About this audiobook

Step up to the gates.

After years in the wilds, Lenk and his companions have come to the city that serves as the world's beating heart.

The great charnel house where men die surer than any wilderness. They've come to claim payment for creatures slain, blood spilled at the behest of a powerful holy man.

And Lenk has come to lay down his sword for good.

But this is no place to escape demons.

Ratings and reviews

a compelling story between five adventures who are lead by one who wants nothing more than to stop being a killer. look forward to magic battles, sword fights, witty remarks laced with sarcasm, cross species love interests, compelling back stories to dark and gritty characters, and compelling thoughts on religion as a whole. my only regret is I'm too broke for books two and three.
