Publisher's Summary

Life is simple in Ben's small town until an attack brings the arrival of exciting strangers straight out of a story. Before Ben understands what is happening, he embarks on a dangerous journey to help his friends. A mage, demons, thieves, and assassins are just a few of the perils he will face while trying to make it to safety. But things aren't always what they seem, and safety is a fragile concept when the destructive behaviors of the powerful are exercised unchecked. In Ben's world - like our own - politics, the economy, and military might create a system to keep the elite in power at the expense of the common man. As the series unfolds and Ben's knowledge and skills grow, he will have to decide if he wants to live within the system, flee from it, or break it.

Heavy handed moral tale

I really tried to enjoy this book but it’s tedious The weiting and storytelling is quite good but the constant moral judgement and justifications are monotonous and patronising. I did not enjoy this book at all. The narrator’s performance was excellent. Pop

bit hard to follow

I don't know if the author meant it this way, it the audio book was not in order, but the flash forward then back was very confusing.
