The Errant King

The Myridian Constellation, Volume 2

By: Wayne Thomas Batson

Narrated by: Dave Cruse

Like a long night's slumber disturbed by disquieting dreams, 20 years have passed since Morlan Stormgarden's exile. The realm of Myriad waits in uncertain peace, for the Gray Hour Massacres remain unsolved.

Tempted by the lure of adventure, High King Lochlan Stormgarden begins to ponder his royal destiny. A daring plan is hatched, the high king's throne is left vacant, and Lochlan meets Ariana Kurtz, who might be the love of his life if she doesn't kill him first.

Meanwhile, Alastair and Telwyn Coldhollow set out to hunt Cythraul, the seemingly immortal assassin who vowed to murder everyone Alastair had ever loved.

Many paths will cross, a hellish creature will awaken in the Hinterlands, and the fate of Myriad will be decided in one bloody red night.

Enjoyed the story, much like the Hobbit series

Can't wait to begin the next in series.fast paced and intriguing.lots of twists and turns.

the narrator really brings this book to life

I loved the different voices, the different accents, it was very enjoyable. I'm so glad he reads the entire series! these books are great awesome story and plot. it kept me engaged!

An adventure you won’t soon forget...

It had been a long time since I had last read The Errant King, not long after its original release in paperback. So when I had the chance to read these fantastic books again in preparation for the long-awaited self-published continuation of the story, I jumped at the chance. Batson’s work is never to be missed and always to be enjoyed, and that’s especially true here.

Dave Cruse’s voice makes for lovely accompaniment to such a massive fantasy tale, and his voices are often precisely on point for the characters as the text represents them. His deep voice and nuanced accents breathe life into even the most nonhuman of speaking roles, but as with his narration of Sword In The Stars, the female voices tend to feel just a tad awkward or cringe-y at times. But that is more than made for in the description of the thrilling action scenes, which are more than plentiful here.

Dark, yet hopeful; sorrowful, yet triumphant; humor and mirth, but with murky clouds swarming the horizon. That is The Errant King in a nutshell, and if you want to pass such an experience by...well, I guess there’s no helping some people!

Perfect Book 2 of an awesome series

Story: Batson has obviously done his homework crafting this master epic because it seems every detail is in place- this story will certainly keep you engaged the entire time! I truly feel connected to the characters in the book and can't wait to see what happens in book 3. If you already read book 1, then I don't need to spend any time convincing you to continue!

Performance: Once again Dave Cruse is truly masterful in his performance. I don't need to know who is talking because I can just hear it in the distinct voices. Couldn't ask for more!

great reading I enjoyed listening to the story,.

looking forward to the next book.
thanks for a great read. the plotv took a little while to unfold, but it was a well read book.
