Lightbinder

By: Michael Webb

Narrated by: Tim Campbell

Warriors are forged, not born.

Kaleth never wanted to be a fighter. Too thin, too weak, and too afraid, he could never fit in at Lightbinder Academy, where the kingdom’s elite warriors are molded. But when his family ends up with an impossible debt, he makes the only choice he can: signing his life away to the brutal school.

Thrown into a demanding world of deadly trials, arrogant rivals, and impossible expectations, he is outmatched at every turn. Now, the only thing that can save him is whispers of a long-lost magic.

As Kaleth struggles to stay alive, a threat to the academy itself grows. Initiates are dying, and trust grows fleeting. The line between ally and enemy blurs as a clash looms.

Can Kaleth overcome his weakness to save his family and friends while everyone else wants him dead?

Lightbinder is book one of a new young adult fantasy epic that will immerse you into a dangerous world of elite warrior training. With rich characters and a driving plot, this easy-to-listen series will keep you on the edge of your seat!

Hidden gem

Never heard of this author. I will be buying a hard copy following this. Can’t wait for the second book to be released.

Very good overall

The storytelling and narration were superb. I was hanging on every word and am very upset another book isn’t out yet
