About this listen

From the author of the New York Times bestselling King’s Dark Tidings series comes a prequel novel set in that world.

Wesson is still years from becoming a man when an immense darkness stirs within his core. The sinister power bursts free during a confrontation with an old enemy, and Wesson’s tranquil life is left in tatters.

Forced to flee a murderous mob, Wesson stumbles onto a tumultuous path where he must confront the destructive power he has awakened. He must learn control over the power he wields or risk being consumed by it. As he wrestles with his training, an assassin stalks his every move. This new enemy is sent by a mysterious foe, one who will force Wesson to choose between the kindness in his heart and the seductive power in his soul.

Mage of No Renown can be enjoyed as a standalone, but be warned: it will likely lead you into Free The Darkness.

Its even better when you know how it ties into Rezkin's story. after this book you will have a fair bit more respect for the nerdy guy with a bit of destructive power.

great book all by itself

Excellent back story, filling in many untold stories about Wesson.
If you enjoyed the 'Kings Dark Tidings' series this is a great book for more of the story behind a sub-main character

Kel Kade’s King’s Dark Tidings series has always been one of my favourites. There’s just something charming about the world and characters.

With her other series, Shroud of Prophecy not quite hitting the mark, I’ve certainly been concerned with the future of KDT. Luckily it seems my concerns have been assuaged. Taking a break seems to have been the right move because Mage of No Renown is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. The passion is there.

One of the things that I’ve noticed about Kel Kade’s earlier instalments of KDT and this book was the pacing. The story moves from one scene to the next fluidly with little down time between them. This is very important and Kingdoms and Chaos was a good example of the pacing being ‘not quite right.’

It’s very nice to see the backstory that’s been hinted at for many years now, and if Dragons and Demons can match or exceed the quality of this prequel, I’m very excited.

Good work Kel! I’ll always keep reading your books even if I’m not a fan of some.

A welcome return to form
