About this listen
Friends. Foes. Where is the line?
Conor and his allies return from the quest for the Sword of Categym to find the Galel kingdom under siege. The forces of the Empire of Ar-Annator gather on the frontier, and the Marines must fight their way through enemy lines to reach friendly territory.
To make matters worse, an attempt is made on King Uven’s life, grievously wounding him. As traitorous elements among his retainers make a grab for the throne, a deeper, darker, sorcerous plot makes itself felt. The Empire has planned this for a long time. The foul things they’re in league with have been planning longer still.
Can Recon Marines and their allies adapt quickly enough to head off a coup before darkness envelops Cor Legear?
Audiobook includes WarGate After Action Report with the author.

My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

Their peace was a fragile thing, but it had endured for seven years, mostly because the people of Darassus and the king of the Naor hordes believed his doom was foretold upon the edge of the great sword hung in the hall of champions. Unruly Naor clans might raid across the border, but the king himself would never lead his people to war so long as the blade remained in the hands of his enemies. But when squire Elenai’s aging uncovers evidence that the sword in their hall is a forgery, she’s forced to flee Darassus for her life, her only ally the reckless, disillusioned Kyrkenall.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 37
Their peace was a fragile thing, but it had endured for seven years, mostly because the people of Darassus and the king of the Naor hordes believed his doom was foretold upon the edge of the great sword hung in the hall of champions. Unruly Naor clans might raid across the border, but the king himself would never lead his people to war so long as the blade remained in the hands of his enemies. But when squire Elenai’s aging uncovers evidence that the sword in their hall is a forgery, she’s forced to flee Darassus for her life, her only ally the reckless, disillusioned Kyrkenall.

After a century of imprisonment, demons have broken free of the wardstones surrounding the Worldwound. As fiends flood south into civilized lands, Count Varian Jeggare and his hellspawn bodyguard, Radovan, must search through the ruins of a fallen nation for the blasphemous text that opened the gate to the Abyss in the first place - and which might hold the key to closing it. In order to succeed, however, the heroes will need to join forces with pious crusaders, barbaric local warriors, and even one of the legendary god callers.

I love this series!!!!!
can't wait for the next one and the one after that!!! I also hope the sword bearers survive and hope that BOTH stay good. I have a feeling the freshest one might let his temper get the best of him. I hope that doesn't happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. just like when the kings champion had to cut down his best bud so I'm afraid that is foreshadowing what's to come with our sword bearers.

This is my favorite installment so far in the Lost Series. Really a lot of character growth, gear shifting, and witnessing the boys become part of the world they’ve found themselves in. Outstanding from start to finish.

Incredible Series.
The mystery that surrounds how the mist occurred which brought the Marines into another world. The dark sorcery vs modern day weapons and warfighters who adapt to the strategies of the enemy is text book Marine Corps improvise, adapt and overcome. Exceptional writing and well paced storyline. These books keep you on the edge of your seat and are highly entertaining.

Great original and imaginative story with action and adventure! The main character is heroic while still being an integral part of a team. There is character development without excess contemplation or self absorption. The narration was also perfect.

Another solid book in the series.
If you’ve listened to the previous books then you’re going to read/listen to this one too. Mark Boyett just rocks the narration. He’s perfect for these books.
This book does move the whole story forward and shoves a sword (see what I did there) into a few things from the last book.
So stop reading and start listening. As with the previous books, Mr Nealan doesn’t disappoint.

Great story!
Peter Nealen does a great job upping the ante with book 5. There’s trouble here in the kingdom and it’s up to the Sword Bearers to ferret out the Ar-Annator evil in Cir Legear. This is setting up for an epic battle in book 6. In the end we even get to see the Dullahan clash with Conor and Bailey and a cameo of some blessed beings. Can’t wait for book 6.
