About this listen
In the seedy world of Merethia's underbelly, not everyone with a smile is an ally.
For many, the elven city of Merethia is a wondrous place, where dreams come true. For Tip and Marshalla, however, it is a dark and dreary hell where every day is a fight for survival.
But in Merethia, everybody dreams, and these two street urchins once dreamed of sharing in the city's glorious wealth one day. It was a dream that drove them to take whatever job came their way. As for the risks, well...Merethia is no place for the weak.
Then they met Anieszriel, a terrifying chronodragon whose essence was trapped in the most powerful of arcane prisons. The wards about her prison should've made escape impossible, and kept her from claiming Tip as her new host. Only, they didn't.
It was an accident, but who would believe them? The Kin-Slayer was free again, thanks to them. And so now, they run, hunted by those eager to end their lives and return Anieszriel to the void. To survive the onslaught, they turn to each other and what few friends they have. Except, this is Merethia. When it comes to friends, not everyone with a smile is an ally.
The Beggar Prince is the first book in J.B. Drake's high fantasy series, Unbroken Bond. If you're after stories filled with memorable characters, lots of intrigue, and a generous serving of magic, you'll love this series by J.B. Drake.

Story4 out of 5 stars 10
I was born a heresy, a girl with a man’s magic in a city divided by gender, with monks facing off against witches. I trained with the monks only under my father’s protection, head of the monastery. Rose to the top, despite everything set against me. Until he died. A suicide, they called it. Yeah, right. They killed him for his heresy. For me. My only hope to survive now is to find his killers before they come for me. To expose their lies as the real blasphemy.

Generations have passed since the Unsundered god, Sartum, destroyed the City in Blue, the center of mortal use of magic. The betrayal of Sartum by William Reis and Myriam VolFar in the waning hours of that conflict has shaped the world of Alos and continues to do so. In the south, magic runs free. Though mostly bound to magical creatures and places, mortals are able to use the power that flows through the very land and its people. In the north, the lands are clean from the infection of magic.

I’m Val Thorvald, and I’m an assassin. When magical bad guys hurt people, I take care of them. Permanently. This doesn’t make me popular with the rest of the magical community — as you can tell from the numerous break-ins and assassination attempts I’ve endured over the years. But thanks to my half-elven blood, a powerful sword named Chopper, and a telepathic tiger with an attitude, I’ve always been able to handle my problems with aplomb. Maybe some cursing and swearing, too, but definitely aplomb.
