Summary

Nothing will be as it was. Cities will crumble to ash. Ashen wastes will become lush and fertile. Rulers will serve, and servants will rule.

Pentamuria, the world of five kingdoms, is in a time of change. The power of the nobles and mages is threatened. War is upon them, although they do not know yet when or with whom. Thus, the mages are gathering in their capital, Ringwall, to prepare together against any possible enemy.

At this time, the orphan boy Nill is found by the Druids. He possesses considerable magical skills. So he is taken to Ringwall, where he is to be trained in the magical arts alongside his fellow students. Nill, who is an outsider, shows no respect for the traditions of the magical world, and challenges the ways of the mages.

Soon this mages start to ask themselves: Could this powerful stranger bring the foretold end of their reign?

If yes, Nill has to be dealt with. By whatever means....

Different and interesting

love the narrator, listen to him a lot. the story feels to have a somewhat predictable plot but with enough differences to keep your interest.

A brilliant start

One of the best series I’ve listened to in a while. The magic system is original and the characters are believable. Not a dull moment and with derek perkins’ narration it’s a must read.

Really enjoyable and amazing narrator

I enjoyed the book. It could be a bit slow but it’s intriguing and I am looking forward to the next book in the series to find out what’s next in Nills journey.

Highly Recommended for magic-lovers

Gripping from start to finish. Poetically written with such thoughtful choices of words unlike any other story I've read or heard. Was a joy to listen to.

Wow... Long rule Pentamuria...

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Hell yer

Any additional comments?

I loved this book, great characters that I became very invested with, really nice pace, and the author definitely left me wishing that the second book was out already. Yes its a little Harry Potter, but then all book since those films of that type are compared to those films, and for me this doesn't detract at all from the story. Derek Perkins is as always just so cool with his character voices.

Overall I would highly recommend this book.

Solid fantasy book

So far the story isn't any form of groundbreaking. But it seems like a good start to a chosen one story.

The only question I have, is the chosen one of what?

Excellent!

I am so glad to have stumbled across this author. This is the first book of the series and I enjoyed every second of it. A fantasy masterpiece. I have downloaded the second novel straight away and I’m hoping there are many more. I have listened to other books by the same narrator and this is just another gem. So easy to get lost in the fantasy world of magic. I highly recommend this story.
