Not what I expected

Would you try another book from Seth Skorkowsky and/or R. C. Bray?

This is a collection of short stories with the same characters in the same world. I would have preferred a single story.

Highly Entertaining

Very much enjoyed this book. It was an excellent mix of tales of thievery, intrigue, and suspense. I also loved how each ending had a slight twist that I didn't see coming. I am very much looking forward to the sequel that comes out soon.

Great Book

I kinda like the multiple short stories it allows for more interesting things to happen with no drags.

good roleplay ideas from this, also check out Seth's Youtube for more roleplay stuff

I loved EVERYTHING about this book!

Seth Skorkowskey is an amazing author! I finished this in one sitting, I simply had to. Every part of the story pulls you further in. I have a new favorite series.

Surprisingly Addictive Collection of Short Stories

What did you love best about Mountain of Daggers?

Every story was excellent and captivating. I was always satisfied by the conclusion of one story straight into the middle of the next.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Ahren was by far my favorite; his character development was fantastic and I really fell in love with him.

What does R. C. Bray bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

As always, perfect reader.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! I found myself sitting in my car after work trying to finish a chapter before heading inside.

Not bad, could’ve been better.

Each of the short tails were pretty good. But would have been much better as a complete story.

Not what I wanted

I adored the Damoren series. Skorkowsky has a way of dragging you into the story almost right off the bat, and I was waiting impatiently for this one. My issue? I was hoping for a story about Ahren the Black Raven and not just a bunch of random stories about his adventures. I will probably return this since although each story is good none of them really go anywhere or get in depth with the characters (understandably since there is not enough time in a 30 min story) and I don't like that. I hope Skorkowsky writes another book about the Black Raven because I'd like to read more about him than just his jobs as a thief. The potential is there and I am feeling very let down.

Seth Skorkowsky Hits Another Homerun

I drive truck for a living. I read his Vuldacan series. So when I joined audible, I decided to try his Black Raven series. I was not disappointed! A great listen if you do lots of driving. R.C. Bray was a great narrator. Highly recommended.

Great adventures and mysterys.

What about R. C. Bray’s performance did you like?

Another outstanding performance

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Tales of the Black Raven
