About this listen

The conclusion of the Amazon and Audible best-selling Halfhero series.

When The Deterrent comes out of hiding and kidnaps the titans, it triggers the biggest manhunt in history. On one side, the military might of the United States and Air Commodore Fiona Bardock, Britain’s most talented investigator. On the other, three halfheroes, one human and a puddle of slime.

Daniel Harbin hopes to get through this alive and track down the children he never knew existed. What no one realises is they’re about to confront the greatest danger of all.

Very satisfying feel good ending. I felt mixed about the middle books of this series but this final book brings everything together brilliantly

Very satisfying feel good ending

A little predictable but still a tidy conclusion to the series.

I really enjoyed all three books and you will too. the only thing I can't make sense of is the inexplicable timing of the old man's decision to leave his cave and meddle with things

Whatever the answer though happy listening

It was alright

Definitely my favourite of the trilogy. Each book has improved on the last. I love the humour dotted throughout and the characters while 'super' were still relatable

A fantastic ending to the series.
