About this listen

Demon legions prepare to march across the land as Fanrac begins his grab for power. The threat grows so great it can no longer be ignored. The monarchs of the Middle Sea set aside their differences and ready their armies to make a stand.

Force of arms alone will not be enough, as countless heroes of history have discovered to their demise. Time is running out for Conrad to tame the power coursing through his blood and learn the lessons he needs to face his ultimate foe.

Discovering Fanrac’s long forgotten capital sets Conrad and his comrades, old and new, on a path to a final confrontation with an evil bearing an unexpected face....

Entertaining story with great characters and excellent narration- but felt that the end was a little rushed

John Lee has out done himself, I totally loved everything about the book, story and narration.

I especially loved lathers character, I also hope we see a Conrad and wulfric team up.


I've read/listened to ever obe of these books now and I hope they keep coming.

It started off well and certainly seemed to explain things a bit more (initially) since I was just left wondering what anyone was doing at the end of book 2 . . . but ultimately I came back to thinking book 2 was just a filler and this book was meant to bring everything together but didn't cause it was left too late and just a mess by the end- certainly very rushed.
Look at the titles in the series - The Squire/Baronet/Demon Hunter
These imply that there is a main character who is these things - but who can connect with Conrad (I still couldn't by the third book- in fact more character development was spent on the mage and Luther and Manfred - it was like Conrad was so useless by book 3 he was left out completely) - Conrad was never really a Squire, he was titled a Baronet but did not really behave like one and he just went to some ruins based on the advice of a priest - certainly not doing anything to make him a demon hunter. One step to make the series about Conrad could be to change the titles to something like Swordbearer / Boodbearer/Magicbearer? Conrad is these things in each book. Then some time was needed to really focus on Conrad and developing him in each book.
But I get the feeling the series is not even about him - in the end it is Manfred who gets the most attention. Still, even though his character development makes no sense at all (a stupid snob bully who becomes an underworld villain, a scholar, and mighty demon mage who outsmarts an all powerful demon emperor after some time in a library?). At the end of this book I felt tired and confused. like I had spent time running around in circles looking for something that did not exist and was never going to exist. A shame. Narration was good as usual but there were some confused accents and slip ups -

What a mess of a series - book okay in parts
