Publisher's summary

The prequel to The Ronin Saga - the best-selling epic fantasy series.

Legends uncovers the origin of the Ronin and the final breaking. Kail, leader of the Ronin and threader of wind, along with his eight elemental brothers and sisters have been betrayed. On the cusp of defeat, they go to the Hall of Winds, to the council chamber to discover who in their inner circle is the cursed traitor...Only to discover the darkness is much closer than they ever imagined.

Fans of the series will delight in seeing the world of Farhaven at its height and ultimate downfall, and revel in the Ronin (Gray, Ayva and Darius') beginning..."

Great story, gray narration!

Michael Kramer is one of the best in the business. It’s not hard to absolutely love any narration he does. The story itself is concise, well written and exciting. Of the three novellas released, I believe that this one is my favorite - just so cool to see all the Ronin in all of their glory! Looking forward to getting book 3 in audiobook!

Loved It

This a a great short story into the beginning of the series. I love reading book about sword fighting, magic, dragons, and of old world world times. Can't wait to read the next in this series.

Great addition to a fantastic series

What a fun nugget of a story to add some additional life to this fantastic series. The narration is fantastic (Wolf somehow gets all my favorite narrators!) and the story helps add some color to the world

Just a quick journey into a world of a different world where a white knight,,not really a white knight. only a belief in good versions of my night in shining armor. Seek out the belief of your own knight be it good or bad.

Cool prequel but fans of Ronin Saga beware of narrator change!

I have read the saga so far as well as the short stories. To introduce a friend to the series we binged the audiobooks on a the road. I have to say that although Michael Kramer is a great narrator in his own right he doesn’t hold a candle to Tim Gerard Reynolds. If you are listening to the short stories after starting the Ronin Saga I recommend skipping the short story audio versions. Narrator changes in a series (even for prequels and sub stories from different perspectives) are jarring. I usually spend the first hour or two trying to get used to the new narrators pronunciation and flow. It’s probably an easier transition if you don’t binge them like I did on audio. However, good luck trying not binging this series when TGR is narrating. Matt Wolf is awesome. Looking forward to book 4.
