When you steal a hundred grand from some very bad people, the best way to survive is to stay small and quiet...

Possibly it's not to save a pair of drowning girls, not go 'viral' on social media and certainly not to let the local police take your passport, trapping you on a small 'party' island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

But Steve isn't the average guy, he's ex-military, ex-enforcer and ex-human. He's a one man nanite fuelled nightmare for those that cross the line, and he's decided that its time to clean up his act. He's going to make up for the things he's done, and save 'the little guys'.

It's a nice fantasy, but even he has to admit, it's really just a justification, because he's a very bad man, with horrifying abilities, and he's only just learning what he's capable of. He needs a reason to not go to the dark, and if that's hunting down the creatures of the night and beating them to death with their own femurs: well, he's just the man for the job.

Stolen money. Greek Islands. Werewolves and Enforcers...what could possibly go wrong?

I have read a few of Jez' books and thoroughly enjoyed them, especially the Rise of Mankind series. This is better. So much better.

Steve is a great character and I really like all of the side characters along the way. Sets up for brilliant series with an excellent ending. I also mostly listened to the audiobook of this and the narrators do a fantastic job, making it much more enjoyable than others I've listened too.

Couldn't recommend this book more and have already bought the sequel and I'm just gutted that the next audiobook isn't out yet

The best of Cajiao

the only problem i have it's with the performance, the difference in volume between the male narrator and female narrator. the female narrator it's toooo loud and high pitched.
I almost stopped the book while driving

great start and great story

a very entertaining book, I look forward to the next chapter, my only comment is that the main character comes from London and the narrator has an American accent!!

An entertaining twist on Legend

After finishing the age of mankind books that are available, eagerly awaiting the release of the final book. I was looking for another series to get into.
Jez’s style and storytelling, are just what I love. This series is as gripping as the others.
I wish more people knew about what he does. Thanks Jez, you are a legend!!

If you liked rise of mankind series, you’ll love this!

Its an interesting mix of aliens, fantasy, and lit rpg elements. its a little weird sometimes, but it makes me feel things so it must be doing stuff right. the only unfortunate thing is that the main voice actor is American but the MC is English which is odd.
