Thraxas ekes out a living as a private investigator. He lives in the poor part of town, with a barbarian for a landlord, and a female ex-gladiator to help him when the fighting gets rough. Thraxas might be too jaded to feel any desire for the beautiful Makri, with her Elvish and Orcish blood, but he appreciates her lethal combat skills. Thraxas once learned a little magic, but he's a hopeless sorcerer. On the other hand, he's brave, loyal to his clients, and he's a legend at the dining table. Thraxas can out-eat and out-drink anyone. When his investigations involve hostile sorcerers, sword-wielding thugs and murderous assassins, Thraxas knows the value of a flagon of ale and a good bowl of stew.

a sword and sorcery detective story performed absolutely brilliantly, only down side felt a bit rushed at the end almost like the author had a page limit they couldn't go past rather than the story not having places to go

I read all of these a few years ago and have loved them ever since. Audible bringing them back in this format is brilliant and I really hope they continue the series.

At last, Thraxus!
