Publisher's summary

Walde has inherited a forbidden power from his father, enabling him to commune with Thara, an enigmatic being that lives deep in the earth. Walde thinks he can keep this power a secret, but one day he slips. His father is blamed and executed, the body placed on a raft and sent down a rushing river. Walde breaks free and goes after him...only to discover that the execution was staged. Very much alive, his father floats off to a mysterious end. During Walde’s perilous journey to rescue him, he learns what is truly at stake: not only his father, but also his people’s entire way of life.

A New Fantasy World of Tree People

W.K. Greyling creates a new and fascinating world where a gentle people cherish and gain life from trees. We follow a young male (Walde) as he comes to terms with his father and powers. While a good book, it is only the first half of the story. Be prepared to get/buy the second book in the series, Battle in the Woodlands, for "the rest of the story." I liked this story and this new fantasy world and culture. But, I found myself wanting more descriptive detail. Thus, I say to the author, more descriptive adjectives and dependent clauses, please. Help us see, smell and enjoy your new worlds.

Stunning! What a unique find!

This was a shockingly great find. I have read many fantasy books and often find the same story retold. This is not the case. I enjoyed every part of it. very unique characters and storyline. Hints of magic and love with well developed characters. I am looking forward to the next book in this series. A must read!

Great book

A story that you do not want to put down or for the story to finish. It draws you in in-such a way that you can visualise the story as it moves along.
Always enjoys books written by W.K.Greyling.
Good first book. Kept me interrested from being to end.
Narrator was easy to listen to.

Loved it!

This book draws you in immediately with an interesting story that feels fresh. At no point could I predict where the story would be going next, which I appreciate because it makes you really enjoy the journey. The descriptions were enough to allow the reader to see the world without being so drawn out that they were boring. Overall, I have really enjoyed everything I’ve read from this author and I can’t wait to see where this story is going next!

Very good book

This is a very good book in the start of this series. Not quite as good as the authors other books but still a great story line & character development. The only real drawback is the narration. There are so many mouth noises that it is distraction & lessens the overall quality.

Another Great Series!!

I have been given a copy of this audiobook in return for my unbiased opinion.

Author W.K. Greyling has done it again! This is a great beginning to a new series. The world of tree living is so well written that I could imagine being there. It is a coming of age story and kept my interest all the way through.

I highly recommend this listen!

Wonderful fantasy story!!

This was truly a wonderful fantasy story! It really kept me hooked. You are genuinely intrigued about Walde's story and what happens. The narration was also perfect for this book. At first I was a little worried the narrators voice might put me to sleep because it was so calming, but he does a great job of keeping you listening! Highly reccomend!
