About this listen
Alek Fitz is the lead reaper for Valkyrie Collections, an agency that gathers debts for the paranormal elements of the world. Bound into modern-day slavery by a contract he cannot break and sold by parents he never knew, Alek works alongside demons, spirits, witches, and even Death himself to collect on deals made with humanity.
When Alek is forced to take a job from a local vampire hunting down a runaway thrall, he is immediately thrust into a world of blackmail and backstabbing, where the rules are nothing more than an inconvenience to ancient supernatural predators. For the first time, Alek has more to fear from his clients than from his debtors.
But Alek is the best in the business. It’ll take more than a vampire lord to keep a good reaper down.

Teado is a Changer, a shape-shifting military asset trained to win wars. His platoon has been stationed in the Bavares high plains for years, stranded. As they ration supplies and scan the airwaves for news, any news, their numbers dwindle. He's not sure how much time they have left. Desperate and starving, armed with aging, faulty equipment, the team jumps at the chance for a risky resupply mission, even if it means not all of them might come back.

This business comes with a few basic rules: don't start drinking before noon, don't get your partner killed, don't sleep with the woman who killed him. Last year I broke all of them.

Hilarious and a little sideways
Another fabulous book from McClellan! I can't get enough of these Alec Fitz stories. They are funny, a little twisted, the plots slant and slip, then smack you in the face. It is fabulous. 100% reccomend for giggling in the office and garnishing odd stares from your coworkers.

Another great listen
Really nice story, love he world building and the characters.
I was super excited to hear Luke Daniels here, but couldn't help but hear Ada in Oberon's voice... I am super sorry but this takes away any scary factor Ada has in the book, i mean its i keep hearing "You will respect my authori-tah!" every time Ada speaks. It is super funny but as i said takes away from the character.
Luke Daniels is really good, every time he reads something he gives so much more depth to the characters, but this one was a bit below his usual best.
The sorry itself is really good, world building extraordinary and the world itself is fascinating. Can't wait to get the next one and see how Alek deals with his contract or with his new plastic knee.

Great series BUT..
First of all I can tell you if I'd paid attention to the number of pages and how many hours of listening on audible I would never have bought this. I mean, $13.50 for the Kindle and the audible is way too much for 176 pages. So, I won't be continuing with this series.
Other than that I really like Alek and Maggie, his jinn ring. This was mostly about vampires and Alek's hatred of them, even though he had to work with them, before he, Maggie and his new friend Eddie, the Sphinx, killed them all.
No romance and the F-bomb was used 49 times.
As for the narration: Luke Daniels is simply wonderful! Every person has their own voice and his expressions are great.

I want the next one right now!
This book is so much fun! I loved the first Valkyrie Collections book which introduced Alek the reaper. This second book is even more fun than the first. I snickered and laughed out loud multiple times. Eddie absolutely steals the show and you can’t help but root for Alek and Olivia. I’ve only listened to these two books by Brian McClellan but now I’m considering trying more of his work. Narrator Luke Daniels is a professional who never turns in a poor performance. He nails the voices and I love the fact he throws so much emotion and action into the story rather than just reading it. This was a great break from reality and I will be waiting most impatiently for the next installment of Valkyrie Collections.

I loved the first book in the series, and this one was every bit as good or better. Alec's conflicts gave the plot more depth, and Olivia and Eddie were great additions.

Blood Tally
Valkyrie Collections, Book 2
By: Brian McClellan
Narrated by: Luke Daniels
This book was just as great as the first! Alek is half Orc, a slave, and works to retrieve supernatural objects or debts. He also has a secret, a ring that contains a djinni! The djinni can talk to him telepathically. In this book, as in the last, there are many things going on such as twists, various backstabbing, and creatures. The job he is sent on is to find a vampires runaway thrall. Of course nothing is as it seems. Lots of action, magic, a witch, gargoyle, a cat that's not a cat, vampires, and more. Humor and supernatural fun!
Luke Daniels is one of the best so the story really blasts out as bigger than life! Terrific!!! Can't wait for the next book!
