About this listen

Part lawman, part tracker, and part magician, the Wardens are monster-hunters - tasked with protecting the people from the various, nightmarish creatures that have invaded the world of men.

For most of his life, 16-year-old Errol Magnus categorically rejected the idea of being a Warden. Growing up right next to the Badlands, he encountered enough bloodthirsty monsters in the ordinary course of events; he’d never seen much sense in assuming a post that required you to actively seek them out.

Recently, however, while competently and capably serving as Warden on behalf of his missing brother Tom, Errol’s had a change of heart. Now, for reasons of his own, he desperately wants the position. Unfortunately, being officially appointed Warden not only requires that Errol’s skills be tested by his peers, but that he also make a perilous journey to the city of Apolos in order to be examined by the high Warden himself.

Traveling with a group of colleagues, Errol thinks all danger is behind them once they reach the safety of the city. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Something has followed them out of the Badlands, and - one by one - his traveling companions are being viciously slain by something...inhuman. It’s up to Errol to find the creature and bring its killing spree to a halt, before he himself winds up the next victim.

This book continues the Warden series. It starts as most of the books with Errol going out to take care of a routine issue. It gets more involved when he is summoned to the Warden headquarters for his evaluation. Events then proceed and he is to learn that the world is not as he had imagined it to be. He becomes involved in tracking down a monster who has killed members of his traveling team and discovers that they also have emotions beyond what he has ever imagined. A very good book that kept my attention from start to finish. Except for the length it could be a one sitting listen. The narrator did a fantastic job as he always does.I very much hope the next book will also appear in audio.

In this third book in the series, the headline monster is probably less important than the world-building that vastly expands the reader's knowledge of the wider society of wardens including a number of new characters that seem likely to return in future books and the introduction of a new arc that indicates that there is something special about Errol, who has also now realised that he likes being a warden and living where he does too.

The narrator's performance is a good one that nicely enhances the overall book with a clear and distinctive tone that helps to bring the characters to life even more.

Overall, another enjoyable book in this series that also sets things up nicely for future books too.

I've read Books 1-3 of the Warden series and this is the best of the bunch. It has a cohesive plot and gives everybody a shot at redemption; and whilst it leaves the way open for a fourth book that really is unnecessary.

The narrator does a good job. Recommended

Best of the three Warden Books
