Members Reviews:
Great new series!
I am going to have to continue this series as it is great. The writing is fantastic but there are a couple of things to complain about. There are a bunch of characters to keep track off. I mean a great big bunch. Second the book just ends. No resolution, no logical stopping point. It just ends. In fairness the authors warned about this at the beginning. So be aware that if you start this you are going to have to get all five books to have resolution. I suspect it will be worth it.
Really Terrific Performance!
Narration - Kevin Clay - Kick A$$!
Really amazing narration. This book has a ton of character's and he really had unique character voices for each one, without any of them sounding like over the top animated critters. Just Really a terrific job!
The story is really three stories in one all heading towards each other. Really creative worlds with really creative characters so there is a lot to take in and keep organized in your mind. If you are a fan of fantasy, I think you will love this start to what I'm sure will be an epic tale. It does end on a rather large cliffy so be prepared for that.
And, I can't say enough about how terrific this narrator is. Such an enjoyable listen!

A Great Start To An Epic Fantasy!
Book one was very entertaining, fast paced with lots of action; however it was the characters, and subplots that had me hooked.
There are three main groups of characters who embark on separate quest and each find themselves in different battles. Some of my favorite characters were Aidan, who was branded a coward but is becoming the leader and warrior he once was. The others in his group are looking to him to get them to safety. Gruesome (really loved the voice) is honorable and liked how he finally accepted Taracs, the necromancer, but not Taracs companion. Then there is the very vain Liam, he had me laughing out loud.
The narrator was A M A Z I N G! For a story with lots of characters, he did an awesome job of giving each character their own voice and accents. Kudos!
In the beginning of the story, the reader is advised this is book one of six and has lots of characters. Since it sounded like there was going to be a lot of detail, I went ahead and downloaded the Kindle version and actually listened and read certain parts of the book at the same time. For me, it makes the story more enjoyable, and I never felt lost or confused.

I really enjoyed listening to this story and will be on the lookout for the next book in the series.
Very Confusing
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
The story started out great! I'm still intrigued by "The coward's " story & his entourage.
