Summary

Strong-willed and full of hope, Leo strives to learn more of the magic he has read so much about. He's heard of invisible links in his world, and hidden rifts to other realms filled with creatures and stones of power. But Leo's family is stuck in an impoverished city. He performs backbreaking farm work beside his older brother, a rebellious and cunning thief, but nonetheless a brother whom Leo would trust with his life. Their father takes care of them as best he can, but a dangerous secret has weighed heavily on him for years. He won't be able to keep it hidden much longer.

Leo believes everything will change for the better when he begins work as a bookbinder and finally leaves the dreadful farm. He can apply for apprenticeship to the Bookbinding Guild upon his soon-approaching birthday.

Everything will change, but in ways their family would never expect. It all begins when Leo's brother steals something that he should've left alone.

Great fantasy tale

Generally a good story, easy to invest in the characters and to follow. Part one of three.

A gem for a freebie

Nicely written, characters well developing. Not many surprises, as it is a classic fantasy saga, with boys coming of age, monsters, injustice, fights and so on... Off to the next one. Narration is ok. I understand Simon Vance is a favourite by many, but I never managed to like him. Even if this one is one of his best narrations, not overdramatized, which is usually his signature.

Horrendous pacing.

For a 10 hour listen it's surprising how little happens. The narration is good. I assume there is going to be massive time skips in future books, seeing as the characters are very young children. Maybe the author will describe their lives one day at a time like in this awfully paced book.

this is 100% a story building book. it does a good job introducing the main characters and there day to day struggles and ends as it all kicks off. all in all its a good book and its got me more than ready for part two
