About This Audiobook

An ordinary evening at a bar becomes the starting point for something far stranger when Sean refuses to back down from the wrong man at the wrong moment. What follows sends him before a council of divine beings, each with competing claims on his soul. He chooses Morrigan, goddess of fate, death, and battle, and wakes reborn into an entirely new world shaped by Celtic myth and governed by the Summer and Winter Queens. In this realm, spoken agreements are not merely promises but binding laws, and Sean must learn that lesson fast if he hopes to carve out any kind of life.

Andrea Parsneau is a natural fit for the material, bringing easy charm and dry humor to Sean's perspective without overselling the fish-out-of-water premise. Her pacing keeps the world-building from bogging down, and she handles the mythological cast with distinct, confident characterizations. At just under nine hours, the runtime sits at a comfortable length for the series opener.
