About this listen

There are some things that even a centuries-old sorcerer hesitates to challenge....

When Nathan Garrett’s friend seeks his help investigating a bloody serial killer, the pattern of horrific crimes leads to a creature of pure malevolence, born of hatred and dark magic. As powerful as he is, Nate fears he may be overmatched, but when evil targets those he cares about and he is confronted by dire threats both old and new, Nate must reveal a secret from his recently remembered past to remind his enemies why they should fear him once more.

Born of Hatred, set in modern London with historical flashbacks to America’s Old West, continues the dark urban fantasy of Crimes Against Magic, the acclaimed first book in the gritty and action-packed Hellequin Chronicles.

Dresden Files on Steroids

Sometimes the best that can be said about an audio book is that you just couldn't stop listening. Essentially the audio version of "I couldn't put it down". Either description fits Born of Hatred. Is it a great book? Even for a fan of this kind of "urban fantasy" it's not great. But it really is quite good and far better than some. I'll keep at the series for as long as McHugh keeps writing it. Or at least until the next Dresden Files.

Contains explicit violence and torture

Where does Born of Hatred rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Lower 50%.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Kasey defied the lich.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Any scenes with Kasey in them.

Any additional comments?

The book contains explicit violence and torture. So far, anyone tortured by the main character were obviously guilty and the tortures resulted in useful information.

Just keeps getting better.

Great narration. Good character development. I'm enjoying the stories very much. If you are a fan of the Dresden Files or Sandman Slim give this series a try.
