Arlene RadaskyVery well written and read. Exciting!Quick Silver by Derek Mathias The latest fad of zombies and vampires do not attract me, however magic and Camelot do. I was fascinated to find that I was listening to a book about all the above and all of it was neatly wrapped up into a well-written, very well read adventure. I loved it. Sylvester "Silver" Larcini is a thief who loves to steal in situations that seem impossible. The more challenging the better. His last "job" was the most difficult of his life, as it was not over when he barely escaped from Sherman Lord's compound. He found himself running for his life along with a woman who turned out to be from the past. Derek skillfully wove all the stories of Camelot, zombies, vampires, the undead of other various myths, and twisted the facts enough to allow recognition yet, be different enough to make me believe they could be what really happened in the past. One scene has Silver and Morrigaine coming across some skeletons, obviously at least a thousand years old, with 9mm bullet holes in the skulls. Listen to find out how and why. One of my favorite threads in the story. His protagonist, Silver, along with his new companion, were trapped in many difficult situations, however he used his vast inventory of tricks and knowledge to rescue them, MacGyver-like. Very nicely done. It is written in 1st person point of view and I am very attracted to books in this POV. I felt I was part of the story. I found Derek very easy to listen to and he complimented his story with his voice modulations for character changes.

PodbookfanAmong the bestA strong showing. Well narrated and characterized; this book has an awesome premise and good pacing throughout the first dozen episodes. The funny lines even made me laugh. The ending is appropriate but a little awkward and comes with an over-obvious setup for a sequel that isn't necessary. I'll get the next with or without a cliffhanger.

Airbus78Good storyThe book is interesting in a dungeons and dragons thief meets modern world. Then gets tossed back 1500 years. To a time of real dungeons, magic and spell casting. Very well done by the author Derek Mathias!
