Synopsis

Tyrus of Kenatos has made it his life’s work to banish the plagues that ravage the kingdoms. He believes the answer to ending the devastation lies in the Scourgelands. Yet, Tyrus’s first expedition into the cursed woods failed after being defeated by mysterious minions who stalked and killed most of his band.Now a prisoner in his own tower, Tyrus has summoned his nephew Annon—a Druidecht possessing innate magic called the fireblood—on the guise of finding a hidden treasure with which to purchase his twin sister Hettie’s freedom. But in reality, Tyrus is using his niece and nephew, and their magic, as an opportunity to escape and resume his desperate mission. And to aid them, he has enlisted the warrior-monk Paedrin—who is almost as green as the siblings when it comes to traveling these troubled lands. The trio is determined, and along the way they grow to trust each other—and new additions to the group—in order to accomplish their missions…whether or not those missions are one and the same.But the Arch-Rike—ruthless ruler of Kenatos—has learned of these plans, and has sent the fearsome Kishion to destroy all those that oppose him. Now Tyrus and his unwitting allies must face down not only the plague, but this new enemy—and fulfill their quest before a fresh horror is unleashed on the world…

Growing up, I was expo......more

Another series by Wheeler off to a great Start! So far I have really enjoyed everything I've read by Jeff Wheeler. Fireblood is no exception! The series sees Annon and his sister Hettie being set up by their Uncle to go on some kind of mission, but we aren't really sure what everyone's motivations ar......more

Goodreads review by Daniel on April 25, 2017

I think I'd rate this somewhere between 2 and 3 stars (between "Ok" and "I liked it"), were the rating system more robust. I picked this up via Goodreads recommendation on the Kindle store for a dollar, and my read of it was a combination of Kindle and Audible audiobook. While it was a worthwhile rea......more

Buku pertama dalam trilogi novel 'Whispers from Mirrowen', bergenre high fantasy. Plot novel ni kebanyakannya diinspirasikan dari mitos2 Celtic dan Greek (seperti druid, dryad, etc). Plotnya laju pada 1/2 pertama buku, penuh dengan aksi dan pengenalan teori2. Pada 1/2 terakhir buku, plotnya berat si......more

It was nice to read a book with no jealousy, love triangles or whiny damsels. Hopefully the next book will be the same way! I’m givin......more
