Resumen del Editor

Connor Magnuson is going to conquer Death itself.

A penniless drifter, Connor has survived the last eight years alone in a cursed woodland teeming with monsters that eat grown men whole. Shunned, forgotten, and with nowhere else to go, he looks death in the eye every night and draws his sword to face it. The forest, after all, burned the fear out of him long ago.

Still, it hasn't hardened the last shreds of his heart quite yet. When Connor hears a mysterious girl scream in the middle of nowhere, he ends up in a brutal battle that nearly costs him his life. His bravery does not go unrewarded, and in the aftermath of the fight, he finds himself bonded to the most infamous enchantment the world has ever seen: the Wraith King. The undead abomination grants him godlike power, but legendary magic always comes with a cost. Even as his fellow outcasts flock to him for help, Connor is branded as an outlaw. Kings and lords alike know where the wraith has gone, and they'll slit his throat to take it from him. To them, a peasant like Connor is unworthy. He's a mistake to be corrected, and nothing more.

But Connor is no ordinary man, and he'll drag those hunters to hell with him if that's what it takes to protect what is his.

Really Good

I really liked this book and look forward to the next one, wondering if the second book is the final or if there will be another one afterwards, however I'm sure I'll find out at the end lol

a review

The story was interesting but at times I found it hard to stay focused with the narrator. best way I can put it, he read the boring going through the motion parts like it should be interesting and I found that distracting. Definitely was trying to hard.

Great and refreshing story!

loved the book. I could not put it down. really enjoyed the character development. well done!

The Wraith Blade (book 1)

This was the most exciting performance I’ve ever heard! Never a dull moment and it seemed when there were parts of the story where I would compare what I would do for a situation, so did the character. Conner was amazing as a leader. ‘The leader who lead without any intentions” sums it up perfectly. Got to say, ’m impressed. The only down fall of the whole story was Zander lived. Getting book two now.

great book loved it and can't wait for the rest

I wasn't sure about this book when I saw a couple reviews. however I found it grabbed my attention and held it there in fact I binge listened to this rooting along with it and caught my self emerged in the description of even the simplest of things

Love the book, needs a different narrator

Love the book, S.M. Boyce did a fantastic job with the story and pacing and I'm so happy that the second book is out so I can start reading it. That being said I hope the narrator gets changed for book 2. As much as I enjoy hearing uncle Iroh as the wraith king, the majority of the character voices are bleh, and the narrator doesn't seem to understand when they story needs to be hyper serious or when it needs to be relaxed. Overall I recommend the book but just read it on kindle if you have the time and don't waste the money on the audio book.

entertaining

great story, refreshing plot. long but in the good way. excited to listen to the second

the characters

honestly there was nothing that I disliked about this story. it has really good character development. the action in the story is well written. this story keep me entertained throughout the whole series can't want for the fourth book to come out

Awful. Cliche.

Initially I was disappointed even infuriated at the book. So many cliches littered the pages. And a fight scene that comprised 4 chapters. But, I stuck it out and changed my mind. Now I'm looking forward to the next one. I still hate the narrator.

Just the right balance of story & background

Enjoyable story with great background characters and environments. perhaps a little too much detail at times, however that is a very minor note in what is overall a stellar book.
