About this listen

Wrongly Convicted. Sentenced To Life. His Only Hope Lies In Service.

Aaron Havenes is serving hard labor in the colonies for a crime he didn’t commit. The last thing he wants to do is defend the Empire that chained him as a child. But when Aaron’s only friends are lured into the army with empty promises, Aaron vows to protect them at any cost, even if that means fighting monsters on behalf of a power that he loathes.

To glory-seeking Colonel Riley, convicted criminals aren’t worth the air they breathe: perfect cannon fodder. Aaron and his friends are being sent out to die in place of those "too valuable" to lose.

But Aaron is set to defy all expectations. Death would be simpler, because victory means becoming a pawn for politicians and generals as they seek to further their own ambitions.

And the creatures in the mountains have plans of their own…

Enjoy this one a lot!

This was my first time reading and listening to Allen Ivers. This was a good listen. Smooth story, bad guy easy to hate but understandable. Good dialogue between characters. Good tempo. Worth the listen!

A great book and narration.

Allen Ivers writes a good story, the main character is awesome, and the story is action packed and the plot moved at a good pace. Audio Version: I don't typically enjoy stories narrated by the authors but Allen Ivers does a good job with his characters, emotions, and overall narration.

A haunting journey for freedom

Received as an audio review copy from Story Origin, this is an honest review. This beautifully haunting and poignant adventure is brimming with snarky that leaving you laughing and serious dialogue that brings you back to the darker narrative brought to life wondrously by the author himself, Allen Ivers. The characters Aaron Havenes and Colonel Riley are two individuals that provide unique viewpoints from their positions of the story: Aaron a wrongly convicted criminal trying to survive the insane sentence handed down while Riley's sour view of people like Aaron enables him to use those individuals like mindless puppets. This adds a deep thought provoking story thread to an already rocketing adventure that's worth every moment of listening. Highly recommended.
