About this listen

He came from a humble background. When he’s given a desperate battlefield promotion, he may face a grisly end....

Kaith knows he’s been luckier than most. Born to a blacksmith, he’s grateful that hard work and good fortune granted him a position as a man-at-arms in the countess’ service. But when he accompanies her entourage to a joyful annual festival, the young man is shocked to find the village besieged, cursed...and Her Ladyship’s knights slaughtered.

Taking shelter in the now-helpless town, Kaith feels unworthy as he and his fellow armsmen are charged with repelling the demonic enemy. But when the force that returns is an army of familiar faces twisted with undead malice, he fears his tiny contingent will soon join their ranks.

Facing rampant terror with little hope, can Kaith prevent darkness from claiming anyone left standing?

The Dawn of Unions is the first book in the sweeping Cycle of Bones dark military fantasy series. If you enjoy unlikely heroes, realistic battles, and fighting for survival, then you’ll love JP Corwyn’s gritty novella.

The story slowly unfolds and becomes more gripping and in depth. I got the audible book version to listen to while I worked from home during the corvid-19 pandemic but quickly found myself glued to the story and voice acting and not doing much work. The audio book is short at 4 and a half hours and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase further instalments if there were more in this line of books

The Dawn of Unions written by JP corwyn is an exciting debut novella from a promising new author.

The book is written with such detail and passion about a new and quite intriguing world with colourful characters and lore, reminding me of other famous works. The book's language is colourful and complex enough to describe moments properly, while not being too overbearing on the reader, and with the excellent performance from Simon Vance, gives the book character on another level, The high detailed and effort put into Simon's performance gives the characters life and chilling story even more love, dread and suspense.

It's a definite recommend, and a must read for anyone who loves proper fantasy medieval fiction!

A chilling story with much character!

Pragmatism, coming of age, and how conflict shapes a community.

Gradual escalation that never lets up in an thought-out and authentic world with believable fights, and believable consequences. Excited to see where it goes next!

A world ripe for expansion
