Publisher's summary

Back in black!

In the Undercity of Corvis, where mercenaries and criminals blur the lines between them, a ruthless crime lord has made a bold move to establish a stranglehold on Corvis' underworld and make it his own.

When Canice Gormleigh becomes the target of a brutal foreign crime syndicate called the Black Dogs, Colbie Sterling and the rest of the Black River Irregulars are prepared to defend her. Yet what begins as a simple bodyguard assignment turns personal when the syndicate, led by the vengeful underboss Ivan Varnek and a strange mother-son duo, marks the Black River Irregulars as the sole remaining obstacle keeping the Black Dogs from taking over the Undercity...and then the city of Corvis itself. Where other underworld gangs have negotiated, surrendered, or fled from the Black Dogs, the Black River Irregulars will stand and die instead….

Fun Story, Great Narrator

I had never heard Scott Aiello narrate before and was very impressed by him. I'm not sure how narrators are chosen for books but I can't imagine anyone else more suited for this one. The story really came to life with hs characterzations. And the story itself was a lot of fun. It was very straight forward and easy to follow yet didn't seem shallow.

I have The Undercity board game it was very nice to see those characters in a book and listen to their story. I'm looking forward to more books in the series.

Good story

The narrator did an excellent job creating a distinctive voice for each character, and really gave a performance! the story itself was fun and a little quirky.

Poorly written.

Not my favorite in the lore. Lots of exposition in the dialogue makes it sound like a middle school play.
