Magebreaker

By: Declan Court

Narrated by: Patrick Dubois, Melisandre Verte

Davik of Darkshire is one of the last Magebreakers who survived the Summoner War. In that brutal conflict, expendable conscripts were engraved with runes of resistance and hardiness, turning them into the scourge of warcasters. Using his augmentation to forge a storied career, he has battled through epic adventures, ambushes, and dungeons for the last decade.

After narrowly escaping a treacherous contract, Davik faces a choice: recruit and re-arm or leave his bloodstained past behind. Seeking solace, he heads to Oakshire in the Midlands, hoping to find peace and purpose beyond the burden of his reputation.

In Oakshire, Davik meets a former enemy, the captivating Sariel, a battle-elf turned tavern owner. Taking a job as a hired hand, he immerses himself in the simple, honest work of running a tavern.

With the company of Vorga, a book-loving orc waitress; Karley, a sharp-tongued drow bartender; Tyra, a faen cook with a heart of gold; and Elina, a cleric bent on helping him change, he begins to feel at home.

As Davik navigates his growing feelings for Sariel and the attention of his new coworkers, he finds himself drawn to this new life. Each relationship offers a chance at redemption and connection.

But old scores and dangers have a way of resurfacing, and Davik’s journey of healing is far from over.

Magebreaker is a slice-of-life fantasy tale of redemption, romance, camaraderie, and the quest to find peace.

Got to have more!

This book got me I wasn’t expecting it to be a good as it was! Action Spice good written characters and story that is a fun ride! I really really want more!

WOW

what a pleasant surprise this book was. I was a little skeptical because it just came out and it weren't very many reviews. I'm glad I took the risk. Absolutely amazing. I can't wait for more!!

Emotional and engaging

Was a very good story to listen to. Honestly one of the best I have heard.

Convincing war trauma

I feel as if the author did a good job of expressing the main characters trauma from his past experience. I would say of my biggest complaints would be that sometimes it's difficult to tell when the main character is doing an inner monologue or answering someone's question so be sure to pay attention. And as far as narrators go the male voice did a pretty good job, but the female seemed inconsistent and her range doesn't seem to be as good

Narration was very good.

narration was very good the story was good good interplay between characters good character tension and unfolding of back story lines.
