About this listen
He's a gambler, womanizer, opportunist, and inebriate . . . and the kingdom's only chance.
Greymond, the Scattered Kingdom, has been without a king for hundreds of years, a place ruled by squabbling barons and dukes. Occasionally, rumors arise: a king of the old blood has returned to claim his throne. These days, such claims are met with groans and eye-rolls. Pretenders abound . . . and are generally ignored.
But scheming powers are plotting, machinations that have been in the works for years, and this time . . .
Enter Merrik Niles.
A thief hired by dangerous people to steal a map, he instead keeps it for himself, hoping to follow it to some mysterious prize.
The treasure turns out to be an ancient artifact connected to Greymond's last king, and when Merrik touches it, he triggers long-dormant magic. Now, three ghosts have taken up permanent residence inside his mind: A cunning, smart-mouthed jester. A master swordsman. And a powerful wizard.
At first, Merrik believes he's going mad, but at times, these troublesome ghosts lend him their powers . . . for good or for bad.
Merrik is swept along in a scheme to put a fair-haired pretender on the throne of Greymond, making him the target of powerful enemies across the Scattered Kingdom who prefer the realm as it is.
All the while, a new army rises across the mountains . . . and they're coming.
Follow Merrik's exploits as a reluctant hero in the next epic fantasy series by Victor Gischler, the bestselling author of Ink Mage. It's perfect for fans of Mark Lawrence, Brent Weeks, and Jay Kristoff.

Adam isn't isn't even given the chance to lick his wounds after a deep betrayal before a mysterious force pulls him into into a new, fantastical world. He doesn't mind much. Penniless, luckless, and aimless, Adam wasn't particularly fond of his old world anyway. Maybe this can be the fresh start he needs. First, he'll have to deal with being attacked by shadowy monsters, imprisoned by guardsmen, and pressed into service by the resident nobility. But unlike Earth...he's not entirely powerless.

All in Voramis know the legend of the Hunter. Relentless. Immortal. Death walking. The greatest assassin who ever lived. Pay the master killer his due and the Hunter will execute any target, carry out any contract, no matter how impossible. But when the Bloody Hand crime syndicate harms the innocents under his protection, they foolishly make an enemy of the one man they can't afford to anger. The price of the Hunter's vengeance is high-paid in blood and eternal damnation. Not even an army of crooks, cutthroats, and demonic creatures of nightmare can stand in his way.

But on Earth, Alan is minding his own business after a boring double-shift at the pawn shop… until he’s assaulted by a screaming archer who turns out to be a good shot. Alan awakes in Strangey Town, a zany nightmarish jungle of ideas run by a horrid deity. Things get even stranger when a clairvoyant frog confirms Alan has an affinity for magic, and that his powers are far from ordinary. He can convene with gods, bargain for souls, and tap into every known magic the universe has to offer. It's unheard of!

A great story, made better with good writing.
As for the performance I can only say this.
I have never had a bad thing to say about John Lee.
Though after this I may have some more good things to say about him.
Looking forward to the next one.

monotonous
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
It made for a frightfully dull read. It's also not what I'm looking for in a fantasy tale.
I maybe could have been persuaded to hang around a bit longer, but the main protagonist is just such an annoying coward with nothing about him.
There's just nothing here that grabbed me.
I'll be returning this.
Not for me
