About this listen

Scraps, a gutter child, is sitting in his hiding place in a back alley, waiting for the cold thunderstorm to pass. Suddenly, lightning strikes in front of him, and then a second time. The two lightning bolts become men — two wizards — one from the Red Order, the other from the Blue.

The Red Wizard, chanting his curses, throws lightning bolts and fireballs. The Blue Wizard, singing his spells, throws lightning bolts and ice shards. So intense is their fighting, they become lightning rods. It seemed as if God himself cast his lightning bolt, striking the ground between them and consuming both wizards in its white blaze. Scraps watched as the lightning bolt gouged its way across the alley, striking him.

Rain on his face awakens Scraps. The only thing left of the fighting wizards is a smoking crater and their scattered artifacts. He feels compelled to gather their possessions and hide them and himself. The dispersed items glowed red or blue, and he notices that he now has a magenta aura. Magenta, a combination of both red and blue, but more powerful than either.

Scraps then does what he has done all his life to survive. He hides. And unknowingly, he has become the catalyst for change in the Kingdom.

I loved this book. the narrator was the perfect choice for this book, the story was engaging with bits of humor mixed in. and the characters were all a joy to get to know, the protagonist may be super overpowered but it doesn't take anything away from the overall story. all in all it was a very enjoyable listen, thanks james for another great book and thanks Daniel for a great narration. =)

most excellent

Great book! I loved the characters, the humor as well as the mental vacation in a magical universe. I like the author's style and I will definitely be waiting with baited breath for the next release.
