Publisher's summary

Thrilling sword and sorcery adventure in the golden age tradition!

One night in Merth, that most westerly city tottering on the edge of the Succulent Sea, a desperate young poet swordsman and an ingenuous young tribal warrior meet by chance or fate or luck. Their unlikely friendship sets them on a course of adventures across the wild mysterious continent of Plemora, where they face monsters, magicians, maledictions, and things nameless and far stranger.

A novel-length collection of heroic fantasy sword and sorcery adventures in the tradition of the classic Golden Age (Jack Vance's Dying Earth series, Fritz Leiber's Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, Michael Moorcock's Elric and Eternal Champions Series, Robert E. Howard’s Conan, C.L. Moore’s Jirel of Joiry, and the stories of H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Poul Anderson, Roger Zelazny, and Henry Kuttner).

Written by Robert Zoltan.

Critic reviews

“Dareon & Blue are worthy successors to Leiber's Fafhrd & the Gray Mouser.” (Bob A. Faust, author of Scrappers and Brink of Battle War-Games)

"...fans of classic pulp sword & sorcery adventures who are looking for new stories in the genre would be hard-pressed to find better reading." (Cirsova Magazine)

“Colorful and Exciting. The more involved stories show an imaginative force and a real belief in the core of the characters' motivations that compel the reader's interest. Dareon and Blue are interesting and involving people to spend time with. There is plenty of room for additional intriguing adventures for this pair of characters, and I for one will be happy to see where their lives lead them.” (Rich Horton, editor of The Year’s Best Science Fiction & Fantasy)

Why are no female voice actors credited?

My only grievance with this audiobook production is that, at the time of this review, no female voice actors are credited in the Audible description or in the audio itself. I hope this gets corrected. The female voice actor(s?) did a great job.
As for everything else, I give this book a solid 4 stars. It is good sword & sorcery in the tradition of Robert E. Howard and even a touch of Michael Moorcock. Mr. Zoltan is a skilled writer and narrator, and hope he continues to deliver quality audiobooks such as this.
