The Jester (A Riyria Chronicles Tale)

By: Michael J. Sullivan
Narrated by: Tim Gerard Reynolds

Publisher's Summary

WHO WILL HAVE THE LAST LAUGH?

Stop me if you’ve heard this one. A thief, a candlemaker, an ex-mercenary, and a pig farmer walk into a trap…and what happens to them is no joke. When Riyria is hired to retrieve a jester’s treasure, Royce and Hadrian must match wits with a dwarf who proves to be anything but a fool. Difficult choices will need to be made, and in the end those who laugh last do so because they are the only ones to survive.

This is a standalone short story of 7,200 words. No prior knowledge of The Riyria Revelations or The Riyria Chronicles is required to enjoy it to its fullest, making this a perfect introduction for new readers or a chance for Riyria veterans to spend a little more time with old friends. The Jester is a story of adventure, bonds of friendship, and a recognition that the choices we make dictates the future we find.

fun short story

a fun short story. I didnt like how they argued and wasted time in the cave for so long while it filled with water. I think any one else in that scenario would make a choice quickly! other than that, it was an enjoyable listen.

Need to read rest of series

I know it says this is a standalone read, but I felt a lot was missing with not having read the other books in the series. Narration was good.
