Great story

I am a big fan since I was a kid. Best book in this series for me. For some this broad description lt can be too much l but for me to imagine it all step after step it's the best part.

A great third in the saga

It’s recommend to read/listen to the recluse saga in the order of when it was published and not chronological order and I couldn’t agree more. I read the magic of recluse as a teenager then a few more times over the years before finally getting into audible now I’m slowly making my way through the series and it’s great!
