From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ilona Andrews comes a novella featuring Roman, our favorite Volhv wizard in the always intriguing, colorful, volatile Kate Daniels world.

It’s not easy serving Chernobog, the God of Destruction, Darkness and Death…especially during the holidays; and especially when you’re out of eggnog and one of your pesky, freeloading mythic creatures has eaten your last cookie.

Roman would like nothing more than to be left alone, but when a wounded boy stumbles into his yard and begs for sanctuary, Roman takes him in. Now elite mercenaries are camped out on his property, combat mages are dousing the house with fire, and strange priests are unleashing arcane magic. They thought Roman was easy pickings, just a hermit in the woods, but they chose the wrong dark priest to annoy. For while Roman might be patient, he is the Black Volhv, filled with the love of his terrible god. For his adversaries, it's a fight to the death, but for him, it's just another day in the neighborhood.

Beautiful imagery masterfully brought forth by an excellent narrator. Lots of dry humor as well as poignant moments and wonderful twists in an easy listen that only takes a few hours.

Great story!

A good short story, lots of folk lore condensed in a small book. More than the other books in the Kate Daniels series. Between the narrator and the folk lore this book was a bit on the dry side, but Roman snarky personality showed through enough to enjoy the story. I look forward to more stories from Roman, hopefully with more interaction with the kid’s sister for the next book. Best if read after Kate Daniels series, although the name pronunciation changed. Narrator was okay.

Action Packed & Potential of more stories w Roman

Story

Roman's tale is greatly enriched by this book. A compelling story that rounds out his character from the Kate Daniel's books. A great addition to the series.

A rich and intricate tale
