TWO MEN WHO HATE EACH OTHER. ONE IMPOSSIBLE MISSION. A LEGEND IN THE MAKING.

A warrior with nothing to fight for is paired with a thieving assassin with nothing to lose. Together they must steal a treasure that no one can reach. The Crown Tower is the impregnable remains of the grandest fortress ever built and home to the realm’s most valuable possessions. But it isn’t gold or jewels the old wizard is after, and this prize can only be obtained by the combined talents of two remarkable men. Now if Arcadius can just keep Hadrian and Royce from killing each other, they just might succeed.

I listened to the original series and became OBSESSED with this world of characters. I’m so glad the author started writing more books about the main character’s origin adventures. I will listen to any and every book by this author!! I love the dramatic version as it helps me keep the characters straight while having fun being immersed in the story. It can get a little intense but no more than an action film. Great books, great production, a must listen!!

Absolutely LOVE

I adored the performance of the actors. It made me buy the next one. The actors portraying Royce and Hadrian made me LOL more than once.

The narration sounds like the actor sees a comma rather than a period at the end of a sentence more often than not. (i.e "It felt like a horse fell on him. Oh, right," vs. It felt like a horse fell on him. Oh, right.") This got better, but was a bit distracting.

Amazing portrayal of Riyria

The dramatization adds an immersion to the story that made me want to continue with the stories from the author and world that they created. The voice acting is good and improved as the story progressed.

The graphic audio really brings the story to life.

Not sure about the voice for Hadrian-- he sounds too old-- but this is a fun listen!

Fun!

Great enjoyable book.

I rarely give out 5-star ratings, but this series and its dramatized style truly deserve it! The story is captivating, filled with intriguing and flawed characters that draw you in from the start. The dramatization is so vivid, it's like watching a movie unfold in your mind.

I was unfamiliar with Michael J. Sullivan before this, but as a fan of ensemble cast stories, I decided to give it a try. It exceeded all my expectations and earned a perfect 5 in every category. The voice casting is spot-on, adding even more depth to an already incredible experience.

Well done! I'm devouring the rest of the series now!

5's all around!

Michael J. Sullivan’s The Crown Tower, the first book in The Riyria Chronicles, is a compelling prequel to his much-loved Riyria Revelations series. It’s a masterclass in character-driven fantasy, seamlessly blending witty banter, gritty realism, and emotional depth to tell the origin story of one of the genre’s most iconic duos: Hadrian Blackwater and Royce Melborn.

Plot Summary:

Set years before the events of Theft of Swords, The Crown Tower follows the reluctant partnership between Hadrian, an idealistic warrior trained in nearly every weapon, and Royce, a cynical and deadly assassin. Thrown together by the mysterious Professor Arcadius, the two are tasked with stealing a seemingly impossible prize from an impregnable tower. But before they can even begin to work as a team, they’ll have to survive each other.

Meanwhile, the novel also introduces Gwen DeLancy, a strong and complex woman navigating life in a corrupt city. Her storyline—heartbreaking, empowering, and sharply relevant—adds emotional gravity and balances the main arc with quieter but no less compelling drama.

Strengths:
• Character Development: Watching Hadrian and Royce transform from enemies to allies is the highlight of the novel. Sullivan excels at showing growth through conflict and trust-building without ever forcing it.
• Pacing and Structure: The dual narrative format—jumping between Royce and Hadrian’s mission and Gwen’s rise to power—is well-balanced and keeps the momentum steady.
• Dialogue: Sullivan’s knack for clever, sarcastic, and emotionally rich dialogue gives the characters depth and charm.
• Accessibility: Whether you’re a longtime fan or a newcomer to Sullivan’s world, The Crown Tower is easy to jump into and enjoy.

Themes:
• Trust and betrayal
• Found family
• Survival and morality
• Redemption and change

Final Thoughts:

The Crown Tower is more than just a prequel—it’s a fresh entry point into Sullivan’s expansive world. With its rich character arcs, thoughtful world-building, and thrilling heist at its core, it offers everything fantasy readers crave. Whether you’re here for swordplay, political intrigue, emotional character journeys, or dry humor, this book delivers.

Highly recommended for fans of Brandon Sanderson, Brent Weeks, or anyone who enjoys character-focused fantasy with heart and grit.

This series has always had a soft spot in my heart, it is the best buddy fantasy stories I have ever read. Having it dramatized in this way brings the whole thing to such vibrant life. I will most certainly be binging the remainder of these audiobooks in the coming weeks.

excellent dramatisation of an excellent book
