Forsaken Kingdom

The Tales of Telaria

De: T.L. Routledge

Narrado por: Dave Cruse

The north was decimated by war centuries ago and nature never recovered. Rumors and whispers now spread of the return of the darkness that once plagued the lands. Prince Gilford remains as the only surviving heir of a dying kingdom but he must remain vigilant as he knows there is more to fear than simply the darkness.

Yet he is not alone, an old hero of the past - Bathir, leads a small band of companions on a quest to reclaim an ancient war relic that could ultimately turn the tide of the impending war.

Im more than excited to see whats next.

The story is both concise and well-developed, delivering a captivating experience packed into a relatively small package. The narrative unfolds with a steady pace, drawing readers in from the very first page. The enemies are formidable and the battles are intense, each encounter filled with high stakes and significant consequences that keep the tension high throughout. What truly stands out is how the author manages to build such depth in the characters and the world they inhabit, despite the book's brevity. This careful development creates a rich backdrop for the unfolding drama, allowing readers to become fully invested in the outcome. The plot twists and turns are executed with precision, leading to a climax that leaves a lasting impression. It’s impressive how the book stands alone as a complete tale, offering a satisfying resolution while still seamlessly hinting at future adventures. The potential for a sequel is tantalizing, and I find myself eagerly anticipating what the author has in store next. With the groundwork laid and the promise of more to come, I can’t wait to dive back into this enthralling world! The story is concise and well-developed. The enemies and battles are intense, with significant consequences. Despite the book's small size, it stands alone as a complete tale while also leaving the possibility for a sequel, which I will be eagerly anticipating!

Masterpiece

Dave Cruse is a master narrator, perfect for the genre! Felt like my grandfather reading me a bedtime story. The story was amazing and I’m greatly looking forward to the next book in the series!

The story is entertaining, and more. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.would recommend

Fun, short high fantasy

This is a fun short high fantasy appetizer that feels like a trailer for a DnD-esque fantasy epic series. The writing is solid, the world is interesting and if you like high fantasy you're going to enjoy this. 3/5 is a solid score from me, the world building here is good but it didn't give me time to development and attachment to any of the characters, most of which intrigued me. As a way of generating interest in the main series this is a success, I'm definitely interested in further exploring this world.
