While very short, this introductory tale fits in a surprising amount of story and the setting, a single location helps to direct the tale and allow the author to concentrate on the players themselves.
While no real history is provided for the cast, you quickly get the feeling that Mr Darkk is a well-traveled and learned sorcerer. The presence of Miss Shadow works really well as she helps to ask the questions we have to avoid more literary chaff.
I’ve given the narrator a 4/5 not due to any perceived failings but purely down to the lack of range shown in the tale but I do put some onus on the narrowness of the story for preventing them really stretching their verbal muscles but there really is nothing wrong with their work and they did an excellent job with what they had to work with.
Again this is a very short, tight tale but has easily achieved its aim, that being to convince me that I need to follow up with more of the writers works.

The book was quite interesting as it introduced you to the two main characters but it was way to short for you to get the feel of who or what they represent. I received this book from Audiobooks Unleashed and this is my honest review.
