About this listen

Humanity has finally defeated the Dark Lord, but Morrick fought on the wrong side. Though he was a slave, he is branded a traitor and must earn the trust of new lords in order to return to his family, if they are still alive.... Now that their common enemy is dead, the nobles begin to forget old loyalties, and Queen Cathryn’s realm looks set to plunge into war once more. But there are older and more terrible powers dwelling within the forest, and when they are awakened, Morrick will decide who lives or dies....

An epic fantasy production enhanced by special effects. With music by Orchestralis, available at Orchestralis.net.

Loved it! Fantasy with a twist. Full of character and characters, charged with compassion and emotion, but plenty of action too. A very promising debut. I'm looking forward to the sequel with eagerness. Nigel Peever's narration draws you into what is an already fascinating concept.

Very very good production. The narrator was first class, voices were really easy to allocate to the characters. I liked the music and sound effects as I started to listen but have to admit that they started to distract me as I was trying to get involved in the twists of the story - I'm new to this genre and I think I need to listen again very soon to be able to take more in. I'm most impressed by the depth of this story.

Impressive!

I was given a free copy of this book and I'm leaving an honest and voluntary review.

So I'm gonna start with the sound effects.
Some the sound effects are a little overpowering, making it hard to catch what's being said.
The sound effects in general are really good, giving a nice atmosphere to the story.
The story itself is very entertaining and full of excitement, intrigue and much more.
Thd narration is as expected flawless, Nigel delivers a winning performance.

Well worth getting.
