About this listen

Hunted, confused, pissed off…this is one quarry you don’t want to back into a corner.

Steve and Ingrid have escaped the clutches of Athena, but Steve is still learning, both about his place in the world, and his capabilities...not to mention those of the creatures that surround him.

Ingrid, too, must find her way in the new reality she finds her world has become, and the pair need a plan.

Fortunately, Ingrid’s a lot brighter than Steve, and she’s had plenty of time to plan, to observe, and to build up a festering hatred of her "betters".

Steve’s going recruiting—and harvesting. Greece is in for a hell of a surprise, and for the criminal element out there? It’ll be a fatal one…

I Can dig the story for entertainment, however…

Ok, Good solid chuckles, hero you sometimes hate to love, lots of villains you love to hate, bit weird pacing, but rarely boring for too long. One blemish that persists I don’t want to blaim either writer or performance cast for, but somewhere in the post-production direction crew, someone decided, correct me if I am wrong, to make a written brit speak with a Very American accent, which I Can only assume make actually British listeners frown, wince or even cringe at times, (maybe the aussies to but I can’t speak to that myself.) However, being Danish, and cringing myself at the casts’ “bad” German accents when speaking “english” (veally? even Germans would cringe I Think) and then at one point a character pretending to be a native danish speaker “complimenting” that he is impressed with the mc’s (i.e. his own…) Well I’m not. Thank god it was so bad it was funny, and that I’m told danish is kryptonite for englishspeakers to learn, or I would’ve dropped this funny, entertaining listen at book 1. Keep at it. I appreciate the effort even if it sounds Like I don’t.

Good stuff

Chuuni. Very very chuuni. Not that it’s a bad thing but be prepared!

Jez tropes that continue in this series:

MC is from Yorkshire, it’s normally Tyneside for his MCs but they never say why aye man and they never get a narrator with a geordie accent… can’t imagine why!

MC is a bad boy who gets super OP really fast while still facing even more OP baddies who he inevitably overcomes.

MC almost immediately meets a beautiful woman and they fall madly in love and there are some graphic descriptions of lewd acts (hur hur) but it’s not grossly covered like the audio porn you find in some books.

Hijinks, daring do and jokes abound.

Narration is good.

You get the idea. I think Jez (I will call him Jez as none of his narrators ever use the same pronunciation for his surname) has a pretty fun formula that he is refining and becoming very good at. If you have enjoyed the underverse and the rise of mankind books you’ll like this.

10/10 would suck the nannites out of more lycanthropes. That sounds wrong but if you listen you’ll know what I mean.

batman returns!

An interesting take on the origin of humanity with great fight scenes, a unique system and some hilarious moments.

This story follows someone who can be considered an anti hero, he isn't good nor is he bad. He's someone trying to get by, by any means necessary.

Can't wait for book 3.

Worth the listen

Love this series, love this writer, his Main characters are always balls to the ball. "id recommend a wensleydale to go with that whine" killed me :p. The voice actor could read me porridge recipes and id listen. Overall, quality read/listen. If you liked Rise of mankind you'll love this too. Well done, keep the f@#£ed up stories coming.
