Nothing can break the stranglehold the gods of Order have on the world...except a roll of the dice.

An irresistible longing drags young Galen to an ancient vault where, long ago, the gods of Order locked Chaos away. Chaos promises power to the one destined to liberate it, but Galen's dreams warn of dark consequences.

He isn't the only one racing to the vault, however. Horace, the bully who lives to torment Galen, is determined to unleash Chaos—and he might know how to do it.

Galen's imagination always got him into trouble, but now it may be the only thing that can prevent Horace from unraveling the world.

"This is no ordinary sword and sorcery story. This is what fantasy fiction should be. [Glen Dahlgren is a] novelist who I think will become more widely known as his skill is appreciated." (Piers Anthony, New York Times best-selling author of Xanth)

I really enjoyed the story. I will say, if you were looking to get into these books, start with game of war. One of the major characters in this book will not make nearly as much sense without reading the prequel novel. My only complaint with the story, was at times it felt like my hand was being held a little too much. Other than that, it was excellent. I really like the characters more in this book that I did in game of war. But again, I think game of war is necessary for this book to shine as much as it did.

A great story

What a great job. This story was full of magic, greed, friendship & courage. The characters were great. Horace made you so mad & Galen made your heart ache from the abuse from Horace. Mira was so strong & filled her role in the story with ease. The gods were not very helpful but the strength of the group was a force that helped chaos in the end. I read the book as well but I liked the audible version MUCH better. Also a perfect narrator. A must listen!

Loved it!

This story opens with a captivating beginning, continues with fascinating and surprising twists and turns, and concludes with a satisfying ending, all the elements needed for a great fantasy book. The tale was entertaining and I recommend it to everyone who enjoys this genre. I am looking forward to the next book in the series with great anticipation. Glen Dahlgren is working on finding his voice for this narration and I applaud his journey. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.

A Great Fantasy!

If you're looking for a thrilling fantasy ride, "The Child of Chaos" by Glen Dahlgren is a must-read (or listen!). This book has everything: magic, greed, friendship, and courage. Galen, our young hero, is a natural storyteller who gets swept into a whirlwind of adventure when he and his friends go to test their true callings. The world-building is top-notch, with intriguing Orders and gods who have locked Chaos away—though that's not necessarily a good thing. The characters are well-developed, making it easy to get emotionally invested in their fates.

The narration by the author himself adds a special touch, with Glen Dahlgren's pacing and character voices making the audiobook version even more enjoyable. Plus, the sound effects enhance the overall experience, immersing you deeper into the story. Whether you're a fan of epic fantasy or just dipping your toes into the genre, this book offers a fast-paced, emotionally engaging story that's hard to put down. Definitely worth the listen!
