Publisher's Summary

The mysterious, indomitable warrior? Ruthless criminal overlord? The Riel'gesh - mythical demigod? Dedicated friend and protector?

Equipped with skills far beyond those of the outworlders, Rezkin has been suddenly thrust into a foreign world. The young warrior clings to his only known purpose as he continues his search for any information about his identity and the reason for his existence.

While the hardened warrior scorns both dueling and tournaments, he believes some of the answers he seeks may be found at the King's Tournament, the greatest dueling championship in all of the kingdoms. As he searches for the elusive Striker Farson, who may be the only person alive who holds the clues, the young warrior and his friends embark on a journey fraught with danger, mystery, and intrigue.

Amid fears of the kingdom's economic collapse, rumors of an eminent military draft, and the machinations of a mad, tyrannical king, a new revelation threatens to upend all the warrior's plans.

This book is intended for adult listeners. It contains graphic violence, creative language, and sexual innuendo. This book does not contain explicit sexual content.

Thoroughly worth the listen

A fantastic lead character and action filled plot. Intriguing with drip fed revelations but not so much so as to be frustrating or confusing. No annoying flash backs or poorly contrived dual narratives as often found in this genre.

Looking forward to book 3!

I JUST COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Reign of Madness?

when he revealed himself. Although i find it to be a major cliffhanger, I still think it's a good ending for this book anyways.

Which character – as performed by Nick Podehl – was your favourite?

EVERYONE! He played every character so good, you could definitely distinguish each character by his narration. I couldn't even tell that it was him that was narrating females.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

To be honest, when I listen to a book in audible, I usually finish one book in a month in average. But this series, I finished within a week.(probably less)

Any additional comments?

I would definitely recommend this book if you like KINGKILLER CHRONICLES. Cant wait for the next book. This series will definitely be in my top 3.

An excellent sequel

This book is probably one of the best sequels I've ever read. It just got better and better. More interesting conspiracies and devious plans. The story had me hooked from the start. An incredible read!

Strong finish

Started getting annoyed with some of the characters throughout this book, however I think that's what makes the climax even more powerful. The end is gripping and left me excited for the next book.

Rez is a bit too good in my opinion. Even though his obvious weakness is building relationships, everything seems to be working out for him a bit too easily.

Great performance by the narrator on a wide range of characters.
