Incursion

The Necromancer's Key, Book 1

De: Mitchell Hogan

Narrado por: Michael Kramer

An immersive and ambitious new series from the Aurealis Award-winning author of A Crucible of Souls.

A corrupted power stirs from beyond the grave.
A sacred order of knights sworn to protect the world from evil.
The Necromancer Queen will rise again.

Seventeen years have passed since the Necromancer Queen Talia was overthrown and slain, and her capital city destroyed by the Knights of the Order of Eternal Vigilance.

Anskar DeVantte, raised in the sacred disciplines of the Order, is now ready to face the brutal initiation trials to become a consecrated knight-sorcerer.

But the further Anskar rises in the ranks the more his faith wavers, and he is beset by harrowing dreams and uncertainty. As troubling powers awaken within him, a schism grows between Anskar and his hallowed Order, and he draws the hungry gaze of the vanquished queen’s fanatical followers.

As Anskar pieces together the mysteries of his early life, and begins to understand the malevolent forces gathering in his path, he finds himself with a crucial choice to make: Remain loyal to the Order’s righteous mission, or control the dark powers growing within him.

Either way, his destiny is steeped in war. The only question is, which side will he be on?

Awesome

ncursion is a world with fantastical works with spiritual overtones and a creepy, ambiance that will enthrall any audience.

Oh… the same world as Niklaus!

This book was great! And it’s been such a long time since I read Mitchel Hogan’s series with Niklaus fighting demons, I didn’t realize it’s earlier in the same world. Can’t wait to read the rest of the story and see how the Goddess arises!

Amazing!

This book was amazing! It had a great story line and I get wait to read the next one!

Worth a credit

As far as "coming of age" fantasy tropes go, this book is a good rendition. An excellent take on the phrase "the road to hell is paved in good intentions."

I normally don't enjoy books that invest so much into theology but witnessing the existential crisis developing in our protagonist keeps me engaged.

On to book 2!

Worst Maps of Any Fantasy Series

Decent story. Decent writing. Excellent narration. Worst maps of any fantasy series I've ever read or listened to.
