Warrior Mage

Chains of Honor, Book 1

By: Lindsay Buroker

Narrated by: Daniel Henning

His mother was one of the most powerful wizards in the Nurian Empire until she abandoned her people to become a notorious pirate. That choice doomed the family she left behind to a life of disgrace.

Yanko White Fox doesn’t remember his mother, but as the only gifted child in the family, he is expected to erase the mark she left on them all. With an affinity for earth magic and communicating with animals, he’s not the most natural candidate to become a warrior mage, but it’s the only sure route back into the Great Chief’s good graces. He has resigned himself to training for that destiny, whether it matches his passions or not.

Long before he’s ready for his first battle, insurrection comes to his distant corner of the empire. Rebels take over the salt mine his family manages and slay the only relative who ever supported Yanko. On the heels of the tragedy, a courier brings a message from the Great Chief’s son. Whether he is prepared or not, Yanko must undertake a quest, one that could save millions of lives…or fail utterly, leaving him dead, his family forgotten, and his people the victims of starvation and endless war.

Good start gets better

The narrator doesn’t all right job, but the story is good The next one is much better. 

not my favorite one of burokers but still great

it went slow and only 17 chapters but still a great listen absolutely love lindsay burokers books

Narrator need to be replaced

I'm only up to chapter 2. I decided to see if I was being too critical of the narrator, but it turns out I wasn't. He does not do this book any justice. I have plenty of other titles written by Lindsay Buroker and enjoyed them very much. I read a review that the second book is better but I'm not sure since the narrator will be the same. Travis Baldree and Vivienne Leheny are better narrators and there are many others,

Fabulous Story

Another awesome story from Lindsay Buroker. She does such a good job with developing characters and making you root for them. It was great to see some charters from the Emperor’s Edge series make an appearance.

Good story poor narration

The voice of the main character was annoying. I couldn’t get to like him at all. I wanted to. Really. But the nasal voice. And well. He just wasn’t likable. Perhaps reading the story might be better as Lindsey deserves better.

Story great. Read it don’t listen to it

A different take for Lindsay. It Ppears to be aimed toward teenagers.

The narration is choppy.

The worst narration possible

I’m struggling to finish this book because the narration is excruciatingly awful. So far I’ve been a big Lindsay Burocker fan. The previous audiobooks did not disappoint, however, I can’t get into the plot because the narrator is butchering it one line at a time. Unless they re-record the series with a different person sadly I won’t buy anymore books in this series.
