Publisher's Summary

Centuries ago, the followers of the new gods defeated the old gods and the folk of legend, banishing them from the world of man. With their departure, magic faded from the land.

The Milesian Accords had provisions for a new challenge, though, and the Exiled Gods have sent their minions back to our world to seek out a champion to fight for them and a druid able to wield the magic needed to fulfill the challenge.

A descendant of the druid who participated in the original challenge, Liam Knox doesn’t know anything about the Accords or his ancestors, but those seeking to maintain the status quo are hunting him, and the beings of myth are doing their best to convince him to help the Exiled Gods return to the world of man, bringing magic back with them.

Liam is faced with a choice he doesn’t want, and if he chooses wrong, he risks more than his own life - he could end the world as we know it. And he’s running out of time to decide.

Great book. Narrator not adequate

Sorry for the Narrator. I know it is your livelihood. But. The ups and downs in his voice are simply too distracting and extremely annoying. Instead of focusing on the story that I personally found very interesting and unexpected, I could only hear the ups and downs of the Narrator's voice. There is no meaning to these ups and downs. It is just an artificial, snobbish, over-the-top way of speaking that does not match the story... I honestly do not understand why anyone would speak like that. It reminds me of when someone is filming you and asks you to "act natural", and all you can say or do is totally artificial and overboard. My apologies to the Narrator. I am sure that with some positive constructive criticism, he can do better.
I will, for the 3rd time, try to listen to the story, but if I cannot, I will try to get the actual book. Written, without this disturbing narration.
