Summary

The mysterious, indomitable warrior? Ruthless criminal overlord? The Riel'gesh - mythical demigod? Dedicated friend and protector?

Equipped with skills far beyond those of the outworlders, Rezkin has been suddenly thrust into a foreign world. The young warrior clings to his only known purpose as he continues his search for any information about his identity and the reason for his existence.

While the hardened warrior scorns both dueling and tournaments, he believes some of the answers he seeks may be found at the King's Tournament, the greatest dueling championship in all of the kingdoms. As he searches for the elusive Striker Farson, who may be the only person alive who holds the clues, the young warrior and his friends embark on a journey fraught with danger, mystery, and intrigue.

Amid fears of the kingdom's economic collapse, rumors of an eminent military draft, and the machinations of a mad, tyrannical king, a new revelation threatens to upend all the warrior's plans.

Could not stop listening. One of the best I've listened to in a long time. Bring on book 3 ASAP.

Best book I have come across in a long time.

Excellent plot which was well read. Can't wait for book 3. When is it going to be released?

Amazing my favourite audiobook or book!

I am an avid reader and listener of books mostly sci-fi and fantasy over the last twenty years I have read at least 100 such novels, mostly I read books from top 100 lists.

I downloaded this on a whim and had never heard of it, it was simply an Audible recommendation. The is my favourite audiobook so far and probably my favourite book. I really mean the series so far when I refer to this "book".

The humour around the first rule is amazing, refreshing and for me changes the Fantasy genre into something new just as I was finally beginning to tire of it believing I was beginning to see too many repeating themes.

I used audiobooks to help me sleep but I'm exhausted after power listening to these two books in one week. Can not wait for book 3 crack on Kel, really hoping this is a never ending saga akin to the Wheel of Time because I can not get enough!

Really enjoyed it

Really liking the story. It's a little out there but that's fantasy right?

The narrator is 99% perfect. He just over does the whiney characters, and after a while it grates on you. Other than that he is brilliant.

A cut above the rest

I'm getting a little tired of the talented young man who gathers around him a group of trusty friends and then sets on a quest for glory against seemingly unbeatable odds. Despite that, I really enjoyed this. Couldn't say why, just well written and we'll performed.

Much better than the first

Great new characters who's personalities are better established as time goes on
Less cringey 'friend' logic which was my main complaint from the first book
And Alot more personality from rezkin. Which is a great welcome

Utterly fantastic!!

Absolutely loved it. A total binge listen. It’s 2am and I’m currently downloading book 3. The characters have amazing depth and the story line just doesn’t let up. Awesome
