Publisher's Summary
A kingdom in danger, a great betrayal, a boy seeking to redeem his father's honor. Will he succeed in exonerating him and saving the realm from an enemy in the shadows before it’s too late?
Lasgol is the son of the traitor; the man who betrayed the kingdom and tried to kill the king. At the age of 15, he has endured a hard childhood. In his small village in the North, where he’s cornered and hated, his only companions are the mountains and ever-present snow. Yet he refuses to believe that his father is guilty, even though the king himself was a witness to the betrayal.
Lasgol is determined to clear his father's name, and to do this, he has only one option: attend the School of Rangers, a secret place where the respected and feared defenders of the lands of the kingdom are trained for four years. Going there is insane: Hate and death await him. But as the son of a Ranger, he's entitled to attend.
At the Camp he will find himself involved in political intrigues, disloyalties, and fights. He will encounter hatred and fearsome enemies, but also a handful of friends; other novices who are out of place like himself, determined to do whatever is necessary to make it through the first year alive.

Lasgol makes me want to be a better man
What a legend of a main character! He holds no grudges when everyone else would. He just keeps going and going!
I stopped reading, because Urvi puts his “said” before the noun and it bugged me, but I came back and I am so glad that I did.
Lasgol is a hero worth emulating. Viggo is a jerk that I have grown great admiration for, and I have a crush on Astrid, too.
Story and performance are both brilliant!

Excellent fantasy
This highly under-rated series has almost everything you could want in a fantasy - action, magic, mystery, friendships, danger, romance...the list goes on. I particularly enjoy the world building in this series. I'm still amazed that I hadn't heard of it earlier, but once I started listening, I wasn't able to stop!

What exactly does an Editor do?
I enjoyed this book for the relative wholesomeness. Cussing, sex and excessive violence are detractors for me. But quite frequently I found myself rolling my eyes and going down a mental rabbit hole as I imagined what I would do differently if I were the editor of this book… I mean did they even read it?
SPOILERS…
There was this one scene where the snow panthers were being questioned after an assassination attempt by the school leaders. And after they all give their account of events the school leaders launch into this long discussion of state affairs, war drama and the like and I was left wondering if I’d missed something… were the kids still in the room? Surely the adults aren’t discussing this in front of them… but no, turns out they were there, soaking it all in. Okay, implausible but fine, this should advance the plot at some point. Then not a few chapters later one of the Panthers responds cluelessly to a friend mentioning the war rumors as though none of these state secrets were just spelled out in front of him. So clueless he was that I was waiting for either the punchline of a terrible joke or some clever explanation for why he’d pretend not to know something that was explained to his whole group. Or! Was this a mistake missed by the terrible editor who didn’t read the darn book before rubber stamping his approval?!
Oh! And one more that grated on me was the revelation of ability. We first get an inkling of it during his encounter with a wolf, where the writer gives the impression that this is as much a surprise to the character as it is to us. Cool we’ll go on the journey of discovery with him☺️. Then many chapters later we learn that it’s not a surprise after all, no he’s known about it since he was 5. 🤔😐🫤. Ok so, a competent editor would catch this and alert the author that he can’t have it both ways. Either the character does or he doesn’t know about his abilities. If he knows, his reactions to many situations he’s put in make ZERO sense. 😑 heavy sigh. I’ve always assumed it’s the editors job to read and catch mistakes. For that failure, it’s the plot holes and inconsistencies that stand out and have me imagining rewrites in my head.

The story was lacking in a little banter but it was easy to put on and follow while doing other tasks. I’ll likely get a few more in the series for this reason

Slow but worth it
Listen to 1.5x speed to cope with the slow pace. The plot is interesting and towards the end the characters become better.
By the end I wanted to continue with book two.
