Dark Fantasy for YA to Adult Readers

Parents- PG13-R- more appropriate for +17 readers
Language- PG13 - Moderately heavy
Violence- PG13-R - Heavy in dark action fighting scenes that are a bit gory and more visually descriptive, if squeamish maybe look elsewhere
Sexual Content- PG13- Starts in the first chapter- sweaty sexual romping described in moderate detail

I'm glad I previewed this one before my teens! I do think an older reader will enjoy the story. I did find it to be a bit confusing with the number of characters and overlapping plots, but it did keep the speed of events pushing the story forward and also made it difficult to find a good stopping point. Overall a fun epic fantasy adventure for the adult reader.

Narrator- does a great job with the voice differentiation, my main issue was that he was very slow. I found the problem fixed if listened at 1.35x speed.

Restless Dark Fantasy

This was my first experience with Ross Hughes' work, and on the whole, it was entertaining. There was a lot going on in this dark fantasy. There were many characters and many events happening at the same time. What I had trouble with was that the narrative would jump from one event to something entirely different at awkward moments. This led to confusion and dissatisfaction for me. I was invested in what was happening, and before that event came to a conclusion, the narrative would jump to something completely different, and then would return back to where the story had left off before. In spite of that, I am interested enough that I will seek out the next book in the series. The Voice of Nick's narration was awesome, and his performance enhanced this story's entertainment. It was a joy to listen to his performance and I'll look forward to more audiobooks performed by him. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review

a simple mission then situation gets complicated

Group of adventurers go in search of remains of a prophet. Times are dire and every relic important.
then things go grim. first too many killer dwarves, then the relic is not a relic but a surprise!
throw in zombie horses and a race to safety
meanwhile on an island, group of town leaders gather together to decide fate of young boy. They are in fear of a witchson. soon they will find they were right to fear.
