Great continuation of long running saga

This newly released book is part of the long running series and I have found every book in the saga as a great and interesting narrative.

Exciting

“The First Ranger” is the eleventh book in Ryk Brown's Fringe Worlds series. As a longtime fan, I've read every book in each of his series. My journey with his work began when I discovered “Aurora” in the local author section of an independent bookstore. That first book captivated me, and since then, I’ve been reading his novels as fast as he can write them. Sadly, that bookstore has since closed, and Brown has moved away, but my enthusiasm for his storytelling remains strong.

This installment continues his signature style—fast-paced and action-packed. However, what truly sets Brown apart is his ability to craft fascinating characters. Each one feels distinct and remarkably real, leaving you with the sense that you know them personally. It’s this talent for creating authentic, relatable figures that keeps me coming back. Brown is undeniably a skilled storyteller, but it’s his ability to breathe life into his characters that truly makes his books stand out.

I experienced “The First Ranger” as an audiobook through Audible, with Jeffrey Kafer narrating. The runtime is six hours and forty-six minutes, and Kafer delivers yet another excellent performance. His voice suits the tone of the series perfectly, enhancing the immersion and bringing the characters to life.
