Master of Monsters: Publisher's Pack

Master of Monsters, Books 1-2

By: Stephen L. Hadley

Narrated by: Joel Froomkin

Contains books 1 and 2 of Master of Monsters.

Lord of Flesh, book 1

The Isles are a brutal, nasty place and the capital city, Ansiri, is no exception. Its nobility is rife with infighting, nonhuman races are cruelly enslaved, and violence is the primary currency. It's those very things that Baron Leo VanOrden plans to exploit.

The ambitious, young heir to a waning family dynasty, Leo has nothing but time on his hands. Time - and an abundance of opportunities. Because, for all its flaws, Ansiri is a city where anything can be accomplished.

Baron of Hearts, book 2

It has been less than a month since Baron Leo VanOrden orchestrated the deaths of his closest rivals. And yet, for an ambitious nobleman, enemies grow like weeds. Unable to rest, Leo is forced to do the only thing he can: Prepare for the next fight.

This time, however, it's not fellow barons he's challenging, but several of the most powerful lords the Capital has to offer. And no matter how many servants, allies, or vaults of gold he acquires, Leo is guaranteed an uphill battle.

Fortunately, Ansiri and the Isles remain a brutal, nasty place. A place Leo is determined to prove himself capable of mastering.

Intended for mature listeners only.

Kinda trashy, but the performance, it worth it

So a little heavy on the sex, but the performance can sometimes make me genuinely laugh. The story can be funny occasionally but the narrator really sells it.
This narrator is great, the way he goes through the sex scenes is hilarious. He sounds like what a member of some 1800s gentlemen's club describing his hunt on a safari while also has a breathy quality like he's masturbating it is just the funniest thing I have heard in a while.

dark story good aufio, not to evil mc

drak story but mc has silver lining. abit svocial justice and intrigues make good listening. audio matches book style.

It is pretty good.

I felt as though the naughty scenes were only there to pad out the story. Despite that when the story was going it was pretty good. I like political dances of death.

has potential

worth reading overall but MC is just too weak, nothing about him stands out. Just wondering who is going to save him next.

Good monster characters poor MC

Really wanted enjoy this book but., The MC stayed the sniffling weak (physically/ emotionally) trope throughout the story. He is master in name only. Everyone around him is stronger in character to include the servants. The sex scenes were better written and more occurring than the rest of the story. Not trying to sound prudish here but less sex and more story development would of made this a better read. There were times when the story held you in trance so I will continue you on with the next in the series. My hope is for a more mature MC that doesn't cut himself by drawing his weapon.
