Publisher's summary

It is the year 5170 in the land Agora, where humans, dwarves, and elves have existed in peace for centuries. Now, however, the human King Addakon has invaded and waged war on neighboring Isladon. The once peaceful Kingdoms of Agora are on the brink of continental war. The Dark Elf Eadon, and his army of Dragon-Elf crossbreeds, the Draggard, threaten to conquer all kingdoms. Enter young Whill, a 19-year-old ranger with battle savvy and untapped abilities. Having spent years roaming Agora and training with his mentor Abram, Whill has become a bright intellectual and a master of combat. Along the way, Whill encounters an equally inspired group of companions that are matched in skill and mission. What he seeks most, however, is the identity of his birth parents. Instead, he finds a tumultuous terrain and a prophecy placing him in the center of the struggle.

it's a decent story.

I had to struggle through this one. It is reminiscent of the high fantasy short story I wrote when I was 12 years old. hopefully the writing gets better as I progress through.

Please dont judge this book bybthe narrator!

I originally read this series on Kindle. I loved the story and the characters. When Book 6 came out, I needed to remember the story so I bought Book 1 on Audible...the narrator is so bad I had a hard time finishing. But go read it!

All of the ingredients of epic fantasy, but

it doesnt quite reach it's potential. For one there is little world building and very littel, or original magic system. I think the author has potential and I will probably buy the next book. I liked the narrator, while he did have consistent voices for the characters, the range in the voices were not distenctive enough and at times I would have to concentrate on who was speaking.

good story good writer

he tends to spend a lot of time describing scenes and when you expect action at first nothing happens but the plot and characters are great and the non action does build character.

Fast-moving, excellent performance.

Where does Whill of Agora: Whill of Agora, Book 1 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Probably ranks in the top 10 audiobooks.

Any additional comments?

I agree that it is more accurately classified as YA, but it is still an engaging story. Fast-paced, fun, and an excellent performance by Graham Halstead. Not overly serious, but well-written and characters are identifiable. Recommend.

Good enough

Didn't love the narration and the story was a little to flat and predictable but still good enough that I'll try the next one and hope for a little more.

A great series

The most upbeat characters hardened by the hard decisions that face them and how they over come their challenges. Well read and written.
