It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

In the wake of the Battle of Krauslung, the world has changed. For the darker. For the stranger. Magic swells like a storm, spilling from the stunned lips of farmboys and milkmaids, burning spell books to cinders at the lightest of touches. As Krauslung unknowingly balances on a knife-edge, tension mounts. Insidious whispers have begun to spread, drawing new enemies to the surface. Discontent, fear, betrayal...it seems that the girl is not the only enemy Emaneska faces.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

An inn is a place to rest, a place to talk and share stories, a place to find adventure, or a starting ground for quests and legends. It is in this world, at least. To Erin Solstice, an inn seems like a medieval relic from the past. But here she is, running from Goblins and trying to survive in a world full of monsters and magic. She’d be more excited about all of this if everything wasn’t trying to kill her. But an inn is what she’s found, and so that’s what she becomes; an innkeeper, who serves drinks to heroes and monsters. Mostly monsters. But it’s a living, right?

Monsters and beasts roamed the earth and were slain by soldiers and adventurers who were, in turn, killed by stronger threats. Heroes and villains created new epics and were forgotten when their successors appeared. This was the way of the Infinite World. Summoned into this chaotic place, a young boy with no name and no past must learn to survive. Bound to a master who doesn't care whether he lives or dies, he must become stronger. The question is: how?

Centuries ago, the followers of the new gods defeated the old gods and the folk of legend, banishing them from the world of man. With their departure, magic faded from the land. The Milesian Accords had provisions for a new challenge, though, and the Exiled Gods have sent their minions back to our world to seek out a champion to fight for them and a druid able to wield the magic needed to fulfill the challenge. A descendant of the druid who participated in the original challenge, Liam Knox doesn’t know anything about the Accords or his ancestors....

When he isn't terrorising his enemies, he's plotting inside his castle, which is built on top of lightless chasms filled with nameless horrors and beings of a generally malevolent and megalomaniacal nature. But after one of his latest creations, a zombie hydra-dragon-bear, tries to eat him, he decides that maybe it's time to find a new, less dangerous, career.

It has been thousands of years since beast-kind were united under one banner. The empire encompasses most of the known world, driving out or enslaving the lesser races without mercy. In a state of constant war and conquest, they have perfected the art of battle. For commoner wolf-kind Valian, being accepted and trained in a noble house's army was a dream come true. Without wealth or a family, it was his best shot at attaining honor and glory. Until fate intervened. When Valian discovers he's descended from an ancient and long-thought-extinct line, everything changes.

Unique tone, good story.
It may be that the translation from it's original German makes the language so appealing but I just can't get enough of this story. It combines campfire fable with sword and sorcerer novel in a fantastic way. Characters are well formed and endearing in a world that feels sort of Tim Burton at the end of many reading sessions. Think sleepy Hollow but with better character development. Really love this series.

A wonderfully fresh series just gets better
This series is unique in its mixture of fantasy elements set in a medieval landscape with unusual characters. The Gravedigger’s Son is reminiscent of the Hangman’s Daughter series in many ways but is in no way a copy. Similarly one of the evil characters is somewhat similar to the Razak of The Inheritance Cycle.
To top it all off the narrator is exceptionally talented and creates very believable voices for each character. I look forward to listening to the next audiobooks in the series. Keep ‘em coming!

It has captured my interest and held on tight!
Thus far, this series has been very well written and crafted! I laude it’s ability to highlight the vital need for and the presence of individuals of true character and integrity during the darkest of times. With an old world feel to the tale, it certainly rings pertinent and hopeful in the world of today.

Refreshingly written and told
Storytelling is an art form that, when done well, can capture your imagination. This series is a pleasure to listen to. Among a few minor flaws is that I burn through the book in a day and a half. I am forced to decide to spend another precious credit or not. I love it so far.

Jackson is an excellent narrator
Great follow up to the first book. Perhaps it could have been longer but Feuerbach brings this world to light so vividly that I forgive this.

really good, though I had some issues...
This is somewhat less of a "why you should/shouldn't read this book" review and more of a "here are my thoughts after reading it" review. so if you want to know if you should/shouldn't read it then: yes. yes, you should.
overall, I really enjoyed it. its a lot of fun, I'd definitely recommend it, and I have every intention to read the next book too.
there were a few things that bothered me though...
(minor spoilers... very minor)
1. for a great part of this book, the plot falls into what I can only describe as a merlin formula ( like the tv show, Merlin) in which a problem arises, Farin solves it with demon magic, Emicho is saved and doesn't know how it happened, repeat. it does this a few times, and everytime, farins secret remains hidden by sheer luck. the charade get rather tiresome very quickly as the threat of Emicho descovering farins secret loses its power each time.
2. the character Ki got on my nerves a bit, he seemed to fit every stereotype of the old wise ex-martial artist from china who acts as a mentor to the young protagonist. he is bacically mr miyagi but in a medieval setting. as someone who has seen a few too many old kungfu movies, I found everything he did played out and predictable.
here are some examples
- he devotes his time to a mindful non-violent hobby which he eccels at
- he is a super amazing fighter, but he doesn't fight
- he is constantly spouting pearls of wisdom in the form of proverbes
- he is picked on by bullies because of his accent
- he cries over a person he killed in self defence
- he is short
3. a lot of expositonal dialogue, especially with Emicho. I found that Emicho's role in this book was too often just being a vessel by which exposition is given to the audience (particularly in his conversations with the king). I found it a little out of character for him to be explaining things all the time as he is presented as someone who cares very little about what other people think about him. this, combined with the aforementioned constant ignorance at farins hidden abilities, somewhat take away from the legitimacy of his stoic and focused persona.
