About this listen

Here in his first non-Shannara novel, Terry Brooks has written a gripping story of mystery, magic, and adventure - sure to delight fantasy listeners everywhere.

Landover was a genuine magic kingdom, with fairy folk and wizardry, just as the advertisement has promised. But after he purchased it, Ben Holiday learned that there were a few details the ad had failed to mention.

The kingdom was in ruin. The Barons refused to recognize a king, and the peasants were without hope. A dragon was laying waste the countryside, while an evil witch plotted to destroy everything.

Ben's only followers were the incompetent court magician; Abernathy, the talking dog who served as court scribe; and the lovely Willow - but she had a habit of putting down roots in the moonlight and turning into a tree. The Paladin, legendary champion of the kings of Landover, seemed to be only a myth and an empty suit of armor.

To put the final touch on the whole affair, Ben soon learned that the Iron Mark, terrible lord of the demons, had challenged all prospective kings of Landover to duel to the death - a duel which no human could hope to win.

The task of proving his right to be king seemed hopeless. But Ben Holiday was stubborn....

Absolutely love this series and now I can enjoy it on my walks. I've missed Ben Holiday and crew!

Brilliant series

This book came highly recommended by my dad who read it many many times when he was younger. I am very happy he suggested it - it's unlike anything I have read, a refreshing twist on a classic idea and thoroughly enjoyable. I must give props to the voice actor whose performance was absolutely spot on! Couldn't fault it for a moment.
I would definitely recommend this one :)

Unique, brilliant, and fantastically performed!

I've read the book many times before and was hoping they would have a copy on Audible. I really enjoyed listening to it and being in Landover again.

Fantastic!

There is nothing to dislike about this wonderful book. I have read and reread three times since I discovered this brilliant series of wonderful Fantasy books/ Novels. It has everything you could ask for. An amazing pice of escapism, that whisks you away to Landover as soon as you start chapter Two. I think that this is so funny, Powerful, Dramatic and Addictively Adventurous. It makes me smile whenever I recall it and that is the real Magic of this book. Terry Brooks has wrote many great novels and this is one of them.

Absolutely Magic

Loved it! Before I knew where I was, I was lost in this magical world and accepted all of the characters as real.

Pure escapism.
