About this listen

With the Slosth and Devil Incursions taken care of, Drew Wright should be settling down for some well-deserved rest. But… the world is still in shambles, survivors are fighting over limited resources, and he no longer has access to magical, gun-wielding minions.

So, rest will have to wait.

Drew needs to find a new way to control hordes of undead minions without his brain leaking out through his ears. Becoming an undead Lich is certainly an option, but that involves losing certain… assets that he’d rather hold on to, especially with him and Amber considering the option of having children. Which is nearly as daunting as the apocalypse itself.

To further complicate Drew’s life, the gods of the multiverse have finally come to Earth, making deals and offering great strength to those who bend the knee. Meanwhile, other powerful figures are emerging, ones that Drew will not be able to face alone.

When a new threat arises, one that seeks the extinction of the human race, Drew is forced to set aside his morals to focus on what really matters…

Survival.

I feel like it might be growing pains but the MC has become very immature in some of his actions and thinking which feels like a regression from the last book and the 10 years he spent growing as a person and a necromancer. Still love the story I'm just hoping it won't be a continuous issue and we can mature.

I love the story, however...

Coldfang89 delivers another darkly hilarious and action-packed book in the First Necromancer series, Book Three, and Christian J. Gilliland’s narration brings Drew Wright’s snark and struggles to life perfectly. The stakes are higher than ever as Drew weighs becoming a Lich, starting a family, and surviving gods invading Earth—all while trying not to lose his mind (or his manhood). If you like clever undead chaos with heart, this one’s a must-listen.

Another darkly hilarious and action-packed book!

Absolutely loved the story and can't wait for the next installment. Picks up where the 2nd left off and continues at a break neck pace. I really only have two complaints.

The biggest problem I had, was that this book is a LOT quieter than previous iterations. Even listening through my car with the phone turned all the way up, and the stereo 3/4 of the way to max it was still hard to hear certain characters dialogue.

I also wasn't a big fan of Drew constantly tearing himself apart over doing what's necessary (makes sense in the book). I get it and it served its purpose in the story fine, it just grates on my nerves after a while. Hopefully that part of character development is almost over.

The rest of the story was great. Seeing how some of the different cities in America faired after the decent was a treat, and the interplay between the characters was top notch as always. Hades steals the show and as always is definitely one of the best parts of the series.

I love the universe, and can't wait for the next installment just PLEASE boost the audio for The Baleful Lady, the dark elf representatives, and Horace PLEASE.

I'm loving the story, characters, and narration. I found the audio balance lacking a bit here. there were a lot of soft spoken conversions and characters who were hard to hear causing me to miss things. I request that the sound be equalized more so that the volume is now normalized.

well worth the read!

Good story and plot line. Just had to stick up for my hometown Houston. Houston is the best city in Texas (and more) and didn’t deserve the vitriol it got in the book (none of this has anything to do with the story, other than going to Houston, so no spoilers).

Also have to give props for all the references to other LitRPG series, I wonder how many I missed.

Whats with the HTown hate?!?

I like the story though I am a bit disappointed with the developments in some ways. You've turned an intelligent and driven MC into a whiny baby who throws fits that Reyna Lear won't solve all his problems despite him getting absurd OP levels of help from her. He has an absurd amount of qualms using his own undead, and is afraid of his own spells. I like the series but good lord please pull back on the mambo pamby MC angle.

Good but you made MC into a whiny baby

So I did really enjoy the book even with how slow it was at times.

My only real annoyance was the MC's constant warring morality. Not that it was happening but just that he'd constantly go over it for a chapter or two multiple times.

With the same talking points. I can see what the author is going with I think, and I'm not exactly sure I agree if the outcome. Not my story though.

Regardless its still a fun book, I just wish this situation got wrapped up in this book. I must admit I really don't care for large scale battle stuff and having this carrying over to the next one is kinda annoying. Not that I won't get the next one.

Good story with some slight annoyance

It’s consistent. The story’s good. Clif hanger though. Great over all. I love it. The character development is good and story never feels forced.

Phenomenal

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

the story flows well keeping the suspense with the growing soul suppressor and the baleful lady succeed lack of direction. I think those is great structure wise and the addition of different deities was nicely done.

questionable gods

So 14% of mana and he flattened 20% Houston. In terms of power he can't be both a danger to the world and threatened by one Undead Army. He should have immediately gone out, kite bombed the army alone and/or gone straight for the Necromancer. So I guess he essentially forgets he could end other Necromancer threat fairly easily with no loss of life on his side. Half the book is talking about his self righteous struggle with killing or enslaving souls repeatedly to the point it's annoying. Then he commits genocide to take all the D grade fighters and makes the hours of moral debate pointless. I really like the first two books but this plot hole, plus the exaggerated morality crisis is too much
