Story
Dante Galand has cured the sickness that trapped him on the Plagued Islands. Now it's time to leave. And kill a priest. The target is Gladdic of Bressel. Gladdic, who executed Dante's friend, the pirate Captain Twill. Who all but enslaved the Plagued Islands. And whose visions of empire are far from over. But Gladdic is trained in both ether and nether - and a darker magic than Dante has ever known. He's the most dangerous foe Dante has faced. And if Dante falls, so will an entire kingdom.

Story
The White Tree (Book 1): In Mallon, the dark magic of the nether has been banned for centuries. Its users have been driven out or killed. Its secrets lost. But the holy book of the nethermancers has just been found by a boy named Dante. As he works to unlock the book's power, he's attacked in the street. The nethermancers aren't gone—and they want their book back. Caught between death cultists and the law, Dante fights for his life, aided by his growing skills and a brash bodyguard named Blays. Together, they're drawn into a centuries-old conflict that brings Mallon to the brink of civil war. Surviving won't be easy. But if they make it out alive, they'll step down the path to becoming two of the greatest warriors the world has ever known.

Story
Young Cally is an apprentice within the most unusual order of sorcerers in the known world: the only one that forbids its members from using their powers to kill. Despite his lowly status, Cally's chosen by the Master of the Order to join a delegation to see their allies the Lannovians. The meeting will be historic: 60 years ago, the Order's enemies attacked them with a host of demons, forcing the Order to trap the monsters inside their own citadel and seal it shut with impenetrable wards. The trick worked so well the Order hasn't been able to get it back open since.

In the realm of Isodoro, just two things stand between Alliance lands and the spears and muskets of the orcish hordes: the wizards of the Order and constant infighting amongst the orcs themselves. In the Alliance capital, young Wit has just been promoted from apprentice to full wizard - and saddled with the very unglamorous task of traveling to a distant iron mine to inspect it for fraud. 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.

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.

After the War of the Gods, the demons were cast out and fell to the world. Mankind was nearly eradicated by the seemingly unstoppable beasts, until the gods sent the great hero, Ramrowan, to save them. He united the tribes, gave them magic, and drove the demons into the sea. Ever since the land has belonged to man and the oceans have remained an uncrossable hell, leaving the continent of Lok isolated. It was prophesized that someday the demons would return, and only the descendants of Ramrowan would be able to defeat them. They became the first kings, and all men served those who were their only hope for survival.

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.

Summary
When Dante Galand was just a boy, his father, Larsin, sailed away to make his fortune. And never returned. Since then, Dante has become a great sorcerer. A ruler. A destroyer of kings. And he's just learned that his father is living on a forbidden island at the edge of the known world. Where he's dying of a mysterious plague.
In the company of his friend, the swordsman Blays, Dante travels to the island. There, his magic can do nothing for his father. As Dante and Blays quest for a cure - beset by strange beasts, angry spirits, and violent coastal raiders known as the Tauren - Dante falls sick, too. To save his father and himself, he'll have to rediscover the island's long-lost magic. But the hunt for its secrets leads Dante on a crash course with the Tauren - and island-wide civil war. And as he's away, an old threat begins to move against his homeland.
Set in a USA Today best-selling world, The Red Sea is the first in a trilogy of warfare, sorcery, and friendship through the darkest times.

A really good book
After reading The cycle of Arawyn I was really excited to find out that there was another trilogy in the making.
Continuing the story of Dante and Blays this book did not disappoint.
The narrator was excellent and I'm glad that he was the same narrator that narrated The cycle of Arawyn.
Can't wait for the next books to finish off this trilogy.

Not that great
Im not that impressed either with the story, the way in which the characters are drawn, or the authors command of the English language. I really took exception to the very 'modern' words he injected into the characters dialogue and the way he used the word 'shined' instead of shone. Ok if your doing shoes but not for describing light from the sun.

Listen AFTER the cycle of Arawn
Where does The Red Sea rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The best from the last 4 or five
Have you listened to any of Tim Gerard Reynolds’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Only picked it up because I saw TGR narrated it, have never been let down for the 4 or five different series so far
Any additional comments?
After a few duds words can't describe I happy I was when 20 mins into this book I realised it was a follow on from the cycle of Arawn. Enjoyed every second.

A great return to two of my favourite characters
After all the adventures we shared with Dante and Blaze I was excited to see what they'd do next.
My one gripe with this book is that we got a lot less from Blaze. In the last book we got a lot of character development from him and got to see things from his point of view and I really think he could have written some of the chapters from Blazes point of view.
Also Dante seems to have forgotten that he can perform elisions with the neither.
Overall this was a great book and I look forwards to the next instalment. As always the chemistry between the two main characters was absolutely great and I really liked all the new bad guys as well.

tiresome and long-winded...not for me
I love rich fantasy. I really was excited about this series but this book was slow and had uninteresting character development. There is an over amount of description of devices, trinkets, politics and customs that are not interesting nor have anything to do with plot advancement. For example, the author will spend a great deal of time to describe a poisonous flower; how and where it grows, how the poison works, etc., but the flower never comes in to play in the novel. Why?.... I almost gave up half way and should have.

