    When the most important statesman of the 21st century disappears on Mars, the only hope of preventing interplanetary war lies in a ham actor's ability to impersonate the missing leader well enough to fool two worlds!

    Story

    In many professions there are "ranks" of achievement. Apprentice, Journeyman, Master, and Grand Master. However there is a rank that indicates the greatest of the skill, a "Wizard." This book demonstrates why Robert Heinlein is indeed a Wizard of the Pen. This magnificent book is a must read, and This audio title is so well read that there should be no passing it up.

    Sixteen-year-old Leinad thought he was a common farmer's son, nothing more. He wondered why his father had trained him for years to master the sword, not exactly a tool of the trade for farmers. But one tragic event initiates a world of revelation. Only then does he begin to understand his calling, a calling no other man in the entire kingdom of Arrethtrae can fulfill - a calling given him by the King himself.

    Story

    The Background & sound effects take away from not add too the story. In future volumes I can only hope that the mixer takes this into account and lowers the power of the FX or removes it entirely.
