About this listen

Abramm has dedicated the last eight years of his life to becoming worthy to touch and tend the Sacred Flames of Eidon, and he expects to be blessed for his devotion and sacrifice. But on the eve of taking the vows that will irrevocably separate him from the life he was born to—as Abramm Kalladorne, fifth son of the king of Kiriath—he is betrayed by his spiritual mentor and sold into slavery by his brothers.

Swept along by the winds of a new destiny, Abramm is forced to compete as a gladiator. When the oppressed masses rally around his success, he discovers his suffering has molded him into something greater than he ever thought possible—to serve a purpose he never imagined.

Set in a world of swords and cloaks, of glittering palaces and mystical temples, of galley ships and ancient mist-bound cities, The Light of Eidon is the first volume of an epic series, Legends of the Guardian-King.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

So glad this is on audio!!!

Legends of the Guardian Kings is one of my favorite series, right behind Narnia & Lord of the Rings. I have long wished and hoped for it to be on audio and it was to my great surprise & delight to find book one. I hope the rest come quickly!!

While I think Adam Verner is a good narrator I do not think he was the right choice for this series, I did not feel his voice was masculine enough for Abram. However after I got over the annoyance I was still able to enjoy the story.

Highly recommend overall.

love the story didn't enjoy the reading

I love this book and author. I read it many years ago several times. when I saw it in audible I was really excited. but the reading made the characters sound flamboyant and wierd. it was overly enunciated and sing song. made these characters I had come to think of as Uber masculin and strong sound like foppish weirdos. I really hope the other books in the series have a different reader. especially when princess maddie comes into the story. she is the epitome of down to earth. I really don't want her to sound like a Kardashian.
