The Summoner

Chronicles of the Necromancer, Book 1

De: Gail Z. Martin

Narrado por: Peter Ganim, Gail Z. Martin

The comfortable world of Martris Drayke, second son of King Bricen of Margolan, is shattered when his older half-brother, Jared, and Jareds dark mage, Foor Arontala, kill the king and seize the throne. Tris is the only surviving member of the royal family aside from Jared the traitor, and he flees with three friends: Soterius, captain of the guard; Carroway, the courts master bard; and Harrtuck, a member of the royal guard.

Tris harbors a deep secret. In a land where spirits walk openly and influence the affairs of the living, he suspects he may be the mage heir to the power of his grandmother, Bava Kaa, once the greatest sorceress of her age. Such magic would make Tris a Summoner, the rarest of magic gifts, capable of arbitrating between the living and the dead.

BONUS AUDIO: Includes an exclusive introduction written and read by author Gail Z. Martin.

The world or setting is interesting, characters could have been more developed but the biggest problem was the narrator

best book series ever

honestly I don't know how to go on about how great this series and this author is. Just listen, read it, fall in love.

Solid Fantasy Novel

This is a solid start to a fantasy series. It has some of the familiar plot points but enough of a twist on it to keep it interesting. I'm curious to see where it goes from here.

Good Author Bad Narrator

The story is definitely fun. The first reviewer is right about the narrator...listen to the sample before buying and decide for yourself.

WWE Narrator but good story

Struggled to get through the narrator, character voices are C- at best. Didn’t bother me as much once I got used to it.
