Post-war Denver is ruled by the powerful Guild, an egalitarian regime intent on maintaining order at all costs. But some of the citizens remember what it was like before the fall of the old world and will stop at nothing to bring back capitalism and democracy to their city.

Meanwhile, Misha, a young farm boy with his head in the clouds, is lured in by the beautiful Kara. She holds the key to a secret that will bring Misha's world crashing down and has the potential to change his future.

A decent short story. I think it definitely has potential to be a bigger, better story or series. If the author decided to expand on this, I'd definitely give it a listen.

The world has suffered catastrophic issues. This short story encapsulates the society that remains in a short tale of society in Denver. The Guild rules the area and all must pay their portion to the guild. Some wish the guild to fall and democracy and capitalism to return. What will they do to make that happen? To what lengths will they go? Our MC finds himself an unwilling pawn in this play for power and neither his world or the one around him will be the same for it. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Would you listen to Guild again? Why?

Probably will. It is a short story but I would love to hear more detail of what happened leading up to the 'Guild' being in charge.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Guild?

Spoiler: I wont go into detail, but how the end result of the meeting with the Guild.

What about Christopher Gallegos’s performance did you like?

Easy listen.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Moved me but not in a happy way...how the lead character was taken advantage of.

Any additional comments?

I hope this turns into a full length novel and a series. A lot could be done with this story.

Good Short that would make a great series.

This was a really good story. My only issue was that I would have loved to see it be longer. It was not a bad short story, but the ending was abrupt and I wanted to know how it all turned out more long-term.
