About this listen
*Narrated by three-time Emmy-Winning Author A. R. Witham*
If you liked Red Rising, A Deadly Education, Pitch Black, or The Great Escape, you found the right novel.
_____________________________
A fast-paced pirate adventure for the rebel in all of us, A. R. Witham weaves a story of courage, friendship, and survival inside a deadly magic school.
The Locke Institute has only three rules:
- Obey your betters.
- Gather at sunrise.
- Be inside by sundown.
But some men can't be told what to do.
Rooker Flynn is a rebellious, hot-tempered pirate who never met a rule he didn’t break. He wants his freedom, and he will stop at nothing to get it.
But the Headmistress is determined to break Rooker's spirit; she will use bounty hunters, giant poisonous spiders, and an arsenal of dark secrets to keep her pupils in line.
Good thing Rooker knows one student who is smarter than all the rest put together; a kid genius who knows strange mysteries that are not of this world.
Working together, Rooker's bravado and the kid's brains might be enough to outwit their captor and stage a daring escape...or die trying.
_____________________________
This book has sharper teeth than The Legend of Black Jack, but then again, so does Rooker Flynn. A suspenseful thriller, this is a quick listen that you will not be able to pause.

The world has stopped turning. Burned by a blazing sun. Thrust into eternal winter. Life survives only in the Sunset Forest. For untold millennia, mankind lived subservient to the dryads, forced into worship of the Earth-Mother, Astea. Then one man ventured into the Scorched Desert and returned with the secret of fire. His rebellion brought the dryad empire to ash. In its place, he founded the Kingdom of Heartsong.

Welcome Back to Keymark!
Stop reading this. Go get the audiobook! You won’t be disappointed.
This is a really difficult review for me to write because I LOVED the audiobook & feel I won’t do it justice but also want to gush about it! What can I say, I’m conflicted?
Great spin off series! You should listen to The Legend of Black Jack first but you really don’t need to in order to enjoy this story. Still, I loved that book too!
The Crimes of Rooker Flynn is a bit his origin story and the first installment in the Locke Institute trilogy (book 2 is due JAN 25). I’m not a huge fan of long boring reviews that spotlight every inch of the book because I want to Listen And Find Out for myself. So I hope you didn’t come here for a book report.
I’ll mention it again later but I don’t want to ruin the story for you.
I suggest that you read the publisher’s summary (it’ll give you a taste of what’s to come) and GET ON WITH IT!
This is a fantastic story. It’s definitely darker (thank you Mr. Witham) than The Legend of Black Jack, but not too scary. I’m arachnophobic but loved the monsters in the book. The bad guys are baaad & I love to hate the bad guys! Oh their evilness is crystal clear!
There were so many great characters in The Legend of Black Jack!! If YKYK. Rooker Flynn & of course Jack Swift were my favorites so I was excited to see them together again. They are wonderful together!
As for the scary, darker moments. I read The Shining by Stephen King when I was 14 and wouldn’t suggest this one to anyone too much younger. Reason? Possible nightmares cuz there are a couple trigger warnings. I mentioned arachnophobia for a reason. lol
The author narrates the book & is the perfect voice for Jack & Rooker & a baddie! (another lol)
Why are you still reading this? I’m not going to share or give anything away! GO LAFO!
5+ stars! Fun! Very fun! Compulsive! Unique! Fast paced! Dark humor! Morally gray! More great characters!! Keymark is developing into an even richer wonderland of spectacular horror & had a depth, a richness that sucks you in for a memorable whirlwind tour.
Join me in Keymark! You won’t regret it.
I can’t wait to return to Keymark in the sequel, The Trial of Rooker Flynn.
PS - Chapter 2, page 47, last sentence … and it begins … NOOOO!!!! 🕷️🕸️
