The Banished of Muirwood

Covenant of Muirwood, Book 1

De: Jeff Wheeler

Narrado por: Kate Rudd

In a world full of magic and mystery, eighteen-year-old Maia is the exiled princess of Comoros and rightful heir to the throne. Forced to live as a servant in her enemy’s home, Maia flees her captors and begins a perilous quest to save her people. To survive, she must use magic she has learned in secret - despite the fact that women are forbidden to control it. Hunted by enemies at every turn, Maia realizes that danger lurks within her, too. Her powers threaten to steal not only her consciousness but also her sense of right and wrong. Can she set herself free and save the realm she loves - even if her people have forgotten her? In bestselling author Jeff Wheeler’s fantasy epic, the answer may be only the beginning to Maia’s journey throughout the mystical land of Muirwood.

Listened to multiple times already

I work 10 hour shifts around heavy machinery. I've gotten headphones to reduce the decibels for my hearing. This book is perfect for getting lost in as I work. I still feel emotional when Maia does even though I know what will happen. Well written and extremely well narrated. The narrator takes on different tones and voices to breathe life into the characters. very good pairing of author and narrator.

Great read

Good book. It reminds me of the other serie Muirwood quite interesting and I love that its technically a continuation.

Thank You Amazon 4 Introducing me to Jeff Wheeler

Amazon sends out Prime Newsletters for books. Normally, I don't look at them, but for some reason, I did. I looked at the five books available and I purchased all of them. While they weren't my normal type books that I read, I joined Audible and started listening to "The Banished of Muirwood: Covenant of Muirwood, Book 1." I really enjoyed it even though I really had no idea what was going on.

Afterwards, I was hooked. Searching Jeff Wheeler, I found all his other books. Looked up the Reading Order and there I began.

I just love the series!

Kate Rudd is the best story reader.

So many character voices and she excellent at bringing out their individual personalities. I drive 1hr + each way to work. These Audible books make it so easy to disconnect from the traffic.

good until the last scene

loved it, you never know whats going to come next. lots of twists and turns, adventure a little romance and an epic tale of a girl trying to over come her past and present.

Awesome

Great continuation of the muirwood series. I like the storyline characters development. I definitely recommend it

jumps around a little.

The character jumps from time to time. 8 years old to 18, then back again.

Great Novel!

Jeff Wheeler does it again! Another fantastic story performed beautifully by Kate Rudd! A must listen for any fantasy, romance, and story lover!!

Great story!

Very entertaining story, well narrated and a very easy listen. The story moved quickly and I'm lookibg forward to the second book.

Why have I kept overlooking this?

I just finished the Audible version of this book and I have to ask myself, Where have I been? This has been on my TBR pile for ages but continually overlooked it for other books. Since listening to this Audible version, I wonder why I kept overlooking it. I do not know; it’s a mystery to me. I enjoyed this Audible version. It was long enough that I had to keep recharging my Bluetooth earbuds to finish it. In the mean time I couldn’t wait to get back to it. The actor reading it was wonderful. She paced her reading well so I could easily keep up. I loved how her voices changed from a woman’s to a man’s with enough inflections to even tell which man’s character and which woman’s character she gave the voice to. Now that I have an audible account, I will continue to listen to these stories. Very well recommended.
