For listeners who enjoy classic fantasy woven with timeless wisdom.
As the weapons master once said, "Everything you want is on the other side of fear..."

Long ago, a mysterious event known as The Great Forget ravaged the Earth. Magic was born.
Millennia later, a baby with red eyes is abandoned at the gates of a small kingdom tasked with guarding the Pass of Death. The orphan, Chip, is condemned by a spiteful king to a life of misery in the castle kitchens - scorned, unwanted, and cast aside.

In a twist of fate, Chip befriends the princess and catches the eye of the wise wizard Xander, who sees something special in the boy. The wizard sends him to train under the realm's most formidable mentor, the weapons master, where Chip learns hard-won truths, hones his skills, and prepares for the ultimate test: his Manhood Quest to the Pass of Death.

There, an ancient evil awaits... and a stunning revelation.

The audiobook version is narrated by acclaimed actor Nigel Peever, with music and special effects, showcasing over 30 years of voice mastery.

Uncover the ancient mystery behind The Great Forget Fantasy Series - a saga readers are calling "addictive," "powerful," and "impossible to put down."

Nice read or listen

don't like writing reviews liked the book and bought the second even though it was not in audio

Orphan

The boy was good to get out of the kitchen. Glad he knew a little of how to use he magic.

Great Story! Fantastic Narration!!

Wonderful just get it you will not regret it! Great story and story telling! Loved the Narration and sound effects which I normally do not care for. Going to be hard to wait for all of this series to come out !

Reader was hard to understand

I use audio to fall asleep to and in the middle of the night the worst screaches and screams woke me. There was apparently a battle with demons happening. That would have been my deal breaker if I'd known, I wouldn't have spent money on the title. It gave me anxiety. Not nightmares, that would imply I was able to fall back asleep with my heart pounding. I have a cat and it sounded like she had been trapped and was being mangled by machinery.
I'm definitely deleting this purchase as a waste of money.

Really annoying narration.

I gave up on the book about a third of the way through. Too many distracting sound effects and some cutesy voices. The story was okay but seemed like it was being told to a child and even the adult characters seemed child like and unlikeable.
