About this listen

In the epic third installment of this urban fantasy series, an ambitious and powerful young man incites a revolution at the end of the world.

If Truth Medici has learned anything, it’s that the country isn’t neatly divided into safe and dangerous zones. Everywhere is a battlefield and a hunting ground. Everyone is both predator and prey, slumrats on the run from bigger rats. Truth is finally one of the bigger rats, so elite that ordinary people can’t even see him. But though he may be a walking ghost, he’ll be acknowledged one way or another.

Truth holds the power to slay the very oppressors who made him what he is. And he’s resolved to wield this power toward a righteous end. His next move: smash the System and fashion himself as a mastermind, pulling the strings of rebellion. With the help of old friends and new, it’s time for him to level up and prepare to do anything in the name of freedom.

But uprisings, explosive anarchy, devastating chaos, and collateral damage are just the beginning. Because the war isn’t only being waged on the ground. The rulers of Heaven and Hell are in on it too, their ancient animosity more nuanced than anyone dares believe. And standing and fighting between them is Truth . . .

The third volume of the hit cyberpunk fantasy series—with more than one million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Just as 1 and 2 has different tones, this one manages to also stand out with a unique flavor. A more mature and capable Truth has emerged, not overpowered in all aspects but often a high level player in a newbie area. It’s terrifying, in both direct gameplerrr I mean story, and the moral and social implications of being so much more high level than Truth’s surroundings.

I’m loving it, and there are some truly spectacular set pieces that are simply a joy to imagine.

The narrator is also first class, breathing great life to the characters and their world.

Another change, but still exploring philosophy via violence
