After the events of Sons of the Oak, Fallion and Jaz, the sons of the great Earth King Gaborn, are living as fugitives in their own kingdom, newly invaded and secretly controlled by supernatural beings of ultimate evil. The sons are hiding until they can regain their rightful places in the land. Fallion seems destined to heal the world and feels the supernatural calling to act. When he summons his powers to do so, though, two entire worlds collapse into one, and every living thing in both worlds is transformed into an entirely new being - yet still somehow the same. Evil is certainly still the same - and may have influenced all of this for a terrible purpose.

Good book, great narrator

Enjoyable continuation of the series. Dramatic change of tone and characters, but still has me attached to the series.
Ray Porter's narration capabilities only seem to be getting better. His range of character voices is fantastic, and I can easily keep track of who's speaking just by the sound of their voice.

Ever since Martin Banks and his fellow computer geeks discovered that reality is just a computer program to be happily hacked, they've been jaunting back and forth through time, posing as medieval wizards and having the epic adventures that other nerds can only dream of having. But even in their wildest fantasies, they never expected to end up at the mercy of the former apprentice whom they sent to prison for gross misuse of magic and all-around evil behavior.

Horrible
Revisado: 05-11-15
What disappointed you about An Unwelcome Quest?
The dialogue was the worst I've ever seen, with characters frequently talking back and forth at each other one word a time. The premise of the story gave it great potential, and yet somehow the other managed to squander every single bit of it. The characters had the ability to travel through time and manipulate the world around them like gods and yet chose to just sit around eating junk food and watching TV. The characters were so flat, with no personality and no development, that after 8 hours of listening I still didn't know who anyone was and could hardly associate the characters with any of their previous actions in the story.
What was most disappointing about Scott Meyer’s story?
The writing competency of the author appears to be about that of a middle-schooler. I'm not usually very critical of any creative works because I appreciate that anyone took the time to sit down and make something unique, however I just can't understand how material this poorly written was ever published.
Did Luke Daniels do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
He did a fair job giving some characters vocal personality, but most sounded identical making it hard to know who was whom. I also think part of the difficulty distinguishing characters was simply due to the author's horribly written dialogue.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
No redeeming qualities. Every facet of this book disappointed.
Any additional comments?
This was, without a doubt, the worst book I have ever read or listened to.
