About this listen
When Dante Galand was just a boy, his father, Larsin, sailed away to make his fortune. And never returned. Since then, Dante has become a great sorcerer. A ruler. A destroyer of kings. And he's just learned that his father is living on a forbidden island at the edge of the known world. Where he's dying of a mysterious plague.
In the company of his friend, the swordsman Blays, Dante travels to the island. There, his magic can do nothing for his father. As Dante and Blays quest for a cure - beset by strange beasts, angry spirits, and violent coastal raiders known as the Tauren - Dante falls sick, too. To save his father and himself, he'll have to rediscover the island's long-lost magic. But the hunt for its secrets leads Dante on a crash course with the Tauren - and island-wide civil war. And as he's away, an old threat begins to move against his homeland.
Set in a USA Today best-selling world, The Red Sea is the first in a trilogy of warfare, sorcery, and friendship through the darkest times.

A good story after The cycle of Arawn
A good narration of the continuing story about Dante and Blays and the magical use of the nether and ether as danger unfolds and truth and lies abound in their journey to finally get back home.
Lots of new characters along the way.
A good listen but not too absorbing.
Could easily listen again next year .

The story continues.
The story continues a few years after the Cycle of Arawn. And the story is just as exciting as the last

Another great book
Only complaint is that I finished it too quickly and I want more. Great story and characters with an interesting plot.

It's good to adventure with Dante and Blays again!
Would you listen to The Red Sea again? Why?
Probably not. Robertson's books always feel a little bit like listening to a game of Dungeons & Dragons. It's a lot of fun, but not a fantasy epic I would re-visit on a whim.
Have you listened to any of Tim Gerard Reynolds’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Great reading by Tim Gerard Reynolds. It wouldn't be half as good without the life he brings to each of the characters - especially the essential banter between Dante and Blays.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Sure. Though the plot itself isn't anything spectacular, the way Robertson writes the characters is what makes the journey so fun. Listening to Dante and Blays banter again is like reuniting with old friends.
Any additional comments?
If you're just looking for a fun, but violent fantasy adventure, and nothing too deep, this should be a great listen.
You can't listen to this without going through the Cycle of Arawn trilogy first. It would be just too difficult to follow the story or understand the important references it makes to events taking place in the previous books.

Bloody brilliant
The witty remarks are perfectly and accurately presented. Tim gerard reynolds has an amazingly dynamic voice that captures the tense moments as well making the quiet moments of the book enjoyable. If you loved the cycle of arawn, you wont be dissapointed by this.

Fun story
As always Tim brings characters to life with their own unique identity. Thoroughly enjoyed the book and narrative.

Not in love.
I did not like the main characters at all. There was no character building or world building. I had no connection to the thoughts and feeling of the main characters, and therefore did not care of they succeeded or not. I brought the second book in the series at the same time as the first. Second one seems a little bit more promising, but only because they introduced another character and she is likeable and relatable. Still might return second book yet, as only 1 hour in.

sample was great, actual story a bit stale
Was expecting more from the story than I got. It was all a bit predictable.
