About this listen

Experience the first book in the Maztica Trilogy by Douglas Niles - set in Maztica, the exotic corner of the world of Forgotten Realms.

Just as Erix a slave girl learns of a great destiny laid upon her by the gods themselves, across the sea, a fateful mission of exploration embarks. The explorers, a legion of seasoned mercenaries, sail westward to discover a land of primitive savagery mixed with high culture, of brutal, bloodthirsty gods and lavish treasures. Under the banner of their vigilant god, Helm, the legion claims these lands for their own. Only as Erix sees her land invaded by these strangers, when her world itself starts to collapse around her, is her startling destiny revealed.

Not a patch on some of the other forgotten realms novels. I found the characters to be flat and uninspiring, the story seems to lurch along and although the narrator appears to be doing his best with the source material I feel it fails to engage me on any level.
Edit....I ended up listening to it all, after all I'd paid for it and all I can say is I'm surprised WOTC haven't pulled this from sale due to the white saviour fantasy vibes threaded all through it

Just not engaging
