Kingdom of Acatalec

The Acatalec Series, Book 1

By: S.M. McCoy

Narrated by: Stevie Marie

I work with aliens, my best friends is held hostage, and everyone wants to murder me before the lord prince can magically bond to share my power?

If I had known an illegal drone race would lead to murder, kidnapping, and lies, then I might have thought better about the giant prize of credits and the dream of walking again.

I never met my best friend in person until a drone race gone wrong had both of us vying for our lives against a secret alien society. To make matters worse...my boss was one of them, and I couldn't decide if he was trying to save my life or the reason I was in trouble to begin with.

Entertaining listen

Kingdom of Acatalec is a captivating Sci-fi Fantasy Adventure Romance audiobook from award-winning author S.M. McCoy.

This is the first book in The Acatalec Series, and it is narrated by the author, who is also a professional narrator recording under the name Stevie Marie.

I always find it fascinating when an author records their own work because they are giving the listeners unique insights into the story, the characters, and, of course, into the universe they created. The fact that Kingdom of Acatalec is narrated, recorded, and produced by the author who also turned out to be quite a talented narrator only enriched the already more than enjoyable listening experience.

I was pleasantly surprised by Kingdom of Acatalec – the writing is good, the action moves fast, the characters are colorful, and we even have a proper representation of a disabled individual…

I really don’t want to spoil any of the plot lines for you, but I can say that if you like novels that seamlessly and successfully combine science fiction with fantasy, plus a cyberpunk atmosphere, full of drones, aliens, illegal races, high-end technology such as implants and robotics, you should definitely give a chance to this audiobook.

As I said above, the narration offers a lot of additional information about the characters and the feelings that they are living. Thanks to the involvement of the author with this audio production, S.M. McCoy, a.k.a. Stevie Marie, delivers a quiet, balanced, and entertaining performance. She reads softly, she infuses the events with emotion just at the right time, and she brings these characters to life in a natural and credible manner.

If you are into this kind of adventure, I’m sure that you will be delighted by this first tale in the Acatalec universe. As always, I encourage you to listen to the available sample, and if you like what you hear, purchase the audiobook.

I’m really curious to see where this story is going next and hope to be able to bring you more reviews in the future.
