Forsworn

The Forsworn Oath, Book 1

De: David Estes

Narrado por: Tim Gerard Reynolds

Do not fear the shadows, but what lives inside them.

When Ludo Vica was only eight years old, he lost his twin brother and his eye when a horrific fire turned his village to ash. The last thing he remembers is a dark figure, wreathed in flames, stalking toward his childhood home. His brother, Gado, was still inside. Then came the explosion, the burning pain where his eye should've been, followed by blessed oblivion.

The man deemed responsible for it all was Cainan, a dark sorcerer known as the Fire Eater, who was brought to justice and imprisoned in the legendary fortress known as Comman Dur. In the two decades that have passed since that fateful night, Ludo's every waking moment has been focused on the only thing he has left to live for: revenge. So when the Fire Eater escapes, Ludo is determined to hunt him down and avenge his brother's death, a path that leads him into the shadows and mysteries of Lostwood.

What awaits him in the shadows will change everything.

Fans of A Game of Thrones, The Stormlight Archives, The Kingfall Histories, and The Fatemarked Epic will enjoy The Forsworn Oath.

reader is awaesome.

the chapters jump around in time lines, 20 years h4, 78 years in future, it is hard to keep the storyline straight.

Fantastic

This is a great story. The writing is great strong characters and character building. Great banter, original magic system. TGR brings this story to life.

Very detailed characters. Great voice actor's range of voices. a lot of characters backgrounds to remember

Not having the other books on audible. It ruined the whole experience. hopefully I don't have to wait years before it's coming out on Audible.

I love epic story

I love how it continues from another audio book by the same author and I really like this narrator. I love introduction it pulled me in.

Very good story telling.

My favorite book before this one was Dune. I rille like the depth of the book. How the caricatures were developed. Just told you enough at the end to clear most stuff up. But still left enough untold to leave a cliffhanger so you would want more. Rille in joyed it. I can’t wait for the next book.

As excellent as David Estes's other books.

It takes place in the same world of Fatemarked and Kingfall, after the events there. There are some mentions of characters from Kingfall but doesn't go into details about them.

captivating

Wishing the rest of the books were available! hope to purchase them assp. listening to book one again!

It was captivating, was sad I couldnt buy the whole series right now.

ALL around decent book, the way it tells the story is kinda M Night Shyamalan style. U learn stuff out of order but the story is solid. A great start to what I expect to be a great series

I enjoyed on how the plot and characters developed.

The performance enhanced the story. Mr. Reynolds is definitely your best actor. Always enjoy his work.

Great world building

Lots of twists and turns with phenomenal narration! Estes and Reynold are great together. Sorry to find out book 2 is not available in Audio.
