Ace in the Hole

Black Badge Series, Book 3

By: Jaime Castle, Rhett C. Bruno

Narrated by: Roger Clark

Bestselling authors Bruno and Castle conclude the Black Badge series with this culmination of supernatural powers and old foes in an epic finale stretching from the Wild West to the nation’s capital!

On the run and out of time …

Everything changed back in Crescent City when Crowley made his choice to stand up to his angelic handler Shargrafein. It was either her or Rosa, and the choice was clear. Now, there’s no going back.

Something about Rosa has everyone scrambling—a hidden power. It’s up to Crowley to bring her back to the land of the living and discover exactly what she is. Only then might they have a chance against the forces of Heaven and Hell, both of whom want her for their own devices.

So what if that makes him a traitor to the White Throne? They kept the truth about her from him. Made him a pawn in their endless war.

But those above and below aren’t the only ones after Crowley and Rosa. An old rival has resurfaced and he’s out for vengeance, no matter what it takes.

If they hope to evade capture, Crowley will need to trust old friends and allies. And trust doesn’t come easy to a man shot to death by his own boss.

worth the wait!

finally got to listen to the finally book in the black badge series and it was just as good as I hoped it would be.

Favorite so far!

The story has only gotten a lot better. The performance is as good as ever. Idk if we’ll get another but I sure as heck want one.

doesnt get better. period.

Arthur morgan as a witcher and employed by heaven? absolute perfection. im struggling to find anything to fill the void now that its over. reread 100%

Nice brain candy, nothing too in depth

The story was aight, little rushed. But the ending was rather unsatisfactory. Roger Clark's narration carried a lot of it to be honest.

It was a great run!

I have been on this roller coaster, since the beginning. I guess the only reason why I didn’t give the story the full 5 stars was because of the ending. It didn’t have to be a happy one for James but dam couldn’t he have ended up somewhere else after all that. I guess I’ll have to wait another 2 years if there is a chance of another book.
