From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ilona Andrews comes a novella featuring Roman, our favorite Volhv wizard in the always intriguing, colorful, volatile Kate Daniels world.

It’s not easy serving Chernobog, the God of Destruction, Darkness and Death…especially during the holidays; and especially when you’re out of eggnog and one of your pesky, freeloading mythic creatures has eaten your last cookie.

Roman would like nothing more than to be left alone, but when a wounded boy stumbles into his yard and begs for sanctuary, Roman takes him in. Now elite mercenaries are camped out on his property, combat mages are dousing the house with fire, and strange priests are unleashing arcane magic. They thought Roman was easy pickings, just a hermit in the woods, but they chose the wrong dark priest to annoy. For while Roman might be patient, he is the Black Volhv, filled with the love of his terrible god. For his adversaries, it's a fight to the death, but for him, it's just another day in the neighborhood.

The only thing I didn't like about the story is that it was too short. So I'm hoping there will be more in the future.

Sehr viel slawische Götterwelt, brauchte gefühlt ein Lexikon und Papier und Bleistift für Notizen. War dadurch etwas verwirrend zum Zuhören

Disappointing, boring. What happened to the authors?? They were top notch - skip this one, please

Not much

Please don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of Roman and do like the story itself, which I am struggling a bit to remember. This particular book is two thirds (it feels like 90% but I think 2/3 is closer to the mark) a description of slavik mythology. All the dry facts are connected with a bit of a storyline. I like the story itself, unfortunately all the facts and vocabulary became jumbled in my mind and I feel I now know less than before. For instance, there is a long section describing the magical critters of slavik mythology. Their names, to someone with no knowledge of any of the languages from that part of the world, sound similar. I couldn't remember which was which and as afterwards, each was referenced only by name, I had no idea which critter the new information went with. I expect for anyone able to keep the names separate the whole thing would be a lot more enjoyable.
What I did enjoy is what I learned about Roman himself. I'd love to have it as a short audio, without all the lectures on slavik mythology. Maybe I'll go for the Kindle version and skim through. I can't face listening to this again.

Good story hidden within hours of tedium
