About this listen

Step into the hauntingly intricate world of Labors of The Bleak, where the ancient age of heroes has passed, and the fractured world of Maran teeters on the edge of darkness. In this stunning dark fantasy debut, follow Lestro Fondo as he navigates a land torn by war, powerful alchemy, and supernatural forces. The continent of Dysi faces an invasion from Boreas, with its unstoppable power, forcing Lestro and his companions to hunt for a legendary artifact that could save their homeland.

Richly woven with suspense and moral ambiguity, Awakened invites listeners to explore a world where the line between right and wrong blurs. From monsters and magical beasts to ancient mages and rogue warriors, Lestro’s journey plunges him into a brutal realm where survival means mastering power, facing one’s deepest fears, and risking everything against The Calamity—a force so powerful it has silenced an entire generation of heroes. Will Lestro’s courage hold, or will he succumb to the darkness? Find out in this first book of an unforgettable dark fantasy saga.
