À propos de cet audio

The new, highly anticipated Tortall Legend from Tamora Pierce, the number one New York Times best-selling author who is legend herself, is a must-listen for any fantasy lover!

Arram. Varice. Ozorne. In the first book in the Numair Chronicles, three student mages are bound by fate...fated for trouble....

Arram Draper is on the path to becoming one of the realm's most powerful mages. The youngest student in his class at the Imperial University of Carthak, he has a gift with unlimited potential for greatness - and for attracting danger. At his side are his two best friends: Varice, a clever girl with an often-overlooked talent, and Ozorne, the "leftover prince" with secret ambitions. Together, these three friends forge a bond that will one day shape kingdoms. And as Ozorne gets closer to the throne and Varice gets closer to Arram's heart, Arram realizes that one day - soon - he will have to decide where his loyalties truly lie.

In the Numair Chronicles, listeners will be rewarded with the never-before-told story of how Numair Salmalín came to Tortall. Newcomers will discover an unforgettable fantasy adventure where a kingdom's future rests on the shoulders of a talented young man with a knack for making vicious enemies.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Tamora Pierce's legions of fans will be not be disappointed with what could easily be mistaken for a full-cast performance of her long-awaited novel by narrator Ariadne Meyers.... Meyers ably provides a wide range of voices for the mages, beings, students, and gods, as well as a light, smooth narrative. Standouts are the three students; Enzi, the crocodile god; and the university's mages. Listeners will eagerly await the next installment." (AudioFile)

"Tamora Pierce creates epic worlds populated by girls and women of bravery, heart, and strength. Her work inspired a generation of writers and continues to inspire us." (Holly Black, number one New York Times best-selling author)

"Few authors can slay so effectively with a single sentence - I mean fist-in-the-air, shouting-at-my-book slay - as Tamora Pierce. All these years later, I still draw strength from her words." (Marie Lu, number one New York Times best-selling author)

Not only has Pierce's writing matured, but she's back with the same wonderful magical world as ever. I enjoyed Ari Meyers' narration as well, she was able to find a voice for each character, and there were so many of them!

So legitimately I couldn't NOT love this book. But like. The overwhelming empathy of Pierce's characters is always my favourite.

Love this look at Ozorne and Numair and all the incredible depth shes knit into this world ive been peeking into since I was 13.

Loved Tortall and affiliated countries for decades

My Favorite Book

I highly recommend the entire Tortall Universe, starting with the best of the best, the Song of the Lioness Quartet, and go from there, this was just an amazing journey because you get to know Numair in the other books as a put together adult and truly understand his character and kindness so much more now, I cannot wait for the next book in his story. I hope Tamora Pîerce just lives forever, and these books never stop.

This story is excellent

I love love love Tamora Pierce and I was very excited to finally hear Numair's back story - as one of the few male centric stories she's focused on, I thought he must have been extremely interesting! I'm looking forward to seeing how his relationship with Ozorne evolves.

The narrator sometimes used simular voices for Arram and Ozorne so I couldn't tell who was talking. A few characterizations threw me off, however, that's a personal preference.

Enlightening Backstory

I loved this book, I know some people complained about the "puberty" aspect for Aram, but she does this in all her books with girls, so why wouldn't she do that for this book.

but besides all of that, I can't wait for the next book!

Awesome

Not her best, but worth a read. Set a good foundation for upcoming books. Poor narration/editing; mispronounced words including the author's name.

Not Tamora's best.

I tried reading the physical copy, which had more exclamation points to last me a life time. then I thought it might be better on audio... it wasn't.

I understand the MC might be a young boy and going through puberty, but I don't need or want to read about his boners. Nor does any object that happens to just out need to be described as " a mans part". I think the author has an obsession with the male appendage...

DNF'd at 40%
