About this listen
Strong-willed and full of hope, Leo strives to learn more of the magic he has read so much about. He's heard of invisible links in his world, and hidden rifts to other realms filled with creatures and stones of power. But Leo's family is stuck in an impoverished city. He performs backbreaking farm work beside his older brother, a rebellious and cunning thief, but nonetheless a brother whom Leo would trust with his life. Their father takes care of them as best he can, but a dangerous secret has weighed heavily on him for years. He won't be able to keep it hidden much longer.
Leo believes everything will change for the better when he begins work as a bookbinder and finally leaves the dreadful farm. He can apply for apprenticeship to the Bookbinding Guild upon his soon-approaching birthday.
Everything will change, but in ways their family would never expect. It all begins when Leo's brother steals something that he should've left alone.

Slow
Very slow paced. Interesting setup but boy, it was really dragged out. The pace may pick up later in the series but this is where I think I will leave it.
Narrator is excellent as usual.

Great fantasy tale
Generally a good story, easy to invest in the characters and to follow. Part one of three.

A gem for a freebie
Nicely written, characters well developing. Not many surprises, as it is a classic fantasy saga, with boys coming of age, monsters, injustice, fights and so on... Off to the next one. Narration is ok. I understand Simon Vance is a favourite by many, but I never managed to like him. Even if this one is one of his best narrations, not overdramatized, which is usually his signature.

Good set up for the rest of the series
This whole book is a set up for what’s going to happen in the rest of the series. Normally that would annoy me but it stands up well enough as a novel in its own right. I’ll be reading more.

Exiting story and descriptive writing
It was a very good story,well written and it drew the listener in,,so you cared about the characters. The narrator was also very good, but at times the various voices he used were too similar . Could have done with two narrators.

It gets really good stick with it to the end.
The beginning is a little slow, but I was gripped by the end of the book, court intrigue, battles, it has the best qualities of the Mortal Mage series I enjoy so much. It feels like part 1 of a novel.

Absolutely brilliant opener to the series, read brilliant by Simon Vance. Leaves so much to the imagination whilst explaining lots too.

All build no bite
Feels like the book was all set up for the next book. I am in two minds about reading the next book. That characters are likeable so id like to see what happens... when things actually happen. Narrator did a good job.
