Just finished Hero in the Shadows part of the Drenai Series by David Gemmell. Oddly, Audible has it marked as the 3rd in the series (which is why I listened to it third), but it's actually the 9th book published and the 3rd of the books about Waylander the Slayer. While each book refers to events in other books, for the most part, each book can be read individually in more or less any order.

I find all the Drenai books quite enjoyable, having read them all over the years (they were published over a 20 year period 1984 to 2004) in paper, then again when they came out as ebooks. As I mentioned with the first two, the narrator, Sean Barrett, fits the books well and is very much a narrator rather than a voice actor. I refer of course to his reading style, he's actually a long time British actor and voice actor. By narrator I mean that he uses the same basic voice during the entire book, rather than having difference voices for each character, a la Jim Dale with Harry Potter.

Next up, Arrow's Fall, book 3 of the Heralds of Valdemar.
