Acerca de esta escucha
The stakes are higher than ever in The Challenger, the second book in the Contender YA trilogy by the New York Times best-selling author of the Summoner series, Taran Matharu.
The first battle is over, but the Game is just beginning....
Cade Carter and his friends have survived the qualifying round of the mysterious overlords' twisted games, decimated by the loss of so many of their comrades during the fight. But they have no time to mourn, for the next round of trials is about to begin.
When the group discovers that their next foe will be even more ferocious than the last, Cade leads them on a quest out into their strange new world to find anything that might give them an edge. But what they find in the wilds could prove to be even more dangerous than the impending battle....
The stakes are higher than ever in this thrilling sequel to The Chosen.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

They have always scared him in the past - the Rangers, with their dark cloaks and shadowy ways. The villagers believe the Rangers practice magic that makes them invisible to ordinary people. And now 15-year-old Will, always small for his age, has been chosen as a Ranger's apprentice. What he doesn't yet realize is that the Rangers are the protectors of the kingdom. Highly trained in the skills of battle and surveillance, they fight the battles before the battles reach the people. And as Will is about to learn, there is a large battle brewing.

Keras Selyrian is already well on the way to cutting his name into the annals of legend. He’s fought false divinities, thieving sorcerers, and corrupt demigods - and left them defeated in his wake. But he’s a long way from home, and Kaldwyn offers a different brand of danger than he’s used to. He’s already got a sword of unfathomable power, but it’s damaged and leaking world-annihilating mana, so he’s in the market for a new one. Possibly six. The more the better, really.

Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent".

A Captivating Masterpiece.
A must read, perfectly crafted masterpiece by Taran Matharu.
As a fan of the unique nature and untapped expanse that is the Summoner series, Taran Matharu shows he has true vision.
This series has me hooked from start to finish on a non stop thrillride.
the narrator Pat Young brings this story to life as you truly feel the voice of the characters and the emotions they feel through the narrative.
the use of historical mysterious events isn't unique to the fantasy genre but I have never seen it used so effectively.
Thats not all!
The use of mental and fisical illnesses, Racism, class systems of upper and lower class citizens, Slavery, Brain over brawn, skill over power, experience and courage in the face of true fear and uncertainty. the use of time jumps between past and present and the ever present ticking of the clock makes you feel the urgency!
This is something special. The Contender series is amazing.
Its like the Hunger Games, Jurassic Park and the Odyssey all got thrown into a blender and then perfectly mixed to create something new and extraordinary that stands all on its own.
