Game of Thrones meets Die Hard in this explosive epic fantasy, packed with tattooed mages wielding unbridled spells, meddling gods, dragon-riders, and twisted Norse mythology.

Only half the recruits that undergo the Ritual survive to become Written mages. Only they can wield the fiercest of magics, to protect the Arka, until either death or the madness takes them.

Five scholars of Arfell have been assassinated. A spellbook has gone missing – a powerful summoning manual from the time of elves and fire-born daemons. The Arkmages are running out of time and options, and the world is once again on the brink of war with the Siren dragon-riders. It falls to Farden – one of the Arka's most powerful yet troubled Written mages – to keep Emaneska from falling into chaos.

Entangled in a web of lies and politics, Farden is tasked with hunting down the assassin, and recovering the spellbook before it falls into the wrong hands, and the world is cast into shadow. It will mean fighting his way across savage Emaneska and back, a land infested with wyrms, marauders, and betrayal. It will take every fibre of his will, every scrap of magic in his bones, and if he falls, so shall the world.

Welcome to Emaneska.

The Written is the first volume in the Emaneska series, a fast-paced, epic and norse-inspired fantasy saga perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie, Steven Erikson, Will Wight, and George R. R. Martin.

Best narrator in a long time. Amazing story line. Unique magic system. Can’t recommend enough

So freaking good

I can’t say enough great things about Ben Galley and his Emaneska Series starting with “The Written.” I am a long time fantasy/mythic fiction lover (Tolkien, Martin, Rothfuss, Gaiman). Galley’s writing style and take on the genre is engaging and immersive. His characters feel dimensional in a way that allows the reader to become attached to them emotionally and the world he has created feels as though there is so much more one could explore if given the time and opportunity to linger.

Thank you Ben Galley for welcoming me into this new world!

Sticks to the ribs epic fantasy!

The base principle of the story is good but the writing doesn’t match up. The pacing throughout the story is off and the MC is fairly flat. The story is not tough to follow because it complex it just flows poorly.

Tough to follow

The problem with this book was not in the narration, or even the writing, but the editing. They weren’t typos or grammatical errors that I remember, but a lot of small things that a good editor could’ve fixed: character inconsistencies, plot line discontinuities, etc. I’ll keep an eye out for the author in the future because I think he’s likely to progress well, but I will read the reviews carefully before I buy.

Good ideas, but needed a better Contant editor

MC is a fairly flat, meh character. Seemed like in an attempt to keep up pacing; the motivations, development, and a lot of integral plot points were left out. The relationships in the story felt unearned, so twists meant little. Narration was truly the highlight. Not rushing to snag book 2, but I’ll check it out to see if the story and characters improve.

Tough to follow. And not because it was complex.

The immediate mystery captures your attention and builds intrigue. Overall I thought it was wonderfully written. A few parts felt rushed or more or like they lacked some detail / depth that would have developed the story and characters further. But I understand wanting to plant seeds for later books. I’m hoping he delves further into the magic system as I find it enticing and want to understand how it fits together, it seems like he set you up to gain an understanding of it as the character does.

Well Written and Captures your attention

I love the story and characters. However the writing is… not good. You’ll hear “Farden” sixty times in 30 seconds. If it wasn’t farden stood. Farden walked to the door. Farden opened the door. I’d love this if it wasn’t written the way it is.

I really wanted to like this

I absolutely loved this story! Everything from the story to the narration was phenomenal! I'm starting the second book now because I have to know what happens next! There was no interest or excitement lagging parts in this book and I'm sure it'll be that way in the next! I highly recommend this book to any lover of swordplay, magic, dragons, and all sorts of fantastical creatures!

Outstanding!

The hard Scottish voice was hard to get used to but the story made up for it. After listening to it for awhile it just really felt right with the characters. Really enjoyed this book looking forward to the next.
