So cool.

I love the gruesome Robert E. Howard style ancient pagan Celtic world. overall, tons of fun

Great Story

I loved The story. It was entertaining without dragging. The performances were well done. My only complaint was at times the background music was a touch too loud and it drowned out the dialog in a spot or two.

Was good.....

Thought it was ok....to much going on though with characters talking over others.

A Must Listen

I am an audio junkie and fan of both Stephen Hogan and Colin Morgan, so this listen was a no-brainer and a real treat.  I am new to the world of comics and was fortunate to be gifted a copy of the collector’s edition to view while listening to this stellar collection of talent.  From the performers’ seemingly effortless ease at inhabiting the characters and bringing them to life to the immersive sound effects and atmosphere-enhancing score…this was a delightful listen. 

Probably should have started with the earlier ones

Unfortunately most of it is narration. Without the images there isn't much story to enjoy.
