Hat Trick, Book 3

By: Luke Chmilenko, G. D. Penman

Narrated by: John Lee

Chaos ensues as the greatest wizard in all the land faces his toughest challenge yet—himself—in this gripping conclusion to the hilarious Hat Trick trilogy.

Absalom Scryne isn't himself. On the one hand, he's a well-rounded gentleman of a sentient hat with two beloved apprentices and a tagalong swordsman. On the other, he's a rather furious wizard sitting on the opposite side of a desk, demanding they give back his hat. Needless to say, it's not an ideal situation.

And it's about to get worse. Because the battle between civilization and all the monsters of the Badlands and the underworld is about to begin. With one Absalom Scryne or another in the human corner, wearing the blue hat, and the dark god Nun Mhor Goth in the monster corner, wearing concentrated darkness, it's going to be a clash for the history books.

Facing off against every demonic creature from the previous volumes in the series—plus some extra ones thrown in for fun—our heroes are all too aware the battle could go either way, at the drop of a hat . . .

A Fine Conclusion!

This last book does well enough to close up just about every plot line established in the previous entries and doesn't overstay its welcome. I'd have preferred the epilogue went over more of the events right after the final chapter, however it still does a very good job of ending the story. Narrator is fun to listen to, and truly brought this story to life.

Such a wonderful story

The author weave a tale of delight and joy and mystery and magic with lots of surprises.
And the author knows how to use the word envious in all the correct places as opposed to some who use the word jealous.

The characters are rich.

I enjoyed the evolving relationships and banter between all of the characters, but especially between Absolom Scryne, Ig and Sidney.

Great quick finished story

This was a great story quick read and a good conclusion, Luke is a great author and John Lee is a great narrator!

Great ending to the series

Wraps it all up nicely. I was hesitant after the second book, but I enjoyed this one.
