About this listen

Kismet Andreas lives in fear of the shadows.

For the young tattoo artist, the shadows hold more than darkness. He is certain of his insanity because the dark holds creatures and crawling things only he can see - monsters who hunt out the weak to eat their minds and souls, leaving behind only empty husks and despair.

And if there's one thing Kismet fears more than being hunted - it's the madness left in its wake.

The shadowy Veil is Mal's home. As Pestilence, he is the youngest - and most inexperienced - of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, immortal manifestations resurrected to serve - and cull - mankind. Invisible to all but the dead and insane, the Four exist between the Veil and the mortal world, bound to their nearly eternal fate. Feared by other immortals, the Horsemen live in near solitude, but Mal longs to know more than death, war and famine.

Mal longs to be...more human. To interact with someone other than lunatics or the deceased.

When Kismet rescues Mal from a shadowy attack, Pestilence is suddenly thrust into a vicious war - where mankind is the prize, and the only one who has faith in Mal is the human the other Horsemen believe is destined to die.

Would you listen to Ink and Shadows again? Why?

Yes. It's too good not to revisit

Who was your favorite character and why?

There were several really good characters, but my favourite was Mal, the youngest and most inexperienced of the Horsemen. He was far from perfect, which made him all the more likeable

Have you listened to any of Greg Tremblay’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Greg always delivers a great performance, and this was no exception.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

With any of Rhys Ford's books, I always want to listen to the entire story in one sitting, but the length of them makes it near impossible to do this

Any additional comments?

Another top notch book from Rhys Ford with a unique and original take on the Four Hoursemen of the Apocolypse, and an outstanding performance from Greg Tremblay

Top Notch

The narrator is utterly brilliant. I love the way he really nails the different voices it’s like listening to real conversations. The story was great as well loved the twists and turns. Sad it had to end

Excellent
