About this listen

Twice before, Thomas Covenant had been summoned to the Land, the strange, otherworldly realm where magic worked and his leprosy vanished. Twice before, he’d been dragged reluctantly into conflict against Lord Foul’s minions, with disastrous consequences for everyone around him. Now, Covenant is back.

In a land blasted by war and drowning in despair, Covenant is the only hope against Foul’s imminent triumph. Yet in order to win he must stand against his dearest friends and direst foes in combat. As Lord Mhoram leads the armies of the Land in helpless warfare, the wild magic of Thomas Covenant’s white gold wedding ring is once again the Land’s only salvation - and he still has no idea how to use it.

Great Series

One of my favorite fantasy series that reveals the true nature of the war between good and evil and the essential ingredient of true heroism. You’ll have to read it to find out what that is!

Lush & Imaginative

The narrator does a Great Job again, and I hope a-z gets the second Chronicles soon!

Fantastic Book

I read the Thomas Covenant Chronicles Series One books a long time ago. I also read the Second Chronicles series. Listening to the books brings back the memories of reading them. I always thought they should have been made into movies. I haven't been able to find the audible books for the Second series but the Third set is available. Is there a way to get the Second Series on Audible? I don't want to listen to the Third Series before listening to the Second.

The narrator, Scott Brick, did an excellent job. The voice he uses for Banner reminds me of a character from the TV show, Star Trek Voyager.

Where is the Second Chronicles?

Read these books back in the 80’s when I was in high school. it was great to listen to them as audiobooks. Just hope Audible gets the second chronicles some time soon.

Do yourself a favor and listen to the trilogy. This book is the culmination of that great works, well Done well acted and has achieved in audible form all of the passion from the written books.

My first exposure to Donaldson was The Gap Cycle, and if you haven’t given that a listen then maybe you should. But this series was honestly very good. Not my favorite fantasy series, but definitely worth every credit. I’m excited to see where the other books take me. There is a large gap from this book to the next, and with in all that time I know Donaldson continued to master his craft. Also, shout out to Scott Brick. He is so unbelievably talented that I can’t even summarize it. “I am the blood guard” … what a bad ass
