Publisher's summary

"The Sorcerer's Ring has all the ingredients for an instant success: plots, counterplots, mystery, valiant knights, and blossoming relationships replete with broken hearts, deception and betrayal. It will keep you entertained for hours, and will satisfy all ages. Recommended for the permanent library of all fantasy readers.” - Books and Movie Reviews

This bundle includes the first two books in Morgan Rice’s #1 best-selling fantasy series, The Sorcerer's Ring (A Quest of Heroes and A March of Kings).

A Quest of Heroes, book number one in The Sorcerer's Ring, revolves around the epic coming-of-age story of one special boy, a 14-year-old from a small village on the outskirts of the Kingdom of the Ring. The youngest of four, the least favorite of his father, and hated by his brothers, Thorgrin senses he is different from the others. He dreams of becoming a great warrior, of joining the King’s men and protecting the Ring from the hordes of creatures on the other side of the Canyon. When he comes of age and is forbidden by his father to try out for the King’s Legion, he refuses to take no for an answer - he journeys out on his own, determined to force his way into the King’s Court and be taken seriously.

But the King’s Court is rife with its own family dramas, power struggles, ambitions, jealousy, violence, and betrayal. King MacGil must choose an heir from amongst his children, and the ancient Dynasty Sword, the source of all their power, still sits untouched, waiting for the chosen one to arrive. Thorgrin arrives as an outsider and battles to be accepted and join the King’s Legion.

Thorgrin comes to learn he has mysterious powers he does not understand - that he has a special gift, and a special destiny. Against all odds, he falls in love with the king’s daughter, and as their forbidden relationship blossoms, he discovers he has powerful rivals. As he struggles to make sense of his powers, the king’s sorcerer takes him under his wing and tells him of a mother he never knew, in a land far away - beyond the Canyon, beyond even the land of the Dragons.

Before Thorgrin can venture out and become the warrior he yearns to be, he must complete his training. But this may be cut short, as he finds himself propelled into the center of royal plots and counterplots, ones that may threaten his love and bring him down, and the entire kingdom with him.

Hardly believe it.

I saw a bunch of reviews talking about how amazing this series was so I wanted to give people my perspective. I know people like different writing styles, and that some people will like this book, but I kind of wish I was warned at least a bit. I love epic fantasy, and this book fell very short for me.

This series leaves you on the edge of your seat constantly in a very bad way. Half the chapters are left with cliffhangers and then you are taken to another point of view. The resolutions, if they actually come are lacking as well. The characters are fairly simple. They are either really good, or really evil. The good guys are easily tricked or mislead. That misunderstanding troupe is used liberally. If anybody hears anything from an obviously evil person they will for some reason believe it. They will never have a real conversation to the person that is slandered instead they will just say the other person's name instead of trying to explain. These parts made me want to tear my hair out. The people in the world do not act like normal people. The storyline is straight all the way through. The boy wants to become a warrior and goes through warrior training. He finds out that he has a very great talent in magic, but instead of trying to figure that out he just does warrior training. By warrior training I mean talking about how good friends they all have become and some saving the other characters via dues ex machina. Also they talk constantly about how hard training is. The world to me just did not make sense. Part of it was because when they find someone that is obviously a sorcerer and that he needs to be protected they do the opposite. Conversations where they discuss the main character or talk to him have no effect on what he does or what they do about him. The magic is unexplained at least through the three books I have read, but is constantly used to get out of any sticky situations or to foretell something. The amount of times the main character felt a fire inside him like he never knew he could feel was way to often. Certain phrases were used so often that they made the characters look like idiots. The amount of things the characters can hardly believe was infinite. Expect no conclusion after a book, but only another cliffhanger that will probably not be resolved for a few more books.

In the end these books gave me the feel of a filler episode on TV. I have never read so many words with so little substance and I read my own review........ Anyways I just can't recommend this series. It is very troupe filled, with things as love at first sight, mysterious old mentor who speaks in riddles, pets the character receives that save his life constantly, lots of whining, and dumb misunderstandings.

Excellent book!

This was a great read! I'm rather picky about the books read I like to check out the reviews first you get an idea of what I'm looking at. Most of the reviews on this were really good except for a couple that says it was repetitive and not a good read I found it to be the opposite. The book were entertaining, captivating and well written with great narration. Highly recommend and I'm looking forward to reading the other 15 books in the series.

Absolutely love Morgan Rice and Wayne Farrell together!

Typically I only ready historical romance but I thought I would give this a try. Didn’t realize what I was missing!! I love Morgan Rice, but must be narrated by Wayne Farrell!

Just Don't, you'll be sorry, read below

First and foremost, I've never EVER left a bad review and I have read hundreds of titles. This series is bad enough for me to break that. Secondly, since I spent $200 on the whole series and gave it a fighting chance, start to finish, I'm entitled to my opinion and hope I can warn someone from making my mistake. I try to be fair and respect every authors time, energy, emotional investment, and literary style- this one.. I'm sorry, I have to speak up. It's annoyingly inconsistent and some things don't make sense. For instance, it's set in a fantasy world, not earth, and in some time frame of magic and swords- so how did he "spin on a dime". What's a modern American currency reference doing in this setting? The champion knight (on his wedding day) was stabbed once through the chest by an assassin as his bride to be watched before the assassin fled; literally opening sentence of next book something to the effect of Alistair stared in horror at her beloved "riddled with holes"... um I thought he was stabbed once, where did we suddenly get "riddled with holes"? Does the author even read what they write? How did the editor, assuming there is one (and I have my doubts considering there's more flaws than I can list riddled throughout EVERY book), not catch this? Story line is pretty generic- bad guys always loose, good guys never die or if they do they always come back to life, every arrow and sword thrust always hits its mark perfectly the first time... it's just painful to read. Promise you I'm not being over critical- read about 2 books, if you must, and you'll see exactly what I mean. I don't expect every author to be a Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson, Robin Hobb, Brian D. Anderson, Terry Mancour, Kel Kade, Joe Abercrombie, or Mark Lawrence, but damn, give me something better than this for $200 please! It's like a middle schooler wrote it!

Well done and wonderful narration.

These first two books were interesting and enjoyable. I never believe a seven hour book to be worth a credit. I bought these only because they were a bundle and I was bored with all of my typical interests. I was pleasantly surprised. I will definitely search out more books by this narrator and author. I actually put book three in my wish list because I would like to see where the series goes. I'm still not a fan of such short listens and think they should be bundled if under ten hours just to justify the credit. I will look for them via the library before I pay for them on Audible or wait for them to go on sale at seven hours.

Disagree with most of the reviews I'm reading

I'm reading a lot of bad reviews on this series. I am on book seven. I see where others say it is slow, but there are so many characters in this book if you want to understand how the characters came about you have to go on the journey with them. That is information you will need later. A saga is a journey. Like Lord of the rings. You have to take the journey with them to understand why they are what they are. If you don't like Saga stories you will most likely not like this book. I think it is very well done and I'm enjoying it very much. Hope this helps.

Poor Narrative

The narrator read in a singular voice tone not differentiating between the characters at all.

Just can't get into it!

1/2 way through. Seems kind of dry and basic so far. Just doesn't grab you into the story.
