Story
Long ago, the world fell into twilight, when the great empires of old consumed each other in sorcerous cataclysms. In the south, the Star Towers fell, swallowed by the sea, while the black glaciers descended upon the northern holdfasts, entombing the cities of Min-Ceruth in ice and sorcery. Then from the ancient empire of Menekar, the paladins of Ama came, putting every surviving sorcerer to the sword and cleansing their taint from the land. The pulse of magic slowed, fading like the heartbeat of a dying man. But after a thousand years, it has begun to quicken again.

Story
The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite - a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses.

Worse yet, he's partnered with Wa'llach, a drunken dwarven prisoner who's killed more people than most plagues. Yet those skills are about to become very handy.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

A really good book

Summary
Three epic books. Fifty-plus hours filled with magic, war, myth, and characters that leap to life.
Bedel and Raynt, two powerful mages known as Essencers, have dedicated their lives to holding back the tide of the Dark Sorceress Jocina. After her defeat thousands of years ago, she is desperate to return and drown the world in darkness once and for all. Her time has come.
Priestess A’banna has spent her young life in service to the Sorceress. But when she is commanded to sacrifice a living being in Jocina's name, her faith breaks. She flees into the waiting arms of the Essencers.
Bedel and Raynt believe A’banna may hold the keys to defeating Jocina once and for all, and fight to protect her at all costs. However, ending a millennium of struggle isn't so easy.
Jocina has been busy. Building allies. Corrupting rulers. Growing her dark and powerful army. And now, her coalition threatens all the realm with a war to end all wars.
It will take more than magic and Essencers to stop her. Bedel, Raynt, and A’banna will need to bring the kingdoms together. Otherwise, Jocina will finally have her revenge.
Buy this special edition box set to experience a sweeping epic fantasy series suitable for all ages. Fans of J.R.R. Tolkien and Brandon Sanderson will love this vividly imagined and detailed world.

Confusing nonsence
Stuck with it for 10 hours so far, it’s just nonsense. Incoherent and inconsistent world, none of it makes sense, feels like I’ve been thrust into the middle of what’s trying to be an established epic and I have no idea what’s going on, who the characters are and what the point of the whole thing is. Each scene is just leaving me more confused and bewildered. Listened to the narrator before and quite like him, but there’s just something about how he wraps his voice around the awkward and random made up words that really grates this time...

Gave it a flyer, expect to return it.
I'm sure that some potential listeners will like this one. I'm also pretty sure that this isn't going to work out for me 11 chapters in.
The first book does not start out as a study in character development, descriptive writing, or sophisticated plot development. Instead I consider this to be a joined series of events that are intended to be intensely emotional - only some of which make any sense when you think about them. And I find that the story seems to be rather derivative.
But while we're lacking some things that I like in books, there is therefore a lot of actions and events packed into these pages in a tight bundle. Some readers or listeners will like this.
Review to be updated a little further in. But let me emphasize to the person considering this bundle - this ain't a Galaxy Outlaws, let alone a hidden Stormlight, Spellmonger, or Lightbringer. At best, it's striking me as pulp.
Tim Gerard Reynolds does a good job, as always.

Old School in the best way
Where has this author been hiding? I read book one individually, and then this... geez. The series is so good. Reminds me of older style fantasy but with modern writing and characters. The cover does a vivid job of showing me the world and it accurately displays the feel of the books. Reynolds did an amazing narration job.

Excellent Narration
The narration is excellent. Seriously, one of the best matches of narration to subject matter I have ever heard. I am about 5 1/2 hours into the book so far. The story so far is good as well, both the characters and their world described in detail and the plot coming fast and steady. There seems so far to be a good balance of depth, detail, and story advancement; there has been only one spot so far where I felt the details just went on too long, and for such a long book that is a good sign.

Not even Tim Gerard Reynolds could save it
I'm returning this one. Tim Gerard Reynolds does his best but it just can't save this derivative story.
It is like a "best of" compilation from other writers. A lot seems to be almost directly lifted from The Wheel of Time series.
And, despite a good performance, on multiple occasions we get to hear Mr. Reynolds re-read a passage because the editor didn't do their job.
Skip this one and re-listen to some Brandon Sanderson instead.

Missing something
First of all- this book wouldn’t have been purchased if it wasn’t for Reynolds narrating. But despite his best effort- I can’t get into the book. Like other listeners have stated, I looked towards a website that could help me understand what I may be missing. However I really feel like there should be a prequel that I’m missing.
So after lots of effort trying to like this book, it’s getting shelved.

Intriguing Sci-Fantasy with Potential
High Points: Narrator Tim Gerard Reynolds does an absolutely fantastic job, as always. There is a reason he makes my top 5 audiobook narrators. The plot is interesting and does not stick to purely Western European fantasy tropes and mythologies. A diverse set of characters and the sense that nobody is safe, which adds to the buy-in on the story. A nice blend of sci-fi and fantasy aspects, which I won't spoil here.
Low Points: There are times the exposition drags and the end is not a "the current conflict is resolved, but life goes on", but instead feels like this is NOT the Full Series that it is advertised to be. Given some of the sci-fi aspects, it can be taken as the complete series, but it really needs at least one more book to bring it to a more satisfactory conclusion.
Overall: Decent plot and characters, intriguing blend of sci-fi, fantasy and mythologies and excellent narration. Enjoyable, but leaves you wanting more.

Sorry Mr. Smith but dang
The beginning is so rapid fire but slow at the same time, I am struggling to keep up or even stay entertained . I listen to 100 books a year while driving in circles all day and I have never just spaced out and realized I missed 2 entire chapters. Tim is monotonous at times as I have heard many of his works but it's the story that's just bleh. I have had to relisten to the first 10 chapters twice and I still cannot fall into the story. It's sad when driving a tractor at 1 mph in circles for 14 hours is more entertaining than an audiobook
