Summary
"Better to Live than to Die" was published in the anthology Blackguards: Tales of Assassins, Mercenaries, and Rogues.
About this story, author John Gwynne says, "The Banished Lands has a violent past, where men and giants clashed in a war for supremacy and near-extinction for the vanquished. Now men rule the land, giants little more than a memory, lurking in the wilds and dark places. This tale takes place ten years before the events of Malice, book one of The Faithful and the Fallen, within the Darkwood, a great forest that splits the western realms of Ardan and Narvon. It recounts a key moment in the life of a young bowman, Camlin, who is part of the Darkwood Brigands - a moment that has far reaching consequences for the great conflict to come."

An enjoyable intro to a great series
Planning on starting the faithful and the fallen very soon so decided to give this little prequel a listen to. It's a shape of things to come and was as enjoyable as a 30 minute story can be. I already like the style thoough

Not bad
Can't say I loved it. It was smaller than a short story. But it's a good breath of air and the ending let me wondering. Definitely an amazing way to introduce your audience to the world. Good job!

Ok
Not bad for a short story and a free download. Might listen to a longer story by the same author.

Great background story
Enjoyed the story but narration was weak and it was not read as well as if should have.