Dante Galand is back and humorously gloomy again.
If you hadn’t listened to “The Cycle of Arawn”, then go listen to it first. It’s great, you can get the entire 66 hour trilogy for one credit on audible right now, and it introduces you to two of the most pessimistically funny fantasy adventure characters I have seen in a book series for a while; Dante Galand and his best buddy, Blays Buckler.
Anyway, this book “The Red Sea: The Cycle of Galand” is a follow up to all the chaos Dante and Blays caused, ether on purpose or by complete accident, to elevate Dante’s rise to power. So while the book is great on it’s own, it does have a lot of flash backs that are referencing the first trilogy. In this book Dante makes a half-hearted attempt to gain some closer with his childhood…only to have it completely backfire on him. It’s a bad day when you get trapped on a dangerous tropical island with an insane magical disease and full of backwater political ambitions that want to use you to for their own ends…or kill you. Am I right or am I right?
Tim Gerard Reynolds is back narrating Dante’s latest pickle after his spectacular performance with “The Cycle of Arawn” trilogy. Highly recommended audio book here, especially for those you love adventures where the protagonists half to improvise in order to survive.

Fantastic Sequel to The Cycle of Arawn!
Some months ago, I was introduced to Mr. Robertson's work via a one-credit download of The Cycle of Arawn. My initial elation from having downloaded over 60 hours of programming for a single credit was swiftly overtaken by the joy of having found a new favorite author/story/world of which to go on and on about to my friends.
The Red Sea continues in glorious fashion, much to my immense satisfaction! The Cycle of Galand is shaping up to be a wondrously exciting epic in its own right!

Could be a great story
This could be a great story but fell flat on its face. The conversations between characters are lacking and static with whimsical one liners that never had any real depth. The performance was sub par and put me to sleep several times. It was very monotone and very choppy. Not even going to give the second book a chance!

Excellent continuation of the series.
Where does The Red Sea rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
One of my favorites. After going through all 65 hours of the Cycle of Arawn I was left wanting more. This is the perfect follow up and I can't wait for the next book to come to Audible. This takes Dante and Blays off to new lands with lots of new characters and so many twists and turns it makes the story fly by.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Red Sea?
The final battle was great but it's really the back and forth between Blays and Dante that makes these stories great. Whatever situation they get in its always great to see what type of plans they come up with to try and make it work no matter what.
What does Tim Gerard Reynolds bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He has mastered these characters and this world. His narration is superb and draws you into the story. Between this and The Cycle of Arawn I've spent 80 plus hours listing and Tim always keeps your attention with his narration. I'm looking forward to the next book and couldn't imagine it with him as the narrator.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
You can never leave your past behind.
Any additional comments?
I don't think you need to read or listen to The Cycle of Arawn first to enjoy this book but I'd really recommend it. For an audible title The Cycle of Arawn is one of the best values in their library. 65 hours for one credit that left me wanting more. The Cycle of Galand delivers, it's so nice not to be let down by a sequel. To me this was on of the best of the series and I can't wait for the next book.

Slow
The story was okay but the reader is very slow with pauses that are way too long.

Suspenseful, riveting, great story!
What a great book! I had recently re-listened to Cycle of Arawn and was reacquainted with Dante Galand and Blaze Buckler. This story transitions smoothly from the previous trilogy to a completely new adventure that stands alone, but I would recommend listening to the previous trilogy first. Off the two go to find Dante's long lost father in parts unknown. The relationship between Dante and Blaze continues to evolve and is actually one of the highlights of this story. The storyline is tight, suspenseful, and brought to life with the sensational reading by Tim Gerard Reynolds, one of my favorites. As much as I enjoyed the Cycle of Arawn, this story is even better. The climax is extremely suspenseful with surprising twists, and sets up nicely for the next chapter of the Cycle of Galand. I can hardly wait.

Destined to become a Fantasy classic...
The fact that I've read the entire series 5 times now speaks volumes about this authors ability to weave a story that's captivating and unique enough to do so. Highly recommend the Cycle of Galand!

Great author with great characters
If you could sum up The Red Sea in three words, what would they be?
I usually do not write reviews but i was impressed with the quality of the book, I want to know more about the characters and what is next on the next book. Audible has the 3 previous books bundled together, i recommend you use 1 credit to download the first trilogy then listen to this book.
What does Tim Gerard Reynolds bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Great reader, he brings the characters to life
