About this listen

The Saga of Recluce chronicles the history of this world with world-building detail and an ingenious and disciplined magic system. L. E. Modesitt, Jr., returns to his longest and best-selling fantasy series with volume 19, The Mongrel Mage, which marks the beginning of a new story arc.

In the world of Recluce, powerful mages can wield two kinds of magic - the white of Chaos or the black of Order. Beltur, however, has talents no one dreamed of, talents not seen in hundreds of years that blend both magics.

On the run from a power-hungry white mage, Beltur is taken in by Order mages who set him on the path to discover and hone his own unique gifts and in the process find a home.

However, when the white mage he fled attempts to invade his new home, Beltur must hope his newfound power will be enough to save them all.

Good book!

Very much enjoyed, well written as always. Well performed, but it was a bit quiet.

Save your credits.

I bought this as a fan of Recluce but the audio recording is awful. I wish I had listened to a sample first. I am not sure if the audio is making the book sound awful or if it is just badly written.

More of the same formula

It’s ok.

Youth. Order. Chaos. Girl. Adventure. Betrayal. New country. Learn skills. War comes. Battles. Youth saves the day. Wins girl. The end.

Same plot different names but a well told story nonetheless.

Narration is robotic and takes a bit of getting used to. Despite that he does a reasonable job of distinguishing between characters.
