Publisher's Summary

The eighth installment of the hit series The Beginning After the End has arrived! Join the hundreds of thousands of fans who have fallen in love with TurtleMe's reincarnation epic fantasy and main character Arthur Leywin, voiced by the talented Travis Baldree.

I had to accept that I wasn’t just Arthur Leywin anymore, and that I could no longer be limited by the circumstances of my birth. If I was going to escape, if I was going to go toe-to-toe with the most powerful beings in this world, I needed to push myself to my utmost limit...and then I needed to push even further.

After nearly dying as a victim of his own strength, Arthur Leywin wakes to find himself far from the continent where he was born for the second time. Alone, broken, and with no way to tell his family he’s alive, Arthur must rebuild his strength to survive. As he ascends through an ancient dungeon filled with hostile beasts and devious trials, he discovers an ancient, absolute power - a power that will either ruin him or take him to new heights. But the dungeon won’t give up its knowledge easily. Before he can plunder its depths, Arthur must learn to untangle the threads of fate. He must band together with the unlikeliest of allies if he hopes to escape with his life.

always a pleasure to listen to baldre. amazing story. I am lost in the world turtleme has created. I only hope the next book is faster paced purely because I'm impatient to know everything that's happening. lord of the rings is dirt compared to this.

By Far Best Book/Series On Here

Let’s just start off with the story, the story is hands down the best storyline plot whatever you want to call it I have ever read, it is full of action/adventure, drama, character development, romance like what more could you want? Now to talk about the narrator/ person who reads the story. Honestly idk where to start, he is the best narrator I have ever heard, that’s out of 137 books so I think you can trust me, he has the right emotions in the right spots, the Perfect voices for the characters, like HOW CAN YOU DO A GIRLS VOICE SO WELL or how can you do a birds voice so well?!?!?
In conclusion 100/10 best series in history

I think the author hates their audience

After reading others reviews I had to wonder if we were reading the same book. Remember what happened at the end of the last book? The huge plot point that set up this very sequel? Well apparently the author didn't.

There was no effort made to even retcon previous plot points, If you like stories that make sense, that build on eachother then look elsewhere.

One of a kind story!

The story is very unique and absolutely a pleasure to read. It's rare when you find a story you just can't put down. Can't wait to read the next one.

Loved it!

It was awesome, loved it. This book was more interesting than the last, delved more into world building. Regis was the star of this book, his moments were funny and added a nice contrast to the seriousness of the story.

Narrator did an awesome job too!

The majority is great!!

Really enjoyed Arthurs half of the story, towards the end I ended up skipping chapters that were from Elese perspective as I don’t particularly like her character
