good story and narration!

I didn’t expect to enjoy this book since the MC, Sylver, is a necromancer. But to my surprise, he turned out to be a personable (young?) man—at least depending on your perspective. I absolutely loved his storyline. He fully embraces who he is and stays true to his word, going above and beyond to protect those he cares about without smothering them.

Though I’ve only listened to Garrett Michael Brown a few times, his voice work was exceptional.

Awful MC!!!

To start with i really did try to like this series, the narrator is great and the flow of the story is decent but thats as far as my praise can go sadly. Now onto the reason for the low review is because the MC sylva is so awful that he pulls down the story completly, He is sold as a kind of antihero who wants to keep his friends and family safe after his last one was killed off by a so far unknown traitor which is a great theme and setting to kick off alot of amazinf stories which by the 3rd book this really wasnt.

Instead we have a hero who is only a hero if he lived in a twisted reality where morals are decided by who is most powerful. Often he solves his situations by just out and out torturing, murdering or in some cases just being a complete monster to whoever he wants because you know he can. One moment the mc is giving a huge explination of why somthing is evil and wrong the next he is doing the thing he killed others for and its alright because its him?

Overall an ok story let down by awful moral choices leaving you wondering who was the good guy.

87 hours of poorly read and smug-overload

Yo, Garrett, swallow a chill pill man. You sound like a pretentious first year college student over-acting the last drop of life out of Shakespeare in the park 3 weeks after starting his English lit class.

Anyway, on to the story. Do you want to sit through 87 hours of poorly read dialogue about how amazing I, the MC am? How laughably overpowered I am? How this "system" is so silly because I'm already a super powered necromancer? Did I mention I am fantastic?

The world certainly thinks I'm fantastic, behold as all I meet fawn over me as if they had NO lives, wills or thoughts of their own save "Oh my god Sylver you're so amazing please, I met you five minutes ago but you're already the most important thing in my life because I'm a shallow paper-cut-out of a character with no true motivations, life or background - I literally exist only to pander to your oh so humble ego"

The author must be utterly insufferable in real life.
