The People's Necromancer

The Age of Magic, Book 1

De: Rex Jameson

Narrado por: Adam Gold

Craving a complex, daring high fantasy? The Age of Magic series is reminiscent of the emotional roller coaster and grit of Game of Thrones with the wonder and danger of the Upside-Down from Stranger Things!

Amidst the darkest days of antiquity, mankind discovers a new kind of hero.

For thousands of years, mankind warred without magic. Peculiar abilities were buried in history along with the storied paladins and the mysterious dark elves who rarely ventured into human towns.

That all changes at the end of the Tranquility Era, when a young man named Ashton accidentally raises his murdered best friend Clayton from the grave. Because of his mistake, Ashton becomes the focus of manhunts, armies, and the King’s judgement, but Ashton is not the biggest problem in the Kingdom of Surdel.

The golden age of man is coming to a close and enemies surround the civilized world. Lulled into a false sense of security by isolation and pervasive peace, human lords hatch petty schemes to weaken their rivals and gain favor with the throne. Meanwhile, an ancient darkness stirs beneath the Great Northern Mountains and the orcish hordes grow restless just beyond the Southern Peaks. Out of the chaos at the end of the Tranquility Era, a new breed of hero arrives to forge an age of sorcery and mayhem. And into this chaos comes the Necromancer!

Absolutely worth the listen

I got it becuase I had an extra credit and needed something to listen to. Glad this was recommended because now I'm in love with the series

Excellent! Lord of the Rings meets Game of Thrones

Pleasantly surprised. It contains all the gore, violence, oddities and suspense you'd want to see in an adult novel. Well thought descriptions for the imagination with the epic character writing of GOT. I'm so glad that the rest of the series is here on audibles.

So very good, looking forward to more!

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

This was a fantastic epic fantasy and well worth a credit. The narration is very well done and fits the tone of the story quite well. I especially loved that they made a necromancer the good guy. So often this archetype of character is used as the villain, or at least as a minion of the bad guys.

Worth reading,
