A Man Rides Through

Volume II of Mordant's Need

De: Stephen R. Donaldson

Narrado por: Scott Brick

In The Mirror of Her Dreams, the dazzling first volume of Mordant’s Need, New York Times best-selling author Stephen R. Donaldson introduced us to the richly imagined world of Mordant, where mirrors are magical portals into places of beauty and terror. Now, with A Man Rides Through, Donaldson brings the story of Terisa Morgan to an unforgettable conclusion.

Aided by the powerful magic of Vagel, the evil Arch-Imager, the merciless armies are marching against the kingdom of Mordant. In its hour of greatest need, two unlikely champions emerge. One is Geraden, whose inability to master the simplest skills of Imagery has made him a laughingstock. The other is Terisa Morgan, transferred to Mordant from a Manhattan apartment by Geraden’s faulty magic. Together, Geraden and Terisa discover undreamed-of talents within themselves—talents that make them more than a match for any Imager... including Vagel himself.

Unfortunately, those talents also mark them for death. Branded as traitors, they are forced to flee the castle for their lives. Now all but defenseless in a war-torn countryside ravaged by the vilest horrors Imagery can spawn, Geraden and Terisa must put aside past failures and find the courage to embrace their powers—and their love—before Vagel can spring his final trap.

PLEASE NOTE: A Man Rides Through: Volume II of Mordant's Need opens with Book Three, as it continues the story begun in The Mirror of Her Dreams: Volume I of Mordant's Need.

Imaginative and epic

A master storyteller with the perfect narrator. Well paced and satisfying. The blending of the two worlds is novel

Book 2, and Still my favorite fantasy series

Book 2 of Mordant's Need, and a great ending to my favorite book series!

Again Mr. Brick narrates and I don't hate it!

Imagination required to produce this is incredible!

As always Stephen Donaldson outdoes himself. Excellent story, characters and narration making it easy listening and exciting at the same time

Even Better the second time

I read these books several years ago and thoroughly enjoyed them. I loved the Audible version. It brought Donaldson"s wonderful writing to life again. I would highly recommend the Mordant's Need books to any fantasy reader, or to anyone who just loves a good story excellently told.

Writing from a master

It is clear to me that many may not like Stephen R. Donaldson’s writing. However, it is also clear to me that he is of the masters of Sci-Fi/Fantasy. He carries the ebb and flow that all great stories should have and masterfully delivers an epic that is also in part, a romance.

Scott Brick, the orator, is equally as distinguished in his own right. Some books are better to read while others are better to hear read. If you see Scott Brick’s name, you will not be disappointed with his telling of the story.
