What if you were born with an addiction to magic? What if your pleasure meant their pain?

The brutality of war was all Ian Troy had ever known. Peace was all he ever wanted. Fate had other plans when it placed the Crown of Stones, an ancient artifact of untold power, into his battle-weary hands. With one reckless wish, he ended a conflict that had been tearing the realms apart since before he was born—and paid a terrible price.

A decade later, Ian is still haunted by that tragic day. Running from the blood in his veins and on his hands, he struggles to forget—what he’s done and what he is. But when a fateful encounter with a pretty assassin brings his past crashing into the present, denial is no longer an option.

Hunted by enemies, old and new, with the realms burning and kings dying, Ian becomes embroiled in a violent race for control of the Crown of Stones. As the death toll mounts and the deceptions unfold, his path becomes clear: To save the realms, Ian must embrace the one thing he fears most...his own power.

Magic-Price is the award-winning first installment in The Crown of Stones, an immersive epic fantasy trilogy.

Captivating with a shocking ending. Following Ian Troy as he navigates how to save the kingdom from war and other powerful shinrees all while battling his own demons. This is a story that will have you wondering what's next. Initially I struggled to get into the book but it didn't take long that I found myself not wanting to stop listening. The narration was fantastic and helped be to tell the story. The character development was strong especially when you think you've figured out a character and it all changes. I am definitely ready for the next bookin this saga.

Just like we all learned from Once Upon A Time, all magic comes with a price. With the main character of this story, he truly had a price to pay with the crown stone he came upon and used in anger 10 years past. He now has to help his people as well as the citizens for magic is beyond the horizon about to be used for evil. There are many dramas with family, enemies, friends, and mutual acquaintances, and every single one is great to listen to. If you like reading about magic, try this one out!

It is definitely a Price

This is not my first audible by this author but it is one of my favorites. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the narrator’s different tones of voices for the characters. I also enjoyed how engaging they made the story. It is a fast paced story that took me on an adventure that I had to know more about. This is a story about magic, fantasy, and mystery. This story has action, excitement and meaningful. Ian Troy is addicted to magic, born to be a slave and his magic is used only as it serves the purpose of other people. What will happen when he meets a beautiful assassin? When he comes face to face with his own power, what will he do? I really enjoyed this audible. I can’t wait to listen to the next book in this series. I highly recommend this audible.

WoW! I read this as a book but listening to it narrated to it to a whole new level. The narration was phenomenal. The narrators had the attitudes of the characters down to a t. They were just as I had imagined them. I felt that the characters were even more relatable hearing them performed. The author has such a way of writing that her books are guaranteed to be full of sass, spunk and adventure. Not normally a fantasy fan, I have become one with this author, I will be reading more of this series, hopefully listening. The story was fun and full of adventure. The descriptions kept me going and rolling with chuckling laughter and "ew". I recommend this story for just flat out anyone looking for a good adventure. You'll love it.

Fabulous story!

I loved reading this incredibly different story! It is always exciting to read a book and it's new and different...and the execution is different! It's amazing to compare this to music. I love music but there's so many ways to make music that is great to a genre of people! Loved listening to the fun voice sounds as well. Looking forward to what comes next from the author!

I've read Magic-Price and The Crown of Stones series, but I wanted to listen to it because I love this series! The audio book did not disappoint. The narrator for Ian Troy brought Magic-Price into a whole new light. I loved getting to re-meet all my favorite characters.
I highly recommend reading Magic-Price if you love epic high fantasy. The main character is not perfect and is trying to atone for his prior sins. There is magic, love, friendship, and forgiveness.

Love this series!
