About this audiobook
One moment I'm a heretical priest in the twelfth century, hunted, hated...The next, I'm waking up in the nearest corpse. Stuck in a cycle of instant reincarnation, popping back up like a tarnished penny.
Fast forward eight hundred years, and you might think I’ve learned a thing or two. Nope. All I've learned is how to die far too easily, far too often.
Now my territory in the South of France is under threat and I find myself trapped by impossible angel-made runes. If the angels have gone full red lightsaber evil, it might not only be my territory in danger, but the whole of reality itself...
I need to stop whoever is behind this, and now. After all, you can’t come back to life, if there’s nothing left to come back to.
"imPerfect Magic" is the first book in "The imPerfect Cathar" series, a darkly funny supernatural suspense following a trio of immortal heretics. If you can't wisecrack while death is on the line? Well... perhaps you're not dying right.
This book contains strong language, dark humour and graphic violence.

Reviews for imPerfect Magic

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Saw this in a facebook ad, frankly it isn't Pratchett (but then nothing quite is) but I grew to care about Paul, his dry inner monologue, his wonky moral compass and his friends. Well paced and a careful sprinking of realism from historical events and existing geography make it rather grounded and compelling. Took a while to get used to the authors voice as a narrator but enjoyed knowing the phrasing was likely exactly as written and intended (something often lost if read by a voice actor).
Looking forward to the next book. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is gritty supernatural suspense story with found family, magic and a good serving of violence. The author does a superb job of narrating his own story.
