, out to restore the reputation of his maligned art. Corlis is an innkeeper with a dying aunt and rapidly mounting debts.

In a string of bad luck and worse decisions, the three of them land neck-deep in an undercover investigation. Soon enough, they’re skulking in warehouses, dining with crime lords, and occasionally bleeding in alleys. The powers that be give them three days to find answers, but the real question is whether they can put up with each other that long.

The story had potential but was made almost entirely of tired clichés, coupled with characters with the depth of a kiddie pool. This, paired with a reader who didn't quite manage to give the story life, made for a boring listen that I had to rewind several times to catch what actually went down, as I kept zoning out. I finished it, but it felt like a chore.
