Immortal Essence

De: Emma Reen

Narrado por: Skyler Morgan

Time is running out; who will get there first?

In a pre-industrial society, combined with a small use of high technology, four adolescents get to travel, explore, and discover new ways of training their essences with masters in different locations. While resting in a quiet and charming town, Ion, Cedrus, Cleomé, and Adeline learn about an ancient source of power called "Immortal Essence". The four teenagers are recruited into a risky mission of locating and retrieving this legendary entity, but they must also secretly race against the dangerous ruler of Karoush, High Master Zadur, in finding it.

Ion is a recently-turned-15-year-old boy who prefers to sleep on the ground instead of mattresses, he sometimes still acts like a 10-year-old, and he sees the world with an optimistic point of view. Then there is a sweet and loving 15-year-old girl named Cleomé who is bubblier than champagne and the most motivational person anyone could meet. She has the gift of being able to make almost everyone open up to her, no matter how introverted they may be. She is even able to reach the heavily guarded 16-year-old Adeline. Adeline is a hunter, a loner, and a very cunning girl. She has trouble connecting with people, and making friends does not come easy to her, but she finds a friend in Cleomé and the boys. Cedrus is a responsible but sometimes playful 16-year-old boy who looks like he could bring down a building. He loves combat arts and is very good at setting goals and following through with great discipline. He also happens to be Ion's best friend.

Immortal Essence is the first book of a series of young-adult fantasy novels.

Good story

Well done. Well narrated.  will be looking forward to the next in the series. You should buy this book.

Pretty good

The idea and performance are pretty good. This does seem to be more along the lines of the pittiacus lore in terms of character development and story line pacing, meaning that there isn't a whole lot of character development and each point in the book feels like it is rushing forward for the plot. All in all not bad though

loved it!

Fantastic world building, fun and interesting characters with their own depths and unique stories, twists and turns that are unexpected and exhilarating. Loved the story, can't wait for the next book!!!

l'm not target audience

If I were a lot younger I might have liked it, I I couldn't relate to any of the characters, it was a good listen, just not for me.
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review

Great book

I originally found this book on reddit and was not disappointed with the quality of narration or story. A+ will be following both the author and narrator in the future.
