About this listen

The fifth novel in the acclaimed cult favorite series starring Johannes Cabal, necromancer.

Johannes Cabal, a necromancer of some little infamy, has come into possession of a vital clue that may lead him to his ultimate goal: a cure for death. The path is vague, however, and certainly treacherous as it takes him into strange territories that, quite literally, no one has ever seen before. The task is too dangerous to venture upon alone, so he must seek assistance - comrades for the coming travails.

Assisted - ably and otherwise - by his vampiric brother, Horst, and by the kindly accompaniment of a criminologist and a devil, they will encounter ruins and diableries, mystery and murder, the depths of the lowest pit, and a city of horrors - London, to be exact.

Yet even though Cabal has risked such peril believing he understands the dangers he faces, he is still underestimating them. He is walking into a trap of such arcane complexity that even the one who drew him there has no idea of its true terrors. As it closes slowly and subtly around them, it may be that there will be no survivors at all.

I can't tell you how much I actually love this series. What I'm not looking forward to this book hangover I'm about to experience.

I discovered the first book, by chance, years ago when I missed a bus and decided to kill time in a bookstore coffee shop. I instantly fell in love with the series and have the entirety of it in both physical and audio form (plus the short story audio). Johannes is definitely one of my favourite fictional characters of all time.

Nick Smith does and excellent job voice acting. He does lack the ability to portray a female voice convincingly and when the cast has 3 main women it becomes very noticeable. although, to his credit, each voice of thr whole cast is noticably different from each other so it's easy to keep track of all players in ones head. The story is 99/100 excellent as well.

This entire series is really engaging. Characters that you will become very attached to. Best book series I have read in years! It actually made me laugh out loud several times and I felt very irritated if circumstances prevented me from indulging in it.

such a great set of characters

Cabal brothers are together again. They are joined in there quest by Leonie Barrow from the first two books and other characters. It is a wonderful fun book with a great narrator.
