Breach of Peace is the first novella clearly meant to be usher in a new fantasy series written by none other than the Goblin--- I mean Daniel Greene. Flintlock Fantasy with a darker dash somewhere in there as well, it was a very fast - but supremely satisfying - listen on the train!
The narration by none other than Kate Reading and Michael Kramer was fantastic as well and lent these characters an unforgettable voice. The action was fast-paced, much as the rest of the book, but even within the relatively short amount of time this novella had, it delivered solidly when it came to emotional impact and hinted at bigger things when it came to worldbuilding etc in the background just enough to make me curious and eager for more, but not too much that I felt like the author was trying to cram every information available onto the pages.
Needless to say, I already pre-ordered book 2 <3
