Publisher's summary

A long dead evil stirs.

An unlikely hero must face his destiny.

Squire Col Vanheim wants nothing more than to train, get his spurs, and get away from the capital with its scheming, arrogant nobles. As a commoner raised to a position reserved for nobles Col faces bullying, taunts, and dirty tricks, when he isn't ignored completely.

On the day of his greatest triumph, a beastman invasion sends Col running for his life with the arrogant Princess Rain in tow.

With his mentor murdered, his home in flames, and an army of monsters out to kill him, can Col deliver Rain to the safety of legendary Celestia?

The Squire is a tale of love and honor, duty and revenge, war and survival.

Good one

I really liked the story but i wish the world was explained more than it was also that final battle vs the caster was a little predictable so when "that" happens i wasn't surprised at all and i hope there are more books since the ending was kinda abrupt

Another good Story.

I started listening to James Wisher’s series the Portal Wars Saga and I love his work. He does a great job introducing you to a world without overloading you with needless information and making it organic with the presentation. This seems to be a simple one shot story but I would love to listen to more adventures of Col and Rain.

Different but pretty good!

I don’t understand certain things like what is to happen with Rain and Cole. The end of a good book always sucks unless it was truly a worthy ending. Not sure if I can say more except don’t expect greatness from the story. Great narration though.

A bit of a disappointment

While this had good components to make an exciting story, I found the profanity off putting and the ease with which extramarital affairs were accepted to be a contradiction to the integrity of the main character.
