Chaosbound

The Eighth Book of the Runelords

By: David Farland

Narrated by: Ray Porter

The world of the Runelords has been combined by magic with another one parallel it, the beginning of a process that may unify all worlds into the one true world.

This story picks up after the events of The Wyrmling Horde and follows two of Farland’s well-known heroes, Borenson and Myrrima, on a quest to save their devastated land and the people of the new world from certain destruction. But the land is not the only thing that has been altered forever: In the change, Borenson has merged with a mighty and monstrous creature from the other world, Aaath Ulber.

He begins to change, becoming a berserker warrior with a huge new body. Thousands have died. Lands have sunk below the sea and, elsewhere, risen from it. And the supernatural rulers of the world are part of a universal evil yet play a byzantine game of dark power politics among themselves - a game in which Aaath Ulber is now the most significant pawn….

Absolutely love this series!!!

Narrator is perfect, on point. Well-planned, intricately detailed characters who become as well known to you as a close friend. Many, many hours of epic listening.

now I have to hear the next one

the story was gripping and of course to be continued. it was captivating kept me on the edge of my seat.

Great but for one annoying thing...

I know I'm just being a sticker, and it's a character flaw of mine, but when authors use decimated when they mean obliterated just bugs me. It wouldn't be so annoying but he does it over and over and over!

Gets better and better

The great story just keeps getting better and better with every book in the series.

Too over the top for its own good

I would actually give the story 3.5 stars. It keeps your interest, but the incredibly overwhelming odds the protagonists constantly face in everything they do gets old fast. Forget easy, nothing they face is even of average challenge level. Other than that, it's a good tale except for.the ending which seemed a little too abrupt.

Can't wait for the next book!

I listened to all the Runelords books and can't wait for the continuation. So excited. I love the story, and the performance. I'm a superfan

long waiting the next and final installment!

everything has been awesome about this series. the next audio book is now set to release for 2026 after being postponed more than a few times, been patiently waiting now I'm getting impatient lol. it's been there for pre order for a few years

Unexpected direction

I was hoping for things to wrap up so if the cliffhangers from the last book but we get a completely new plot line. That being said, the plot line is really good and the characters are familiar so after the initial disappointment of things not getting resolved, I sat back and enjoyed the story. Ray Porter provides excellent narration.

What will I do now!?

I am so caught up in this series, I had no idea what I was getting into when I started, the narration, the characters, the “Power!” In my sir Borenson (excuse misspelling) voice attempt ahaha I just noticed 13 minutes left and I am so scared to see if I will find anything as good to continue on living Ahahahha really great series! I will have to listen again

Not to be missed. A great tale.

Such a great saga in high fantasy. Not to be missed. The performance was top-tier, and the characters and plot unforgettable.
