Publisher's summary

Includes all five books of The Rhenwars Saga!

“A richly realized and immersive world” (Ed McDonald, author of Blackwing)

The Well of Tears was created to harness the power of the Netherworld to prevent a magical apocalypse. Now Darien Lauchlin is the last surviving mage capable of reversing the destruction the Well unleashed. Darien will be forced to sacrifice everything of himself and everyone around him—all to preserve a nation of people who despise him.

The Rhenwars Saga is a sprawling epic set in a morally gray world where there is no clear distinction between hero and villain.

Download this special edition collection to experience epic battles, flawed heroes, and a brutal struggle where the triumph of good over evil is never guaranteed.

If you enjoy the dark, sprawling world of Steven Erikson, the awe-inspiring magic of The Wheel of Time, and the compelling antiheroes of C.S. Friedman, then you’ll love The Rhenwars Saga.

Very Dark Fantasy

I think ML Spencer is an outstanding author but, this series was way too dark for my liking. I even had to take a break and listen to something a little more uplifting and then come back to finish it. I was a little disappointed in the overall ending for the different characters, I guess I wanted SOMETHING to work out. I guess I was looking for that happily ever after, that did not happen. I would have to think hard to see if I wanted to read/listen to another book by Ms. Spencer. I have not listened to any of her other series so, some of the others may not be as dark.

Be prepared to keep the earbuds in

Spencer certainly knows how to write epic fantasy. The Rhenwars Saga is complete with good defending itself from evil, people making the ultimate sacrifices to defend others, magic and demons. These characters capture your interest very quickly and Simon Wright is amazing with his performance.

Great epic fantasy

I loved this series of books and was grateful to receive a free copy of the audio book. The narration brought the story to life and the characters were very well done and believable.
This is an epic dark story of good vs evil with strong character development and a twisting plot. Dive in and enjoy!

Outstanding dark fantasy

I came to Rhenwars after reading Spencer's phenomenal Dragon Mage. While it's tonally quite different, being much more of a grimdark story of revenge rather than high fantasy, it still has the outstanding world building, character development, and page-turning urgency I found in Dragon Mage.

Simon's narration is phenomenal. He's very easy to listen to and can really color the narrative emotionally.

Highly recommended all around!

Bad audio.

Story has several chapters with audio overlapping. Makes listening impossible. Wish someone would have actually checked it before uploading it to be purchased.

This is a wonderful series!

I have read all of the books in this series and they are full of adventure. The storylines and characters will pull you in. I enjoyed the audiobooks and hearing the different characters' perspectives. I highly recommend this series!

Good but confusing story.

I loved the series but in this audiobook for the second book chapters 24 & 25 are messed up. Had to skip 30 minutes of the book because there’s 2 readings mixed together. Just truly unprofessional that this series has been out for years but this is still here.

Good story

Not to bad. It’s a good fantasy story but not as captivating as I wanted it to be.
