Summary

"Look, I’m not writing this to feed my ego. Or to get free drinks, or have ladies throw themselves at me. I’m sure that will all happen, but it’s not why I am doing this." (Dirk in chapter one)

“The hero is a sarcastic, anti-social jerk, which is why he’s perfect." (Dan Gookin, international best-selling author)

The Kathaldi Chronicles are an epic tale of a long forgotten evil that has returned to conquer the world.

The Kathaldi hate the gods. The gods are afraid of the Kathaldi. The last time they tangled, most of the world was destroyed.

The only hope is a small group of friends. Join Dirk as he tells their story. Who is Dirk? He's a thief. And a scoundrel. Now he needs to help his boyhood friend save the world.

Some wonder why Dirk would help. Look, he’s a jerk, not a monster.

And if the world is destroyed, who would Dirk steal from?

Does that make him a hero? Hopefully the ladies will think so.

There is adventure, heroes aplenty, magic, monsters, evil deeds, and lots of laughs as Dirk tells how he saved the world while his friends were nearby.

Good opening to a saga


I am not usually a fan of fantasy novels but I was given this in exchange for a unbiased review. It has a David Eddings sort of feel but written in a modern style. The main character/narrator is interesting and funny in places. The story moves along at a nice pace but I feel it lacked some depth. It could do with more worldbuilding to go with the plot. It is obviously the start of a longer saga. Overall I enjoyed it.

This was a fun read

A little predictable but had good action, I enjoyed it and this is the first time I have listened to anything Alan has done and I was very happy with his performance.
