About this listen

Nathaniel Moore is a myth. He's a witch too powerful to exist and too clever to be caught. He's kept himself young for 250 years with life-stealing dark magic and left a long trail of bodies in his wake. But no matter how many chasers the magistrate sent after him, not one of them was the challenge he wanted.

Elton Willis, a model chaser for the magistrate, expected the ultimate villain when he cracked the cold case and tracked Moore to a cheap apartment in Yuma. What he got was an infuriatingly carefree man who smokes like a chimney, laughs at puns, and treats his young apprentice like a daughter. It's an uncomfortable discovery for someone determined to bring the man to the magistrate's gallows.

Further complicating the issue, Elton has accidentally let loose one of Nathan's old enemies - a lich with a vengeful attitude and a thirst for human souls. Now, the chaser is forced to choose between taking Nathan in, which would leave the murderous monster to roam free, or teaming up with the object of his obsession to take the lich down.

The obvious answer, of course, is also the option that's the biggest pain in Elton's ass.

This was ok. I think the experience would have been stronger with a different narrator. Absolutely no disrespect to Mr Howard, but he was more of a reader than a performer. He has a pleasant, melodious voice but was a bit short on characterisation, which meant the book lacked a bit of punch.
The story was fine, a bit sketchy in parts and sometimes a bit lacklustre, but I'll buy the next one if the synopsis reads ok.
However, my view is that it always worth supporting authors new to audible. The more varied and rich the catalogue the better. After all both author and characters sometimes take a little time to find their voice.
