Galaxy

A GameLit Urban Fantasy (High Table Hijinks, Book 1)

By: Christopher Johns

Narrated by: Christian J. Gilliland, Dansare Marks

A temple desecrated. Sealed paths opened. Let the hijinks begin!

Sergeant Marcus Bola and his platoon flew to a newly uncovered temple in the desert while deployed overseas, an unheard-of mission. Something in the ruined holy place had killed many, and the survivors met an unfortunate ambush just before reaching safety. The attack left Marcus wounded and medically discharged from the only life he’s known...but something wasn’t right. None of it was.

Laying low and waiting for answers, Marcus decides tending bar is as good a way to stay afloat and off the radar. Turns out slinging cocktails, singing karaoke, and talking to the patrons isn’t as easy as he thought it would be: Gods, monsters, and devils are showing up to try the mixers.

The vessel has been chosen. Something inside him is calling the shots - and we’re not talking about tequila!

ah the High Table

Chris Johns, you glorious bastard, you've done it again. You've got the wife and I hooked. I can not wait to aquire the entire series, you know, as soon as it comes out. The narration was great, can't wait to see how they handle some of the voices coming up. You sir, are a literary giant and a master of the paper and plume. You keep writing and we will keep helping to keep the inkwell full. Do not ever quit this amazing road you travel.

Great book

I really enjoyed this book. Has to be one of my new top 10 series that I have read. You Rock Chris!!!

even better than Axe druid

this is a quick and dirty world filled with supernatural beings and our MC is just as clueless as we are...
plenty of humour couple together with great storytelling...
on top of this it's easy to tell that Chris served and still loves his guns...

if you like Monster Hunter International, this is a book for you

good book

I really hate how audible requires a minimum amount of words for reviews. .

Stellar new series.

Excellent new urban fantasy series by Christopher Johns. Very light GameLit story that brings in some of the expected leveling and skill ups without getting too 'crunchy' on the stats.
The author does a good job of world building the fantasy elements into the normal world and brings in mythical beings not normally found in urban fantasy. I'm looking forward to the sequel.

Both narrators did an amazing job. I've enjoyed a number of books narrated by Christian Gilliland and after hearing Dansare Marks performance I'll be looking for more books read by her.
