The Days of Myth

God Stones, Book 3

By: Otto Schafer

Narrated by: A.J. Carter

Dangerous magic saturates the world. Dragons, giants, and sentient trees roam the Earth. As the apocalypse unfolds, the fate of humanity rests with a small group of teens.

Garrett Turek survived his first run-in with the sinister Apep, but surviving came at a great cost. Breanne Moore - the beautiful girl from his dreams who traveled thousands of miles to help him - was snatched away. Now he will stop at nothing to get her back, even if it means ignoring an ancient prophecy and the destiny laid out for him since his birth. To find Breanne, Garrett and his friends must leave the safety of their small Midwestern town and travel across a country in turmoil, contending with dragons, giants, and shape-shifting trees. But their true foe may be someone from Garrett’s past - someone growing in power and hungry for revenge.

In Mexico, Breanne and young Gabi have escaped the clutches of Apep and the King of the Giants, finding safety in a hidden cenote. But in order to save a loved one, they must abandon their safe haven and strike out on a dangerous journey through a jungle filled with creatures enhanced by the power of Apep’s magic. No matter what, Breanne must keep Gabi safe, protecting her not only from the new dangers that seem to lurk around every corner, but also from herself.

Why are the trees of the world waking and walking? Why are some able to shape-shift? And what do they want with Garrett Turek?

Can Garrett and the others find Breanne in time to save her, or will they be the ones in need of saving?

Can Breanne protect Gabi on their journey, or will leaving the safety of the cenote be a deadly mistake?

The Days of Myth is the third book in the award-winning God Stones young-adult contemporary fantasy series. If you enjoy well-developed mythical creatures anchored in a world where the unbelievable feels believable, then you’ll love Otto Schafer’s coming-of-age adventure.

Will you have the courage to discover the secrets revealed in The Days of Myth?

My favorite book of the series so far!

Great imagery throughout this book. I also feel the characters are developing a lot. Go Jack! :)

Keeps me drawn in !

Let’s just say I’ve listened to the first three books in this series in a week. May sound like a lot but I drive truck so there is plenty of time to listen. But usually I split my audio books with podcasts throughout the day but these books are so inviting and addicting I kept listening and threw my podcasts aside for the most part. Usually a 10+ hour book with last me 3 days, not these, 10 hour book is a day or maybe two!

Great series

This has to be one of the best series I have read in a while. I absolutely cannot wait for the 5th book. Otto has a way of drawing you into his stories. It was one of those “just one more chapter before bed” and then you blink and it’s 5am

Epic Fantasy with

The continuing mission of Garrett Turek and his friends becomes more and more deadly as magic begins to awaken other beings best left asleep! Not only do they have fractions of beings hunting them down, but the dragons and Garrett’s human enemy – another boy from his past are becoming more deadly than anything Garrett has thus far encountered. Garrett has many foes blinded by anger, longing for revenge, thirst for power, greed, and the destruction of his world. Garrett and his friends are discovering their new powers and their past.

Otto Schafer, the author, has once again written a creative and exciting adventure with non-stop action. The steady growth of the characters is balanced giving each one a balanced presence. His descriptions are crystal clear and graphic. The storyline is well planned, and plot twists are executed flawlessly. While more characters and action are being added, Schafer does this clearly and deliberately. There is no room for confusion as Schafer does not allow it.

The narrator, A.J. Carter delivers a consistent performance throughout, with each character maintaining their unique voice. His delivery is smooth, clear, and with appropriate intonation. He accentuates those scenes that require it to keep the listener captivated.

This is one of three books in a series. This book, like the others, is excellent. It captures the imagination and attention of young adults and older. When I listen to Schafer’s books, I close my eyes and can see the book clearly in my mind. I highly recommend this book.

There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook. The production was clear and well-done.
