Blackstaff Tower

Forgotten Realms: Ed Greenwood Presents Waterdeep, Book 1

By: Steven E. Schend

Narrated by: James Patrick Cronin

A Call for Heroes!

A young group of friends stumble across a terrifying conspiracy that holds the heir to the Blackstaff, the defender of the city of Waterdeep, in terrible danger. These friends must search deep within themselves to become the heroes their city needs to save its champion from those who would see both brought low.

Ed Greenwood, beloved author and creator of the Forgotten Realms, presents the first book in a brand-new series dedicated to showcasing both the City of Splendors and our most talented up-and-coming authors. A series of stand-alone adventurers, this book and the series to which it belongs were written specifically for those readers with no prior knowledge of the Forgotten Realms, making it an excellent entry point for new readers.

Muy disfrutable promedio

El narrador es mediocre, si bien agradable la mayoría del tiempo. Usa tonos poco naturales en algunos diálogos y uno de los protagonistas, cierto mercenario, tiene una vez exagerada que parece una sátira más que una voz real, y corta un poco la inmersión. De un modo u otro, si como yo buscas una historia de intriga clásica de reinos olvidados, o ahondar en la gran ciudad de Aguas Profundas, no te defraudará

Sniffles!

The story was decently written and fun to learn about famous characters. But the narrator was really hard to listen to. Not only was his voice tinny but he sniffled every so often which drove me nuts. Can't decide if I want to return it because of the narrator or get the next one because of the story.

fun read

it was a fun book very entertaining more unique words excellent performance good story thanks

The story keeps your attention.

I am along time lover of forgotten realms novels, as well as a tabletop gamer. This book does not dissapoint. Good action and dramatic tension overall.

good story, good overview of waterdeep

the narration is for the most part good, aside from being brutally unlistenable on some of the character choices.
