Return of the Wizard King

De: Chad Corrie

Narrado por: Victor Bevine

Get in. Get out. Get paid. That was the plan. Instead, these reluctant mercenaries uncover some hidden agendas and ancient power struggles centuries in the making.

The last wizard king seeks a return to Tralodren after nearly eight centuries of exile. But doing so requires the manipulation of a band of mercenaries oblivious to his goals.

The gladiator sold his soul for revenge. The knight's a bigot. The dwarf only cares about regaining his honor. Even the wizardess seems too bookish for anyone’s good. But they’ve all been hired by a blind seer and his assistant to retrieve some forgotten knowledge long hidden away in a jungle-strangled ruin.

Betrayal, madness, adventure, and magic fill this first volume of the Wizard King Trilogy, introducing readers to a world rich in history, faith, and tales of adventure - of which this story is but one of many.

Story is basic but entertaining fantasy. Reader is a monotone bore.

The long and short of this book is a Dungeons and Dragons campaign narrated by a tired and/or inexperienced VA.
The story is basic and bare bones with a plot about as deep as a puddle and 9 different characters with little to no development. It’s entertaining enough for anyone looking for a pallet cleanser but nothing more than that.
BE WARNED! The VA has all of 2 voices and absolutely no sense of cadence, volume, or intensity leading to moments of confusion as to who is talking and very VERY flat action sequences.

Reads like a valiant attempt at someone’s first successful fantasy novel.

Racist propaganda

This book is one of the most racist concepts i have ever read. Worst part is nowhere does anyone learn racism is bad and instead it is reinforced again and again!

Good start

Pretty good book, I enjoyed it. Heavy midevil setting, leads in to the sequel very well. I am looking forward to the next book!
