An acorn falls far from the tree

Former Chicago lawyer Ben Holiday was very proud and quite happy. And why shouldn’t he be? The Magic Kingdom which he ruled as High Lord was finally at peace. He was free to lie back and watch as his new daughter grew.
And grow she did—by leaps and bournds, shooting through infancy in a matter of months. She took her first steps and learned to swim in the same week. An amalgam of magic and heredity, Mistaya was born a seedling, nourished by soils from Landover, Earth, and the fairy mists, come into being in the dank, misty deadness of the Deep Fell. She was as lovely as her mother, the sylph Willow, with dazzling green eyes that cut to the soul. Ben wished he could enjoy his daughter's childhood and his happy kingdom forever.

Alas, those idyllic days were not to last. For Rydall, king of lands beyond the fairy mist, rode up to the gates of Sterling Silver and shattered peace of Landover. His armies were poised on the border, ready to invade unless Ben accepted a challenge: Rydall would send seven champions to face Ben, each in a different form. If Ben triumphed over all seven, Rydall would then abandon his claims to the kingdom.

Some counseled the High Lord to refuse Rydall's challenge, but Holiday could not, for Mistaya had been snatched from her guardians by foul magic. And Rydall held the key to her fate. . . .

the best series I've ever listened to.

this book, and all the others before it in the series, are absolutely amazing. it brings to life a fantasy world that borders our own, and the narrator brings it all together. I love it!

spectacular book

I love this book I had to have my phone everywhere with me so I could listen to it. I know there's one more book but I wish the story would go on and on the reader was fabulous.

Well read

Been a long time since I read this series. Loved it from the beginning. Was even more enjoyable listening to it this time. I really enjoy Jeremy Arthur as a narrator.

Comparable to Mr D.Hill

Was relived to enjoy this narrator instead of D. Hill, may he rip knowing that the narrator that has re-read his books for Terry brooks was very acceptable.

great story

This feels like a good old fantasy story of old! Most enjoyable story indeed. Give this story a go if you are looking for a great world building story.
