Story
Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

Story
Gram lives in the long shadow cast by his father, the late hero Dorian Thornbear. Struggling to find his place in a world where politics and wizardry appear to have replaced the need for men of might and main, he must make his own mark. Trapped within the seemingly safe confines of Castle Cameron, Gram faces both love and tragedy. His choices will not only define himself but serve to remind others of his family's legacy and the reason only a fool threatens those a Thornbear protects.

Story
The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite - a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses.

Publisher's Summary
Thomas was no one, an orphan with no past and no memories of his early life. The only clue lies in the strange birthmark on his chest, a mark that may or may not reveal his origin, but will certainly guide him to his destiny.
Growing to manhood he will become a man of consequence and influence, yet the greatest gift he has to offer his people lies not in his power, but in his wisdom. As he strives to reach his potential he will face obstacles great and small and he will discover that some foes are too strong to defeat with power alone.
The greatest of evils can only be stopped when those true of heart are willing to sacrifice blood, tears, and sometimes - their lives.

Michael G Manning is one of my favourite authors but compared to his other works this is below average.
I found myself bored with the story, the main character is rather stupid when it comes to girls, his lack of action in that regard becomes rather annoying.
The Narrators lack of voice diversity takes away from the story. All the female characters have the same dark alley hussie voice. I would recommend reading this one not listening to it.

Book felt like a summary
This book felt like a summary it started well and got in-depth with good characters but then jump forward several moments in time and felt like large portions of the book were missing

not the best example of the author's work
Sounds and moves like a D&D module
For some reason the narrator makes every character sound like they have a sore throat.

I usually enjoy M G Manning, but this was dreadful
Several things - the narration. 'The voices' were ok, but every other line - and I mean every single phrase - was read with a really weird intonation. it was either OMG!-OMG!-OMG!! or DOOM-DOOM-DOOMMMM, with no 'natural' story-telling voice at all, and was entirely offputting. Second - I really don't think a whole fantasy sequence can be done well in a short story - too much is missing to really draw you in, even IF you could get past the narration. Thirdly, I might have forgiven some of the above if I could have convinced myself it was meant for quite a young audience, but the sexual references and occasional 'language' (which I am usually quite OK with) denied me that excuse. Thirdly, fanatical religion is not my thing, but that one's on me. But hey - it was free, so I don't have to ask for my money back. Just my time 😒
