Stealing a shard of a dead god’s blood should have been enough adventure for a lifetime. For William Reis, it was just the beginning.
William has a single goal in his life, to succeed where generations of others have failed, and gain admittance to the Smithing Guild of Palnor. Men and women from the Reach have tried for years, but all have failed. They have failed for a single reason, a commandment from the Church of Amder. No one from the Reach can ever gain entrance to the Guild. A decree that remains unknown all but the Masters of the Guild, and even they don't know why.
Williams’s efforts make him a target and unleashes a violent and insane evil that needs one thing to claim the world, the end of the Reis bloodline. From the heights of the city of Ture, to the depths of the dungeons of the Temple of Amder, William must find a way to survive.
As he faces his own wavering resolve and long held grief, William must vanquish all who oppose him. To release those who have been corrupted, to stop the return of an ancient and sadistic evil, and to heal the world of Alos, William Reis must accept a fate he never wanted.

Now for the story ... this is pretty much a standard fantasy trope executed well. The world building was solid and revealed through character interactions or dialog (I didn't notice any info dumps, so I must assume they were appropriate when they exist). Main characters were well developed and fairly independent of each other with the expected growth for the main protagonist. The story ended well (yes, I am a sucker for good endings) and wrapped upon most of the major plot conflicts in this book, so it can easily stand alone (with the epilogue introducing a possible sequel); that was also well done and is another common complaint I have with current fantasy stories. I highly recommend this story and I am looking forward to the sequel!

Joshua C. Cook has set the stage for what is sure to be an epic series. I hope there is more to come!
This was my first listen performed by Eric Bryan Moore. I was entertained and would not hesitate to listen to more of his work.

This book didn't start out easy for me. Nothing to do with the story that's FANTASTIC but the narrators attempt at Scottish brogue just rubbed me the wrong way!! LOL
I don't know if I got used to it or he got better at it but i was able to let that go and get on with the story! I have to say i loved this story and can't wait for book 2 to come out.

The narration by Eric Bryan Moore is great and fits the tone and style of book quite well. The character development and interaction between characters is also well done. I would definitely recommend this book as it was quite enjoyable and a great start to the Forgemaster Cycle, I am very interested in further installments.

BoaFG still a story about Will trying to achieve his life long goal of becoming a Guild Blacksmith, something people from The Reach never could do. What follows is a Will being thrust into an ancient war, dead gods looking to be resurrected, church and guild political battles and one boy just trying to live his best life.
While it looks like there are more books in the series, this is a solid stand alone I would highly recommend.
