Summary

Out of prison and back on the streets, Daniel Faust returns home to a city on fire. The Chicago mob is making their play for control of Las Vegas, with an army of gunmen and a lethal shapeshifter on their side, while Daniel's friend Jennifer marshals the forces of the Vegas underworld. Staying on the sidelines isn't an option, especially when a Metro detective orders him to get the war under control - and if he can't, he'll expose Daniel's secrets to the FBI.

It's a bad time for ghosts of the past to come calling, but Damien Ecko is on his way with a hit list and a legion of walking corpses. Marked for death by the courts of hell, the mad necromancer plans on making sure that everyone who framed him, Daniel first and foremost, dies along with him. Hunted by the living and the dead, pushed to his limits, Daniel will have to be smarter, faster, and more ruthless than he's ever been. He'll need to call upon new, dark powers, and darker allies.

His enemies thought they took everything he had. They couldn't take his hunger. When this war is over, Daniel Faust will rise like a phoenix...or go down in flames.

Best of the series

Excellent escapism, but narrator can't do accents. His Scottish is hilarious. As bad as Dick Van Dyke's Cockney in Mary Poppins.

Always a good listen

Think I'm on my 6th or 7th time listening through this series, I personally love how well the story is written and even on my 7th time listening through I was on the edge of my seat. Adam doesn't a brilliant job narrating these books. As we all know, the voice can make or break the book and he does it so well. This an Book 1 are my absolute favorites and recommend these to everyone that asks me for something new.

Daniel vs a necromancer and more!

The Castle Doctrine (Daniel Faust #6) by Craig Schaefer just keeps taking this series higher, faster, and adds that special brand of awesomeness to each one! Daniel may be out of prison but his choices are still limited if he wants his friends, family, and town to survive...and himself! He is up against a necromancer that never gets 'dead tired', lol! There are all sorts of people, of sorts, not happy to see him alive after told he was dead. He has to go to some very dangerous lengths to get the power and help he will need. Always exciting, action packed, unpredictable, and love these characters!
The narrator is top notch!

Another great I installment!

This is my favorite series, and this novel is as good as the first. The action is non-stop, and you really care about Daniel and his family. I highly recommend it!

Great book, but...

Do you mean to tell me that no magician EVER thought to stick their hand inside the magician’s hat before Daniel did? He even points out how common a trick it is!

The supernatural Travis Mcgee

I have been a fan of the anti hero since I read my first Travis Mcgee novel. Daniel Faust is the magical version. Will do what he has to for his friends, and is not afraid to go beyond the law. I love the Harmony Black books, but Daniel Faust is the scoundrel we wish we could be.

Faust gets medieval on his enemies

Any additional comments?

Really good listen, possibly the best in the series. Faust has a real edge to him in this book. Narration is spot on as usual. This series is building toward a truly epic clash, can't wait for the next one.

Daniel my Daniel. I still love my Daniel

Well, Daniel has finally grown up. Daniel has been going through the series and leaving people at his back defeated, humiliated, and wounded. Now many of them have banded together to take down Faust once and for all.

This journey is Faust's realization that his actions, mistakes, have brought more danger to his family and friends than he intended. He must work within the system instead of on the sidelines where his efforts have not been totally effective.

How committed is Faust to saving Vegas?
