A Time of Courage

By: John Gwynne

Narrated by: Damian Lynch

Heroes shall rise and fall, the earth shall be stained red, and the fate of the Banished Lands will be decided once and for all in A Time of Courage, the final audiobook in acclaimed fantasy author John Gwynne's Of Blood and Bone trilogy.

The demon king Asroth has been freed from his iron prison. Now, alongside his dark bride, Fritha, he plans to conquer the whole of the Banished Lands.

In the shadows of Forn Forest, Riv and the surviving Ben-Elim desperately search for a way to unite those who remain against Asroth's vast army.

Far in the west, Drem is with the Order of the Bright Star, besieged by a demon horde. Their fragile defenses are on the brink of shattering, but they know that it is better to fight and die than to live without hope.

And across the Banished Lands, armies are heading south, to settle ancient grudges and decide the fate of humanity.

Critic reviews

"Another masterpiece from what is a brilliant fantasy mind." (Out of this World SFF Reviews on A Time of Courage)

Favorite

This is hands down one my favorite series ever. The author is superb I would highly recommend!!!

Took a bit to get going

The first book of the series was a little slow and it took effort to keep my attention. Books 2 and 3 were much better and I truly enjoyed listening to them.

So good

Loved every minute. I am not just a casual reader either, this is top of the fantasy genre!! New fav author

Awesome!

My first experience with the author and narrator. I can’t wait to start another book. They both are excellent. Thank you

Awesome!

I loved the narration. I love every battle scene, and following each POV as they experienced them. A satisfying end, IMHO. Loved my entire journey in the Banished Lands. Truth and Courage!

Great finish to the series

There is quite a bit of grim and heartbreak in this book, but overall it finished the series in solid fashion. Can’t wait to read more of this author’s work.

a good ending to a great series

John Gwynne writes very fun action fantasy with lots of suspense, lots of action, and compelling characters. somehow his books are simultaneously brutal, grim, and inspiring. probably my favorite thing about him as that all his books are wholly unique in the genre of contemporary fiction. Gwynne creates his own worlds and fills them with unique lore, unique creatures, and one-of-a-kind storylines. if you like hack and slash fantasy I highly recommend this book (as well as his others).

Whoa! Get ready for massive action Warfare!

Final book in this series that you do not want to miss. Creative, great characters, a bit of magic but mostly warfare that stands on its own. A lot of strategy and got to note how much I love the Bears and wolves!

Loved it!

A great ending to an awesome trilogy. It took me a little bit to get used to the narrator's accent but once I did, I thought he was great.

Well written and well read

The story,as well as the telling, was great and kept me listening waiting to find out what would happen next!
