It is March, 1915 in France, and just behind the front lines a woman is running for her life. She does not run from enemy soldiers or falling mortars; a far more sinister creature stalks her, one created by bloodshed and black magic. This is the newest threat in a war growing uglier by the day, and it won't be the last. Or the worst.

But this woman is not a civilian. As a knight of the Order of Jo... more

  • An Actual 5 Star

    Genuinely and refreshingly unique story that is IMMEDIATELY gripping. Sound production is top tier and create a robust sense of immersion. I believe the story (season 1) is voiced predominantly by one actress… and in terms of fiction PCs, it’s hard for me to not prioritize larger multicast productions… but she’s wonderful. Clear, paced, well defined voices, great cadences…I could go on… But I’ll just say, for the first time in my life, I joined a Patreon; by the end of ep 3, I knew I needed to e... more

  • Original and Engrossing - Truly Bingeworthy

    Set on the battlefields of WWI the female knights of the Order of Joan battle the supernatural beings who haunt the battlefield in search of soldiers to prey upon. Beginning with the killing of a vampire, Minerva Dawson’s adventures are truly engrossing and encompass some eternal trials, like the unwillingness of male officers to listen to her suggestions, despite her superior experience. An original setting, wonderful voice work and great sound effects make this an exemplary work of fiction. C... more

  • Narration-driven horror, this story develops its internal mythology with careful detail, which will appeal to fans of worldbuilding. The premise is a fresh take on the vampire-hunter trope in an inventive setting, and relies on strong musical and sound choices to heighten mood.

  • Great story, great heroine. Both relatable and fantastical with just enough mystery to keep the listener ready for more, but not frustrated between episode drops. Definitely worth listening.
