Kensey Vardallian may be young and foolish, but he'll stop at nothing to sate the need for vengeance consuming him after his grandfather's murder at the hands of an oppressive villain. Not only that, but his family's ancestral treasure is stolen and lies in the hands of a greedy count.

When Kensey finds himself in the midst of a scheme with a crew of rowdy, scheming pirates, he discovers there might just be a chance for him to take down his grandfather's killer and recover the treasure all at once. As the crew of the Black Yonnix infiltrates a strictly controlled city with a daring plan, Kensey must pay out his rope to the bitter end and face down demons both inside and out - and quickly adapt to his new life as an outlaw or die trying.

Full disclosure: I worked for this publisher, am friends with the author, and have met the narrator. The interview should be on the publishers YouTube.I also edited the anthology that is set in this world, but I directly benefit nothing from writing this review. And I also seldom do bad reviews.

The a black Yonnix: A Bitter End is a fun adventure with colorful characters and packed with action and intrigue. The pace is steady, and I’m ready to read more about the adventures of the Black Yonnix. The #Pileaus world is incredibly detailed, and seeing the various iterations of the world through @outlandentertainment’s publications has been a delight. I’m looking forward to reading more from Outland and the moderator for the world, Scott Colby. The world is very vibrant and fun while still containing serious social issues and fantastical intricacies.

The voice actor, Caleb Summers, is absolutely perfect for this book. His various characters are distinguishable and add to their characterization. The main character is narrating his tale to another character, and the transition and tone is very well done. Seems well considered. I also love how Summers’ voice adds to the inexperience of the main character, but also depicts the characters’ underlying knowledge and courage. I know this sounds a bit gushy, but I’m truly impressed with the performance.

Definitely recommend. I’ll be revisiting the accompanying anthology of short stories, Pileaus: Symphony No. 1 and hope to hear more from Scott and Caleb.

Great Read, Great Listen
