About this listen

When creatures that lurk in the dark dare to venture out into the world, lives are changed forever.

Conrad lives a quiet rural life with his parents in the Northlands. During one fated night, his world is turned on its head, as nightmares become reality. While his Northlands blood cries out for revenge, Conrad’s head tells him surviving is the best he can do.

Rescued by a motley band of mercenaries, Conrad embarks on a life he could barely have imagined. As new challenges, friends, and enemies present themselves, Conrad knows that one day he will have to face the evil that so altered his life, and when that day comes, he must be ready.

Being a big fan of the Spellmonger series, I've heard John Lee's ability to bring a story alive with brilliant narration but his work on the squire is exceptional. He takes the characters and through his narration he makes them easily recognisable and relatable, moving the story along at great pace. As this is clearly the first in hopefully a full series of books I look forward to hearing more about Conrad and his fellow characters in the book 2, I can't wait.

Another great performance by John Lee
