About this listen

After hundreds of years of dying, you'd think I would've perfected it by now....

One moment I'm a heretical priest in the twelfth century, hunted, hated...the next, I'm waking up in the nearest corpse. Stuck in a cycle of instant reincarnation, popping back up like a tarnished penny.

Fast forward 800 years, and you might think I’ve learned a thing or two. Nope. All I've learned is how to die far too easily, far too often.

Now my territory in the South of France is under threat and I find myself trapped by impossible angel-made runes. If the angels have gone full red lightsaber evil, it might not only be my territory in danger, but the whole of reality itself....

I need to stop whoever is behind this, and now. After all, you can’t come back to life, if there’s nothing left to come back to.

imPerfect Magic is the first book in The imPerfect Cathar series, a darkly funny supernatural suspense following a trio of immortal heretics. If you can't wisecrack while death is on the line? Well...perhaps you're not dying right.

This book contains strong language, dark humor, and graphic violence.

the narration was done very well, but there are times where the reading was too excited and forceful. not a lot, and through most of it, the narrator did a fine job

the characters and plot are imaginative and first rate

Ok, I actually like the plot and the story and the characters and the setting. I like the way the history of the characters gets mixed into the storytelling. In fact I think I may read some of the other books but I won’t listen to them. The author /narrator is good, but the revelry in the gore is way too over the top for me. The gore doesn’t add to the story and the narration of the gore and other general suffering is a little too enthusiastic for my taste.

First person gorefest other than that it’s excellent.

I truly enjoyed the experience and appreciated how CN Rowan explained how he related the locations and events to history. I very much look forward to the journey ahead.

Great Caharacters and Story

The story is good and the characters are interesting, but for the love of Mike, hire a narrator! Most authors really shouldn't read their own book (except for Neil Gaiman, who is great). Rowan is not a good narrator and he really takes away from the story. I can imagine this if Ray Porter or Jefferson Mays did this book - would be MUCH better!

Hire a narrator!
