Resumen del Editor

A March of Kings takes us one step further on Thor's epic journey into manhood, as he begins to realize more about who he is and what his powers are, and as he embarks to become a warrior.

After he escapes from the dungeon, Thor is horrified to learn of another assassination attempt on King MacGil. When MacGil dies, the kingdom is set into turmoil. As everyone vies for the throne, King's Court is rifer than ever with its family dramas, power struggles, ambitions, jealousy, violence, and betrayal. An heir must be chosen from among the children, and the ancient Dynasty Sword, the source of all their power, will have a chance to be wielded by someone new. But all this might be upended: The murder weapon is recovered, and the noose tightens on finding the assassin. Simultaneously, the MacGils face a new threat from the McClouds, who are set to attack again from within the Ring.

Thor fights to win back Gwendolyn's love, but there may not be time: He is told to pack up, to prepare with his brothers-in-arms for The Hundred, a hundred grueling days of hell that all Legion members must survive. The Legion will have to cross the Canyon, beyond the protection of the Ring, into the Wilds, and set sail across the Tartuvian Sea for the Isle of Mist, said to be patrolled by a dragon, for their initiation into manhood.

Will they make it back? Will the Ring survive in their absence? And will Thor finally learn the secret of his destiny?

Reseñas de la Crítica

" The Sorcerer's Ring has all the ingredients for an instant success: plots, counterplots, mystery, valiant knights, and blossoming relationships replete with broken hearts, deception and betrayal. It will keep you entertained for hours, and will satisfy all ages. Recommended for the permanent library of all fantasy readers." ( Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos)

Audio Skips

many times there were many times during the performance that a bunch of the first words would be cut off. instead of saying she the audio would come out and make it sound like he or the first word or even the first sound of the main character's name would be cut off.

entertaining

so far I find the series of books entertaining. I don't think they're extremely well-written, and sometimes I cringe at the language used or the words used in a certain area, or the repetition, or any other number of things that just don't sit well with me. but, as I noted above, it is entertaining and overall the story is pretty good. Good character development and because this takes place over so many books you really can get into the details. I will definitely finish off the series.

Excellent interpretation of an incredible book

What does Wayne Farrell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Liveliness and nuances

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes:)

Any additional comments?

This is my first audible experience, always thought it would be artificial and did not consider it until now. It's easier. I was afraid I would not understand or miss content, as English is not my first language. I am pleasantly surprised to discover that it is an incredible experience; I can advance more into the story as I do not have to stop because my eyes get tired. Incredible experience, will continue it!:)

Loving all her books!!

I enjoy listening to her books. Descriptions of the environment, how a character is feeling, are all relatable.

In the spirit of A Song of Ice and Fire, great book. Once you listen to the first book, you'll be hooked.

awesome

Hard to put down

This book isn't the best written or the best edited, but for some reason I had a hard time puting it down. A page Turner! The narration is well done and reminds me of the story tellers from way back when.

Great book 2 - Best sci/fi/fantasy series ever!!!

What did you love best about A March of Kings?

This book picks up right where book 1 left off. If you liked book 1, you have to listen to this one. The story just keeps on Rock'n. So much happens in this book. It's so captivating and entertaining. It's just as good as the first book. This is the best series ever! It's a 10 book series. I hope audible produces audio books for the other 8 books soon.

Have you listened to any of Wayne Farrell’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Wayne Farrell is freak'n awesome! I love his reading of "A Quest of Heros", the first book in the Sorcerer's Ring series. He does such a good job. He's truly talented.
