About this listen

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." (Arthur C. Clarke)

She didn't mean to use magic.

She didn't even know she had magic.

She just wanted to save her brother, who was dying in her arms.

Accused of using illegal magic, and sentenced to a cruel death at the hands of the city's guards, Hannah has no choice but to trust in the aid of a strange old man who wields unimaginable power.

The Founder has returned to correct the wrongs of unjust. But to do that, he needs Hannah, a young woman from the city slums. She has a key to unlocking a power even greater than his own - if she can only learn to trust herself and the magic flowing within her blood.

Restriction is a fantasy set in the far future, where magic and monsters ravage the land of Irth and only the strong survive.

Set on the foundation laid by the Kurtherian Gambit Series, Restriction tells an entirely new story in the Age of Magic - and of the heroes and villains who battle for control of its destiny.

Listen now and enter the Age of Magic....

Book started slowly but soon it became fastpaced and really interesting. Lots magic and fantasy elements. Narration was good. Great author notes. Will have to take another look at them and maybe try more books written in same universe😄

Really interesting fantasy audiobook

Excellent story and characters and a good kick off to a new story arc. Interesting ideas behind where magic comes from.
Character voices are good, but found the main narration voice slightly off-putting although I got used to it eventually and it was still clear.
The author notes weren't read by the authors as in some of the other books in KGU but again the accent/voice used by Kate was much more pleasant than the main book.
The notes themselves were interesting and funny and a nice round out to the book although it does end with rather a lot of cliffhangers; definitely a part 1 of many type book. I like that these books are like a TV series with episodes and not too long to wait for the next one.
I have read and listened to the main KGU series but I may only read the rest of the series rather than listen to it, but I look forward to enjoying it regardless of the medium.

Great story standalone or as part of KGU

the base books/story are great but this is better...
