Lusam

The Dragon Mage Wars, Book 1, 2

De: Dean Cadman

Narrado por: Alex Wyndham

Lusam grew up in the relative safety of the Elveen mountains with his grandmother. She taught him the basics of magic and discovered, quite by accident, that he possessed a unique skill never seen before: the ability to hide his magical aura from the mage-sight of others.

Dark secrets surround Lusam's origins, and the dark agents of the Empire will stop at nothing to kill Lusam. But before Lusam can be taught all he needed to know about his past, his grandmother unexpectedly dies of a fever, and Lusam finds himself homeless on the unforgiving streets of Helveel. Unbeknown to Lusam, the only thing keeping him alive is a promise he made to his grandmother to always hide his aura, no matter what. Lusam meets and befriends a young thief fleeing her old city of Stelgad before making a magical discovery that will change both their lives forever, and possibly the fate of the entire world.

I almost passed this up!

While looking for books with the same feel of The Inheritance Cycle I passed this book up several times, boy was that a mistake! This book is very well written and not overly complicated like you get with some other fantasy books. This book is a must read if you like The Inheritance Cycle. I don't like comparing books normally but on a scale (of how enveloped in the book I became) this ranks top five for me!

Love it!

Hate that book three and four aren't available yet. can't wait for it to be on Audible!

Excellent series

Excellent series, very enjoyable story line, simple and direct with little to no filler. able to keep an interest from start to finish.

Fun Book

Any additional comments?

This was a fun book. Loved the characters and the story. Alex Wyndham made the story come to life.

Great story overall good book, terrible MC

1st and foremost before deciding to read the story you should know it is a great story. But you should know the MC is a kind-hearted 16 year old boy. That may be a turn off to some, including me. But by the time I got to the point were it is really irksome I couldn't find it in myself to drop the series.

He is a super hero type kid. feels for everybody. In the middle of war people are trying to kill you but refuses to kill while they are shooting magic at him kind of annoying.

I give the plot, story, and world building 5 stars. Minus one because of the sheer stupidity of him sometimes. I am expecting him to mature as the series continues.

Narrator took some getting used to. Good story

The story started out pretty strong then it can slowed in the middle and then picked up a little steam at the end. Looking forward to listening to the next installment.

Not bad...

Where does Lusam rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I enjoyed the story, but the Lusam's relationship with Nina feels rushed and forced down my throat.

Should’ve been one book

These two books never should have been two books. There’s no distinct story line for each and they’re way too short.

enjoying

well have a new phone do will not show I have listened already 3 times, they say third is a charm. Enjoy the books very much. Thanks

Acceptable for light listening

The world doesn't seem as well constructed as other books such as The Wheel of Time and the Storm Light Chronicles and the characters seem a little flat at times but all in all it is an enjoyable listen. Just wish there was more "meat" from the story to sink my teeth into.
