Simon can only watch, helpless, as his family is killed and his friends captured by enemy Travelers—men and women who can summon mystical powers from otherworldly Territories. To top it off, another young man from Simon's village discovers that he's a savior prophesied to destroy evil and save the realm.

Prophecy has nothing to say about Simon. He has no special powers, no magical weapons, and no guarantee that he'll survive. But he sets off anyway, alone, to gain the power he needs to oppose the Travelers and topple their ruthless Overlord. It may not be his destiny, but Simon's determined to rescue his fellow villagers from certain death.

Because who cares about prophecy, really?

About the Creator

Will Wight is the New York Times and #1 Kindle bestselling author of the Cradle series, a new space-fantasy series entitled The Last Horizon, and a handful of other books that he regularly forgets to mention.

Will lives in Florida, lurking beneath the swamps to ambush prey. He graduated from the University of Central Florida, where he received a master of fine arts in creative writing and a cursed coin of Spanish gold.

This story and its associated concepts feel disconnected and disjointed. Was the author going for something different and got sidetracked? A lot of buildup in some areas and not enough in others, characters come and go and we form no attachments to them or know why they exist, things happen and are not explained or are slated to be explained in the next book, locations and factions exist in unclear relation to each other (spacial and political).

There's also the "adversity training" trope I dislike where the protagonist gains great combat skills by spending a month or two in a hostile environment. This isn't how you get a trained swordsman, it's how you psychologically destroy a child and create trust issues.

Outside of that it kind of reads like a typical YA novel. The narrator is top tier as usual. If this is your first Will Wight book, give Cradle a chance, it's better in all ways.

No idea where this was going.

Travis Baldree is a fantastic narrator and truly brings the characters to life. the story was much easier to follow this time around.

Better than I remember

So happy for this re-recording by Travis Baldree, my favorite narrator, of a book by one of my favorite authors! Tried listening after going through Cradle multiple times previously, but while Will Wight is a Monarch of spinning tales, his narration was.. a bit less compelling (Sorry Will, still love you). So happy to finally listen through… it certainly did not disappoint!! Keep the fantastic work, both of you!

Will Wight + Travis Baldree = Magic^2

Only complaint is that they get strong too fast with what feels like little to no training doesn’t feel realistic but good.book none the less

Basically the same as cradle but I like that

Loved the narrator, and the unique magic system. I also loved that the story is told from more than one perspective.

pleasantly different

I'm a big fan of Will Wight but had been putting this series off for some reason. Then it got re-narrated by Travis Baldree and I finally listened to it. My only regret is waiting so long to listen to it

Fantastic book

The first book I ever read by Will Wight and I've loved it ever since. The wonderful cast of characters is brought to life with Travis Baldree's amazing narration skills, just like in Mr. Wight's other series, Cradle and Elder Empire

A wonderful start

Will does such a wonderful job creating new worlds and new adventures. The amount of detail he uses always amazes me, drawing me in as if I am standing in the middle of the story. I find that I re-listen to all of Will's books, both because I love the stories and characters, but also because I know I will catch something new. Travis also does a great job bringing the story to life. I can't wait to start book 2!

A creative story, intricately told!
