Publisher's summary

Four set out, one is dead, another is barely holding it together. Still, in the face of tragedy, to save the modern world, Alexander Grant is more determined than ever to stop Elam Khai, Peter Kroll, and anyone else who stands in his way. Having lived over 1500 years, our teenage hero knows a bit about history. But as much as he’s trained, seen, and experienced, nothing has prepared him for what he’s about to face.

In this third installment in the Battle for Forever series, League of Auld, the stakes are higher, and the action more intense as Alexander, Phoebe, and Renika, along with their band of misfits, confront some of the deadliest warriors the world has ever known. This edge of your seat adventure follows Alexander and his companions as they journey through a dangerous landscape where it seems everyone is after them. To stop the sinister plot designed to protect the future for a select few, they form new allies, face old foes, and uncover a shocking truth.

Humor, action, and history collide in this pulse-pounding penultimate book in the BFF saga where Alexander will have to lose everything if he is to have any chance at all to win the Battle For Forever.

The wait is over

It definitely took me a while to get use to Ray Porter’s voice after Wil Wheaton narrated the first two books. Most of my questions were answered in this book. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I have new questions. Can’t wait for book 4.

I really enjoyed this book

There are moments where I laughed out loud, much to the dismay of ppl who couldn't see my earphones. This was such a good listen. I have already recommended the series to other people based on this book. I liked the 1st two. This one I loved.

Book Doesn't Feel Like Same Storyline

Ray is an awesome narrator, but Wil should've finished the original 3-book set. Instead a new narrator combine with a inconsistent storyline (compared to books 1-2) and make for a very confusing conclusion, which ultimately does not conclude. I thought this was planned as a three book series. In any case, book 3 killed my hopes for an epic story conclusion. After this bate & switch, I doubt I'll spend any more money on this series wherever it goes.

Loved the first 2 - struggled with this

First of all, I love the original reader, Wil Wheaton - but Ray Porter is my second favorite reader of all time - so this wasn't a disappointment. I loved the first 2 books and listened to them both in 2019 when they were released. But that was 4 years ago and I've listened to over 100 books since then (many in this genre) - so while I remembered the plot, it was really hard to drop back in - my suggestion before reading / listening to this is to re-consume the first 2 before attempting this. And if you're new to Edward Savio there is absolutely no way you could start with this book and have any idea what it's about - unlike other series, having consumed the first 2 is an absolute requirement.

I found League of Auld to be very complicated - not just because I couldn't remember all the characters as clearly since the last time I read this in 2019 but there were so many old / new characters to keep track of, so much happening quickly all around the world - it was really hard to follow and I did not enjoy this as much as others. The main character Alexander has gotten extremely high-maintenance and whiney and I lost alot of connection with him from the earlier books. He would his dad, 10 seconds love him again, 10 seconds after than hate him again - over and over - it was confusing (to me) to remember how he felt about everyone given what seemed to be dramatic mood swings and an insistance to have the complete context of everything going on at any given moment..

Overall - was disappointed with this 3rd book but would definitely recommend reading if you're a fan of the first 2. Just reread them both before reading this one - it will help you appreciate this one more I think.

A worthy installment!

Let me start out by saying I don't normally leave reviews. I know, I should. I don't. Normally. But this series caught me by the heartstrings and wrapped itself in the thinky part of my brain from the first moment and hasn't let go since.

Battle For Forever is one of the series that has gotten me through the pandemic and I really do read/listen to it often. The characters are gripping. Some because you love them, some because they are evil in a way that has you cringing as you recognize pieces of yourself or of humanity. The action is non-stop. The plot is fresh but feels plausible. It is an enjoyable re-read as there is enough going on that you catch nuances you missed the first/second time. This is not a light series, there is so much to examine and think about. But you will also laugh out loud. A lot. This balance of humor and deep, emotional and moral substance impresses me and keeps me coming back.

Switching narrators part way through a series is always difficult; jarring. Ray does a good job with this though. I won't give him 5 stars, but it would be 4.5 if we could give half stars. I feel it took him a bit to get the pacing of Edward Savio's writing down. I am also not sold on a couple of his woman's voices. But these are not egregious issues and I did really enjoy his performance. He keeps his voices distinct, which is so helpful with the multiple characters Savio dumps into scenes.

I love this book. I love this series. I recommend it to anyone who will listen to me talk about it. Bring on book 4!!

Daniel is not longer the comic relief

Ray, I think your voice is fine, my only recommendation is that for the first two books, Daniel was presented as a comic relief - the Falstaff. It added interest to the book. You have him as a serious person. If you do another book in this series, I strongly recommend you give this a second thought. Ron
