About this listen

From one of the most original voices in fantasy comes a heroic tale of honor, friendship, and battlefield salvage.

It’s important to look after your crew when you’re in the battlefield salvage business. It’s stressful work at the best of times, and although your employees are unlikely to be happy it makes sense to keep them alive.

So when Saevus Corax finds himself having to capture a castle to stop his men from being killed, he has no choice but to give it a try. Needless to say, the conventional rules of siegecraft are unlikely to be followed.

I Loved the plot and the dark humor. This series is great. Can’t wait for the next one.

Great Plot and Wonderful Narration

This is a great continuation of the Corax storyline. Between the publisher's descriptions and the book titles, there aren't a lot of clues telegraphing the overall story arc for Saevus. I find this to be the best aspect of the books. Saevus is such a clever and spontaneous character that I am continually surprised and in suspense. I don't know where the story is going but am very pleased as it unfolds. I will continue into book 3 right now!

Clever Corax (BrettD review)

Mr. Onwukwe’s incredible voice brings to life all the wonderful characters and isnightful descriptions of KJ Parkers Corax trilogy. Parker has such incredible knowledge of the past, thoughts on life. This paired with his trademark engineers perspective, as he dissects compounds, mechanics, literature and warfare for some very compelling fantasy. The fun prose read by Mr.Onwukwe is the kind of magic when your favorite actor works with your favorite director. Its just fantastic.

My only note, and this has been consistent in all of KJ Parkers audio books, is that the editor does not double check their work. As there are times words are repeated as the cuts were made in the audio but not double checked.

Ben Onwukwe and KJ Parker together is incredible.
