Resonant

By: Jeremy Jacobson

Narrated by: Nick Podehl

An epic antediluvian fantasy about the struggle between power and free will—and what happens when the chosen make choices of their own.

Ranian is finishing the final hunt of his servitude to a shepherd merchant when a Firesong shudders through his mind. Elva, a Bell Maiden in training, hears it while aiming a knife at an assassin's heart. Imebron's studies are upended when the music passes through his body.

A Firesong of such strength hasn't been heard in millennia, not since the Sundering tore the world into its Five Realms. It can only mean that a danger of corresponding magnitude is approaching... if it's not already here.

The godly Authority has given its warning signs, and the Resonant have a decision to make: Will the three strangers abandon everything—including their values—to fulfill their calling to protect the Realms?

Well Written Fantasy Novel

A well written fantasy novel with unique world building and great characters! Nick Podell who also narrates The Name of the Wind Series does a great job narrating the story and bringing life to the characters. I especially love Ranian the hunter and Abithar. The story delves into themes such as personal agency and the cost of violence and takes classic fantasy tropes like prophecy and magic weapons and gives them a unique twist. Also, the cover art is phenomenal!
