About this listen

From the international best-selling author of The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant comes an extensive and all original new fantasy novella.

Augur's Gambit is a tight and action-filled novella of more than 40,000 words. A novella with all the rich world building and acute characterisation that listeners have come to expect from the man who reinvigorated the whole genre in the 1980s and went on to write one of fantasy's landmark series.

Revelling in the sense of freedom that comes from writing a new creation after the massive, controlled effort of the 10-book epic of the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, this is a novella that will both delight existing fans and win new listeners for Donaldson's uniquely rich and intelligent fantasies.

The writing

Donaldson is a master of suspense, playing random complex cords that meld into a complex symphony of images and tension. The reader is intense, the pace and phrasing picks you up and casts you like paper into wind
