About this listen

From New York Times bestselling author Craig Alanson comes book three in the Convergence series, melding action-packed urban fantasy with his signature humor. Read by none other than award-winning narrator R.C. Bray.

Kaz Wolfe is trying to prevent ancient gods from regaining access to our world. The Order wants to open a portal to the Nether to gain power by serving those gods. Playing defense isn’t working. The Order always has the initiative. It’s time for direct action, to hit the Order hard.

Before it’s too late for us.

Another amazing book in the series

loved the book. it did not feel as forced as the previous book.
the characters really come out of their shells and are amazing to hear how they each tackle things head on.
As i only listen to r c bray i do really enjoy the one liners written in by the author from the other universes and characters.
5/5 well worth the listen.

Chaotic

I love the series so much. Just you think you know what's going on a curve ball so random it's a pineapple instead of a ball is thrown at you. Also more audiobooks should have bloopers

It gets a bit loose but regains control.

Overall, it was a good listen.
The story gets let off the chain for a few chapters, which had me a little synical. However, it quickly returns to the regular amusing tale.

Narration was to the usual high standard with the exception of the Kiwi accent. But most Seppos always struggle with that.

The review is a mere formality. if you're this deep in the series, you're spending another credit.

Enjoy.

Absolutely hilarious to listen to

Most nights I couldn’t wait to put this audiobook on and listen to it, and I was constantly reset my time. Marilyn Dad end up listening to it for like an hour. It was great. Absolutely love this book. I wish there was another one in the series

Another brilliant story with Kaz and Duke

I have absolutely loved this series. Duke and Mr Boots are my favourite characters. fearless and loyal to Kaz, and even Azzeem has grown on me. I googled for a 4th story but none to be found... left me wondering where the story goes from here.. R.C.Bray is a great narrator. I'm now looking on Audible for more stories read by him. such a soothing voice. great story! read it.. you won't regret it.

Entertainment at its best

Fabulously entertaining, action packed, great dialogue and humorous all adding up to a read/listen that I couldn’t put down. Next book when??
Again brilliantly narrated by the marvellous voice of RC Bray. Hugely enjoyable!
