"Imagine Guns and Roses retired, overweight, settled down, and way past their prime. Axel wants to get the band back together for one last big hurrah. Now imagine all of the band members as mercenaries. It's that awesome. "

"Kings of the Wyld's author, Nicholas Eames, has in his first outing written a trim yet full epic fantasy. He captures every human emotion in this book while building both a compelling world and a captivating narrative. I've never laughed this much while reading a book, and it's been quite some time since I felt this personally moved by a work of fiction. Eames' writing style is practically conversational yet consistently proper in grammar and syntax. Canada is, as far as I know, missing its national epic. Kings of the Wyld should be considered a contender."

"Funny, emotional, action packed DnD campaign. I loved the characters and the HEART."
Sasha Gray
"The author includes a rock/metal Playlist to listen to on his website for certain sections of the book. And truly a wonderful way to enjoy this book is playing those tunes on repeat as you read. Every ounce or Rock band innuendo from "frontman" to "battle of the bands" makes this a spectacularly fun read and the characters "getting the band back together" was the perfect way to tell this story. One of those books that never fails on the reread to make me tear up. A tale of camaraderie and love. "
