Description of book
Here starts an adventure that will span lifetimes and worlds. Discover where the story begins.
Raymond E. Feist is an internationally best-selling author.
My name is Pug. I was once an orphaned kitchen boy, with no family and no prospects, but I am destined to become a master magician…
War is coming to the Kingdom of the Isles from another world, bringing with it chaos and destruction. Pug yearns to train as a warrior and fight for his kingdom alongside his foster-brother, Tomas, but instead he is forced to follow a different path: a path that will lead him right into the heart of the enemy. And one that will change the course of the war – and two worlds – forever.
So begins the most epic series in fantasy fiction, a tale that will cross worlds and generations.
Magician is the first book in the Riftwar Saga. The trilogy continues with book two, Silverthorn.

Läsvärd! Uppläsaren gör ett bra jobb och historien är underhållande. Jag tycker personligen att karaktärerna är något tråkiga om man jämför med Brandon Sanderson men ändå helt okej. Rekommenderar.

Classic High Fantasy. Once you get past the very smooth coming-of-age intro, it's actually quite plot driven, with many unexpectable turns of events (and, without spoiling anything, I can assure you that this author takes the concept of character development very far indeed). Being from a different time (1982), it's refreshingly devoid of the bleak, nihilistic cynicism and graphic gore of more recent fantasy fiction. Keeps you turning pages without post-modernistically trying to make you hate humanity. 5/5, great for holidays.

A truly captivating story. Easy to recommend to any who's even moderately interested in epic fantasy stories. Though some might claim bits been lended from other known epic stories, but not any means the story itself! Only criticism I can think of, is that some drastic turns of the plot might be a bit naively accepted by the characters. But then again, I'm a cynic adult listening to this story, writen in my understanding in a way, that even early teenagers are able to enjoy this grand story! Also, extremely well read! Keeping the story very much alive.
