The Forest of Ire

13th Paladin, Volume IX

By: Torsten Weitze, Tim Casey - translator

Narrated by: Gildart Jackson

Success at last! Ahren and his companions have revived the alliance of the Jorathian peoples. But there is little time for celebration, for while the defensive ring around the Pall Cloud is being strengthened with Dwarfish assistance, Ahren and his friends are already on their way to answer the Wrath Elves' cry for help in the Forest of Ire, from within whose depths mysterious dangers are threatening to destroy the Elven forest and all life forms within it. Time is running out, and not only is the Pall Cloud spreading its noxious vapors over an ever-larger area, but the stricken Forest of Ire must be saved at all costs.

If the forest falls, then the defensive ring will fall too, obliterating any hope of victory against Him, Who Forces.

What a great series

Not only is this a wonderful series but the narrator’s performance was dramatically exiting and heart warming. I also want to praise the translator who kept the fantasy feel and the characters like good friends who I could always get behind. The dialogue feels real and without the awkwardness or stoic aloofness of other translated works I have read. I hope the Green Sea is available for audio soon.

Sinister feel and unique storyline

Great twists. Unique storyline. Fully enjoyed this part of the series. The sinister feel to the entire story was wonderful.

The Forest of Ire

great story, very happy to continue the saga. This is my second time of enjoying this wonderful story.

What a fun adventure! A worthwhile read!

I think it’s a fun book. It seems to keep the tradition of the Middle earth. Hopefully it will continue to the conclusion of the series. I enjoy it very much.

Excellent Character Development

all of the books in the series are amazing thus far. The author and narrator do an amazing job of making you fall in love with the depth they provide to their characters.
