About this listen
The White Tree (Book 1): In Mallon, the dark magic of the nether has been banned for centuries. Its users have been driven out or killed. Its secrets lost.
But the holy book of the nethermancers has just been found by a boy named Dante.
As he works to unlock the book's power, he's attacked in the street. The nethermancers aren't gone—and they want their book back. Caught between death cultists and the law, Dante fights for his life, aided by his growing skills and a brash bodyguard named Blays. Together, they're drawn into a centuries-old conflict that brings Mallon to the brink of civil war.
Surviving won't be easy. But if they make it out alive, they'll step down the path to becoming two of the greatest warriors the world has ever known.
The Great Rift (Book 2): Dante and Blays have averted war against their new home of Narashtovik. But they didn't do so alone. It's time to repay their debts.
The norren who helped them remain enslaved by the Gaskan Empire. While arming the norren clans for rebellion, Dante hears one of them is in possession of the legendary Quivering Bow. If he can track down the weapon, it could secure norren independence.
But the wheels of war have already begun to turn. As Gask moves to crush the rebellion, Dante and Blays find themselves at the head of a campaign for survival—for norren and Narashtovik alike.
The Black Star (Book 3): Narashtovik has been saved—but Dante and Blays' friendship has been destroyed.
Blaming the Gaskan king for the loss of his love, Lira, Blays infiltrates the enemy nobility. There, he schemes to bankrupt Gask and drive its ruler from the throne. But Dante's been waiting for Blays' return. If he finds and exposes him, Blays will be executed as a spy.
As they squabble, strange lights shine in the east. Harbingers of a long-forgotten threat. If the signs go ignored, Narashtovik will be annihilated by an enemy it never knew it had.
©2012 Edward W. Robertson (P)2015 Podium PublishingIf you could sum up The Cycle of Arawn in three words, what would they be?
Engaging, captivating, refreshingWho was your favorite character and why?
Honestly I don't know, I enjoyed each of the caracters. Especially because they had very different personalities, and they didn't always see eye to eye.What does Tim Gerard Reynolds bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
I found the narration easy to listen to. He defined each character well, so you knew who was speaking before any names were mentioned. It allows you to get lost in the fantasy easily, without struggleing to follow.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
To be honest, most elements were predictable. So not really. It didn't take away from the book though.Any additional comments?
Great length for one credit!Good book, engaging, strong caracters.

Truly exceptional.

A very nice sense of humour threads the pages. But then you have all the deep thoughts of the main characters. Self doubt. That makes the story more than just simple adventure with maguc
Highly entertaining.

Good enough

It starts of well and I thought I was in for a treat, but by the time your reach your destination in book 1 you feel underwhelmed. Books 2 and 3 are no different. A nice listen but not an epic.
Good writing with a mediocre story

Would you listen to The Cycle of Arawn again? Why?
I think I would listen again. I really appreciated the work Tim Gerard Reynolds put into performing, rather than simply reading, the story. The story still would have been fun without his efforts but he made it something better.What did you like best about this story?
The best thing about this story was the way characters interacted. I hope it doesn't come across as a backhanded compliment to say that the dialogue often seemed Hollywood-esque. Given the drama and action in the story that seemed really appropriate and fun.Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Some of the dialogue is pretty funny. I must have let out a few laughs.Any additional comments?
This story was let down a little by a lack of any particularly well realised female characters, but in my opinion more than makes up for it elsewhere.I will be looking for more books read by Tim Gerard Reynolds in the future. He really gave life to the characters.
A great performance of an original story
