Ironbound

A Progression Fantasy Epic

De: Andrew Givler

Narrado por: Ralph Lister

An action-packed progression fantasy epic from Andrew Givler, bestselling author of Soul Fraud.

In the Iron Empire, only the strongest are given a chance to Ascend.

As long as he can remember, Castor has wanted nothing more than to fuse with a Cor Heart. Made from an otherworldly metal, it would give him the ability to bind a Symbol and manipulate the elements.

The day of trial has finally arrived—a chance for Castor to prove his worth. Only after winning the Empress’ blessing can he begin his life of adventure.

When his chance is interrupted by a vicious attack, he finds his home in ruins and his family in mortal peril.

Conscripted into the Legions, bound to a Symbol he never wanted, Castor must survive the Iron City, his enemies in the frozen North, and clandestine traitors within the rusting Empire itself.

But more than anything, he wants revenge against those who took everything from him.

This is the first step of the rise of the Ironbound.

Don't miss the start of this adrenaline-fueled progression fantasy epic from Andrew Givler, bestselling author of Soul Fraud, and the creator of Sigils, a Youtube channel with 1.4+ Million Subscribers. It's perfect for fans of Arcane Ascension, Red Rising, and Will of the Many.

Amazing world building

Andrew is becoming on of my favorite authors! His character depth and world building truly take me into the story and leaving me feeling as if I’m with the characters. Another excellent job, definitely recommend to anyone interested in the genre and to anyone looking to try something new!!

different but perfect

I have read all of the book and the debt collection and though I love that series this book is so much better both because of the authors improvement through make debt collection and because of the different kind and setting of the story

Amazing

this is definitely my favorite book by this author. the mc is smart and capable something i love as I don't like when mc are complete idiots

Doesn't waste my time being too bogged down in descriptive writing.

First book so can't complain much about unfinished parts of the story when the author clearly represents these reveals to be later.

World building done well a decent treatment for Characters and the author clearly was not treating the main character and supporting characters with trite and silly qualities so readily ruining a story of these themes. And the cover art is nice for that as well

Cool Romanesque world

Fun book with some great world building. I enjoyed the magic system but we got a good chunk of the book with no system at all. I liked the MC a lot. I wish he wasn’t in captivity so much though. The story was interesting and the ending was a fun which makes me look forward to the next book. The narrator did a great job.

Great writing

Some really good emotional chapters that are well written. I’m ready to join the legion and get revenge with these characters. Wow

The best story and narrative i have heard in years.

A story of vengeance and resilience, truly remarkable. My only regret is that there is not yet another book.

amazing!!!

most similar thing to red rising I have ever read. a tour de force of action. this is progression fantasy done right!!!

Do you self a favor spend the credit

This is a very good book with a interesting magic system. don't break any promises and enjoy

If you enjoy Pierce Brown you'll love this.

This was a wonderful fantasy story, with the author's style and hte performers reading of it reminding me of the Red Rising series. There were so many twists and turns that I never really knew where this was going to end. I can't wait for the next book in the series to see where it's all going to go!
