Since time immemorial, humans have worshipped the gods they call Fhrey, truly a race apart: invincible in battle, masters of magic, and seemingly immortal. But when a god falls to a human blade, the balance of power between humans and those they thought were gods changes forever. Now only a few stand between humankind and annihilation: Raithe, reluctant to embrace his destiny as the God Killer. Suri, a young seer burdened by signs of impending doom. And Persephone, who must overcome personal tragedy to lead her people.

With Age of Myth, Age of Swords, and Age of War, fantasy master Michael J. Sullivan riveted listeners with a tale of unlikely heroes locked in a desperate battle to save mankind from extinction. Now comes the pivotal point. After years of warfare, humanity has gained the upper hand and pushed the Fhrey to the edge of their homeland, but no farther. Desperate to find a way to break the stalemate, the answer lies in the half-forgotten words of an ancient song. Not all legends are of heroes, and not all myths are invented. And sometimes, when you’re desperate enough, you’ll believe in the inconceivable and even seek it out.

In Response to the Criticism from Other Reviewers
- By Jonah on 06-11-17
Publisher's Summary
WHO WILL HAVE THE LAST LAUGH?
Stop me if you’ve heard this one. A thief, a candlemaker, an ex-mercenary, and a pig farmer walk into a trap…and what happens to them is no joke. When Riyria is hired to retrieve a jester’s treasure, Royce and Hadrian must match wits with a dwarf who proves to be anything but a fool. Difficult choices will need to be made, and in the end those who laugh last do so because they are the only ones to survive.
This is a standalone short story of 7,200 words. No prior knowledge of The Riyria Revelations or The Riyria Chronicles is required to enjoy it to its fullest, making this a perfect introduction for new readers or a chance for Riyria veterans to spend a little more time with old friends. The Jester is a story of adventure, bonds of friendship, and a recognition that the choices we make dictates the future we find.

THANKS AGAIN FOR ANOTHER FREE SHORTY
Once again Michael J Sullivan gives us a free short
story. This shorty is another Riyria tale, and is an
excellent introduction to some of Sullivans best works.
If you haven't tried this author, I suggest try the 2 freebies,
while they are still available .

Where does FREE: The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale) rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This was a short, free book that accompanied me on a jog. I had no previous knowledge of the world or background story of the characters, but it was still so very enjoyable.
It certainly made me eager to try more books from the author. And kudos to the narrator, he makes great voices!
Give it a try and I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

I mainly got this short story as a time filler between books. It was free and the narrator is one of the best! This was a great short and works well as a stand alone story but I'm sure I would enjoy it more if I listened to the whole series and knew a bit more about the characters.

Entertaining
Where does FREE: The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale) rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I enjoyed this short story so much that I have ordered the first book in the series. Very entertaining, and manged to delineate the characters and back story in a short space of time, often by what was not said.
What was one of the most memorable moments of FREE: The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale)?
Stuck in the sealed room discussing the murder of the old man to get the pieces of the treasure map.
Have you listened to any of Tim Gerard Reynolds’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Not listened to any others
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The ending. Though I thought the greatest treasure might be life.
Any additional comments?
Excellent entertainment, and a slightly different take on the sword and sorcery genre.

An amusing affair in a D&D style
If you could sum up FREE: The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale) in three words, what would they be?
Dungeon
Treasure
Fools
What did you like best about this story?
The characters are unique (although perhaps stereotypical ~ but that in itself was quite amusing). A fighter, a thief, a candlestick maker and a pig farmer!
What does Tim Gerard Reynolds bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Expression of voice, accents.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Made me laugh and made me eager from suspense.
Any additional comments?
Really enjoyed this short story. Would recommend. Will probably look into the series.

Neat and tidy story.
A very enjoyable story that encapsulates the whole series. Narrator could be better I reckon.

Small but perfectly formed
Short but Intriguing, perfect as an interlude between other stories. Found myself thinking about it after the end. Certainly worth a read.

Blooming Surprised!!!
I didn't. Think it was going to be as good as it was, boy what a surprise I got ,I'm a massive reader off e books and I've never heard an audio book before I cannot wait for a full one rather than a short story

Didn't enjoy it....
What would have made FREE: The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale) better?
Okay for a freebie, but I wouldn't have paid for it.
Narration was poor, and the story could have been SO much better...
How could the performance have been better?
It was simply poor across the board.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from FREE: The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale)?
Sorry, but I'd have to re-write it. Just didn't enjoy it at all.

fun short story
a fun short story. I didnt like how they argued and wasted time in the cave for so long while it filled with water. I think any one else in that scenario would make a choice quickly! other than that, it was an enjoyable listen.

An advert to the series
Plenty of tie ins for riyria listeners. Nice complete clever story arc. On the whole it felt like an advert for the rest of the series, introducing characters and referring to other adventures. As a Riyria fan, I enjoyed it.
