The Mongoliad: The Foreworld Saga, Book 1

By: Neal Stephenson, Erik Bear, Greg Bear, Joseph Brassey, Nicole Galland, Cooper Moo, Mark Teppo

Narrated by: Luke Daniels

In the late 19th century, a mysterious group of English martial arts aficionados provided Sir Richard F. Burton, well-known expert on exotic languages and historical swordsmanship, a collection of long-lost manuscripts to translate. Burton’s work was subsequently misplaced, only to be discovered by a team of amateur archaeologists in the ruins of a mansion in Treiste.

From Burton's translations and the original source material, the epic tale of The Mongoliad was recreated. The story chronicles the journey of a small band of warriors and mystics as they fight to save Europe from the Mongol invasion of the thirteenth century. It also exposes the secret workings of powerful clandestine societies that have been driving world events for millennia.

This fascinating and enthralling first novel in The Mongoliad trilogy fuses historical events with a gripping fictional narrative. Co-written by Neal Stephenson, Greg Bear, E. D. deBirmingham, Mark Teppo, Joseph Brassey, Erik Bear, and Cooper Moo, The Mongoliad: Book One is an unforgettable epic.

What did you like best about this story?

The enter tangled characters an events

What about Luke Daniels’s performance did you like?

Everything not many can give each character such life to the point u develops honest emotiomal connections to every person in the story. Truthfully his performances in other books is the reason I finally chose this story but I became hooked to the story

Who was the most memorable character of The Mongoliad and why?

I loved so many too many to list

Great!

Enjoyable from start to finish. The authors did a great job tying fiction with fact, and the narrator is incredible.

Very good

Enjoyed the story and the narration was excellent! I always enjoy Luke Daniels' work and intricacies to make the story and characters come to life!

Not Neal Stephenson

Don't come looking for Stephenson style. This is a collaboration, and not a great one. Luke Daniels does what he can, but I can't recommend this.

Well done!
