About this listen

This audiobook features dramatized audio performances by a full cast - featuring some of your favorite Riot voices.

Discover an epic tale of magic, revenge, and an empire on the verge of ruin in the first ever novel set in the blockbuster universe of League of Legends.

Camavor is a brutal land with a bloody legacy. Where the empire’s knights go, slaughter follows.

Kalista seeks to change that. When her young and narcissistic uncle, Viego, becomes king, she vows to temper his destructive instincts, as his loyal confidant, advisor, and military general. But her plans are thwarted when an assassin’s poisoned blade strikes Viego’s wife, Isolde, afflicting her with a malady for which there is no cure.

As Isolde’s condition worsens, Viego descends into madness and grief, threatening to drag Camavor down with him. Kalista makes a desperate gambit to save the kingdom: she searches for the long lost Blessed Isles, rumored to hold the queen’s salvation, if only Kalista can find them.

But corruption grows in the Blessed Isles’ capital, where a vengeful warden seeks to ensnare Kalista in his cruel machinations. She will be forced to choose between her loyalty to Viego and doing what she knows is right--for even in the face of utter darkness, one noble act can shine a light that saves the world.

Anytime League Of Legends puts out long-form narratives(Arcane, Song of Nunu), I become excited at the idea of delving deeper into the lore and bringing it to life. this book does that spectacularly, in my opinion.

I spent any time not using my ears to survive listening to this book and enjoyed every second of it. The small details that short stories can't delve into are always a joy to pick up on. Although none of these things would be possible without the talented people that lent their voices to their audio book. The entire cast performing in this was such a good time and all of their performances immersed me in the world of Runterra. But two performances stood out to me the most.

Thresh is probably one of my top 3 favorite champions in the game. The gameplay is fun and feels great to play once you learn the mechanics. His design just screams to my inner "flames on a Camero is cool" self and Mark Oliver's performance as Thresh is so soothing yet overshadowed excellenty by the evil in his soul.

As one of many readers that knows this story that knowledge is a different kind of tense for me. The first time I heard Hecarim(Scott McNeil) speak I almost didn't recognize him. The calm demeanor, as opposed to his primarily violent one, was a treat to the ears.

As of writing this review, June 25, 2024 We are eagerly awaiting Arcane Season 2 and they have confirmed the desire to create more series like this. If that's the case, I'm excited to see more of this world, that I love so much, come to life!

An excellent listen if you love voice acting and League lore ○☆SPOILER ALERT☆○

I love the dark tones that Anthony Reynolds brings to the League of Legends universe. Like I said in the headline I have many unfinished audiobooks but this is not one of them. This was a masterpiece from beginning to end and I look forward to more of his works in the future including playing the MMO which is in development in which he is Lead Narrative Designer/Writer.

Many audiobooks unfinished but not this one!

I loved this book. I was not familiar with League of Legends game or other but it captured my interest immediately. Really like full cast. Would love if there was a follow up book

So enthralling

This was so well done. An excellent listen.
The only problem is that afterwards it left me wondering if I may never listen to something this well produced for the first time ever again.

Amazing
