Publisher's summary

From the shadows, I shall rise, the Dark Lord of a shattered land and a broken people.

My name is Robert Grailmont. Since I was young, I felt called to serve my fellow citizens, rising through the political ranks with a senator’s seat in my near future. But when I tried to reveal the scandal of the century, I found myself framed by the very people I was trying to expose.

I thought I’d hit rock bottom, never to get back up, but then I heard a call from another world.

"Dark Lord, we need you!"

Now I find myself the king of a ruined kingdom, its people enslaved and its territory occupied by a corrupt empire. It’ll take all my wits, skills, and guile, along with the aid of my ascendant queens, to save Duskhaven and to restore what was lost.

Good story.

It's a decent story. Not in my top anything but it's solid.
Dude getting screwed over and framed by a corrupt politician and system and then transported to another world was a great start.
Now the MC is the Dark Lord of the dark god and he and the god are good and the light god and its followers are their nemesis.
The MC takes the high priestess of the dark god,that brought him to this world, as his 1st wife and she gets turned into a sexy monster woman by the dark god to start out his harem.
They are going to change this world for the better but they need to do it in secret or the light god's followers are going to crush them with hatred and overwhelming force.
The narration by Renée Nolen is good but she really needs to refer to a pronunciation guide. SOOOOOOOO many mispronounced words. And it wasn't just mispronouncing one or two words over and over. It seemed like a plethora of words that were mispronounced.
This is a good story and I'm really looking forward to book 2 of the series.

Great starting point

So, I wasn't so sure about this book at first. I thought the beginning was just meh at best. I kept going and stayed with it anyway (I've learned not to give up on books too early) and was rewarded several chapters later. The author then puts it all together to give us a plot worth listening to. I actually went back to my "meh" beginning to make sure I had the story correct. After that the book really starts to move at a nice pace, not too rushed and not to slow. Let's call it Goldilocks pacing cause it's just right.

I enjoyed the book and it's a worthy listen. Now we just have to see where book 2 takes us.

I really like this series

Although it does have some mature content it is pretty mild. The story is well written and the performance was great.
