Summary

John Carver has three rules: Don't drink in the daytime, don't gamble when the luck has gone, and don't talk to the dead people who come to visit.

It has been almost five years since the incident in Kabul. Since the magic stirred within him and the stories began. Fleeing the army, running from the whispers, the guilt, and the fear he was losing his mind, Carver fell into addiction, dragging himself through life one day at a time.

Desperation has pulled him back to Afghanistan, back to the heat, the dust, and the truth he worked so hard to avoid. But there are others, obsessed with power and forbidden magics, who will stop at nothing to learn the truth of his gifts. Abducted and chained, Carver must break more than his own rules if he is to harness this power and survive.

worth a listen

stumbled across this by accident and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Nice to hear a pretty decent British story without over top accent of Americanisms slipped into English grammar. hopefully a series will follow

Good story, kept my attention. Unexpected Sci fi aspect.

Did care about characters. Quite gritty at times but balanced with wry humour.
Accent took some getting used to as deep but actually was quite good, except for the Australian female which was a bit dodgy, but story was good enough to put up with it.

Brilliant story and narration

It's a great story. The army bits are well researched and not over written. The dark fantastical bits are also well written. Characters are sarcastic and very clear. You can't go wrong.

Like watching an action movie, with extras

Drawn in from the beginning, found it hard to have to stop listening! Swept along by the characters, story and action right to the satisfying end. Loved it!
