About this listen

A Cado Ezechiar Novel

In his first full-length novel, the vampiric anti-hero Cado Ezechiar finds himself caught in a web of war and deceit in the city of Aventhis.

Listen to it because

The cold-hearted Cado Ezechiar is obsessed with revenge and keeping to his strict moral code—can he stay true to himself and avenge those who he has lost?

The story

Cado Ezechiar is a wanderer who has outlived the memory of the age that made him. A Soulblight vampire who accepted the curse as his people and kingdom fell to Chaos, he now roams the Realm of Death and beyond seeking retribution and salvation for the ones he failed.

Aided by the bound spirits of those he lost, Cado follows a path of revenge, hunting the servants of Chaos to slake his need for blood while seeking the Sorcerer of Change who destroyed his kingdom. When his hunt leads him to the free city of Aventhis, Cado becomes caught up in the machinations of greater powers—beings who see the city and its people as dust in the eyes of ambitious gods. Torn between his code of honour and his desire for vengeance, Cado must navigate a web of war and deceit, or lose everything.

This is a great story, I got hooked and finished it in a few days. I hope Cado is back soon featuring in more books. Highly recommended

I hate vampires. And vampires that are TOO NOBLE to drink innocent blood is a tired trope, fresh only too naive teenage neonates. Too often vampires are used as a lazy device to add both edgy interpersonal conflict and an excuse to write gore. At first I thought here we go again, but I persisted in the hopes of using some background NPCs for Soulbound. As the story progressed i was surprised to find the writing excellent, the characterisation thoughtful and the story compelling. Richard Reed's telling of the tale is cinematic. I still hate vampires but I loved The Hollow King.

Not just another edge lord?

incredible AOS story, make it a series please GW Hollow king was a great combination of action, story telling and character building with sorrow and redemption but also got you thinking what is wrong and right. great job and thank you for keeping the voice acting clean, sometimes it's to much going on but this was perfect.

The Hollow King follows a fallen prince as he attempts to uncover a chaos conspiracy in an old medieval town.

I really like the AOS novels with a strong protagonist. Sometimes I lost the flow of the story and had to rewind. But the narrator Richard Reed (I really liked him in the Cursed City narration) dit a great job and I didn’t mind rewinding.

If there would be a sequel I would definitely listen to that as well.

Very unfolding story and great narration!
