About this listen

Two brothers face the end of all they know as the Earth is absorbed into something called War World. On Earth, they were up-and-coming duo competitors in ACS (Armored Combat Sports), and it is with those skills they just might survive.

A LitRPG Grimdark novel.

My flesh knew what to do as I spun again, pushing off his huge body to set myself a few steps past his now exposed back, planting feet, arresting momentum—only to jack its kinetic energy into legs pushing off stone, axe lowered, behind me, coming forward in sync with my body, taut muscles exploding as the axe came over my shoulder, pistoning into the top of his head, planting a heraldic flag to the f--k yous of history.

The Bones of our Fathers, book one in the series Blood Brothers

Come on, Dozer; let’s see what you and Daddy can do.

I pulsed what I wanted over the bond. The floodgates opened. He scraped his hoof, in imitation of Taurean improvosu, head lowered, billows of repressed loss from snorting snout, and he was off, a locomotive with only one destination and one purpose: carnage. I stepped a breath from his shadow, dialed in 1-800-Die F--kers Die.

Bones of the story is good

1st off overall a good story.
But the narrator's use of music to try and up the intensity of fight scenes means you struggle to hear the narrative. Also the editing needs some work with alot of missed words and big gaps. The main issue with story is the over use of stat updates as it feels more like filler than necessity. The story to could use some solid proofing as there were a few mistakes and repetition which takes you out of the flow.
Overall not bad will give book 2 a chance.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
