About this listen

With strength, wit, rakish charm, and a talking sword named Hrym, Rodrick has all the makings of a classic hero - except for the conscience. Instead, he and Hrym live a high life as scoundrels, pulling cons and parting the weak from their gold. When a mysterious woman invites them along on a quest into the frozen north in pursuit of a legendary artifact, it seems like a prime opportunity to make some easy coin - especially if there's a chance for a double-cross. Along with a hooded priest and a half-elven tracker, the team sets forth into a land of witches, yetis, and ancient magic. As the miles wear on, however, Rodrick's companions begin acting steadily stranger, leading man and sword to wonder what exactly they've gotten themselves into...

From Hugo Award-winner Tim Pratt, author of City of the Fallen Sky, comes a bold new tale of ice, magic, and questionable morality set in the world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.

A fun adventure.

I love a good adventure story with roguish characters and twists and turns. Roderick and Hrym are great lead characters and I love their chemistry.

This book kept me enthralled and entertained throughout its entirety! Would recommend it to any fantasy fan! The narrator is one of a kind and was perfect for this particular book. thumbs up and kudos to all.

Real Character

William Dufris performance brings the characters of this story more than to life. In fact I doubt anyone could ever do these characters the justice he has. Even the cadence while narration adds to the characters and the story.

The story itself is a great tale, with characters that stand out on their own, who's mere conversations add to the entertainment of the story.

Not just gamers would enjoy this tale, and anyone who likes entertainment will enjoy the performance given with the story.

Solid Pulp Fantasy

A bit formulaic, but with enough twists to keep it interesting. Solid “thief with a heart of gold” pulp fantasy novel, with a good understanding of the setting.

Never trust a sword with a personality.

I have been reading and listening to audiobooks from Forgotten Realms, and thoroughly enjoyed them. I even delved Into the GreyHawk series with the Justicar. I have to say that I was not sure about Pathfinder but after listening, I'm thoroughly hooked on the adventures of Hrym and Roderick.

A wonderfully fun read!

I really enjoyed the depth of character of not only Roderick and Hrym, but of the supporting cast as well. However, this is not a character study, but a rollicking adventure in the vein of Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser. I love the homage to Leiber's work. Well done Mr. Pratt, you have won a fan for life.

the best part of this book is the con artist and the magic talking sword. the back and forth of witty banter is just hilarious and heartwarming.
