À propos de cet audio

The last line. The last words. The last chance.

Ifferon is one of the last in the bloodline of the dead god, Telm, who imprisoned the Beast, Agon, in the Underworld. Armed with a connection to the estranged gods in the Overworld, and a scroll bearing Telm's powerful dying words, he is tasked with ensuring the god's vital legacy: that Agon remain vanquished.

Yet there is something just as powerful: Fear. Ifferon abandons his duty and tries to hide away from the world. But when Agon's armies find his monastery refuge, he is forced to find his courage and embark on a life-changing quest.

Join Ifferon on a journey across the world of Iraldas that will lead him to brave new companions, through the struggles of many peoples, the siege of many lands, and to discoveries that could bring hope to some - or doom to all.

Experience the unforgettable start of an epic fantasy adventure perfect for fans of Will Wight, AC Cobble, and Michael J Sullivan.

Beyond the 'Fellowship'-like collection of heroes escorting a "weak" companion to deliver something (a scroll this time instead of a ring), and a Helm's Deep-clone siege, this book has little in common with The Lord Of The Rings. It *is*, however, a pretty obvious rip-off of Peter Jackson's film treatment of the Trilogy. Dean F. Wilson unapologetically steals lines from the 2001-3 screenplay.. but delivers a reasonably good riff on it.

Reader Simon Vance unfortunately makes the book worse with a lackluster performance. His professional diction, great pacing, and unsurpassed timbre/cadence are matched with an indistinctive collection of character voices that make this recording of the story hard to follow at times. This book would undoubtedly be better in a text format than in this audio iteration.

If you are a fan of the LOTR films, this book is a somewhat boring take that you can play in the background while doing something else. Altogether, 'The Call Of Agon' merits 1.5 stars out of 10. I admit that I had trouble concentrating on the book while listening - a good sign (for me) that it isn't great. I honestly couldn't give you a plot summary. Pass.
