The next book in the Destroyermen series (I believe this is book 4 of 5). Still my favorite time-travel/alternate world series. Great characters, great stories. One of my go-to Audible selections.
My Grade: A
Welcome to the Pub! In here you should find a variety of bits and pieces I've put together, from fiction to X-Cam rules to Battle Reports and more. Hopefully you'll find something of interest, or be polite enough to pretend! So pull up a stool. Guinness and diet coke are always available, for anything else, you'll just have to hope for the best!

The Horns of Ruin
Finished this book awhile ago, and REALLY liked it. It starts off . . . different than you'd expect, because it's setting up a more intricate world than you'd anticipate, and the fact that it's a totally different world, and not a 'steam-punked-up' alternate reality, there's some static at the beginning as your brain takes time to adjust. But once you do, it really does a good job.
I particularly liked the end, where a lot is implied, and mostly left to the reader to fill in on his or her own. An entire mythos is created, a unique magic/godhead formula over-arches the entire story, and seems to be ripe for future expansion.
I'd give this book an A-/A for myself, mainly because it took a little while to engage me. But that could easily have been my own brain not conforming to what the book was throwing to me . . .
