Publisher's summary

When an immortal dies no one mourns but people notice.

The shocking death of an immortal sends Collector Mavell, a master of shadows, on a quest for the killer. He believes a foreseer of Drawlen, a religious regime, knows something about the murder.

Jon Therman and his family of sunrock smugglers stumble into this manhunt. A former slave, he only desires to live unnoticed and to avoid the corruption of the world. But when a Drawlen immortal pursues his children, Jon retaliates.

Jon’s daughter, Ella, attempts to rescue her friend from a ritual sacrifice. To do so, she must defy the commands of her fellow smugglers.

Shane zem’Arta, a Freelander spy, searches for his missing commander. His orders complicate Ella’s effort to save her friend and Jon’s mission to protect his family, leading these old friends on a perilous adventure.

Smugglers, rogues, and lords clamber to stand against the Drawlen immortals. Can these fragile factions set aside their mistrust to survive a burgeoning war, or will they fall divided?

Remnant, the first of the four-volume epic fantasy The Palimar Saga, introduces a world of magic, trolls, shapeshifters, and guns. It tells the story of a family’s struggle to survive a manhunt for a godkiller, one who has the power to vanquish immortals.

Fantasy listeners will be enraptured by Remnant, a gripping epic filled with magic, intrigue, and high-stakes adventure. With a richly detailed world reminiscent of works like The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss and The Powder Mage Trilogy by Brian McClellan, listeners will be drawn into a realm where immortals walk among us, and every action carries weighty consequences.

This flintlock fantasy is saturated in suspense and danger. Featuring a diverse cast of characters facing impossible choices, this tale promises an unforgettable journey.

A great story, awesomely narrated!

Massive fan of narrator couple Michael Kramer and Kate Reading, Loved the story and characters too, big focus on family which is not that common in the fantasy genre, I liked that one of the main characters was a father and family man.

A Page-Turner Delightful Fantasy

The duo voice actors for this novel were fantastic. This male/female team for this weighty novel made it easy and enjoyable to follow the multi-POV. Every chapter begins with naming the POV character and sometimes a new POV is named at chapter breaks. So, pay attention to these details, especially at the chapter beginnings when the dates and locations are also given.

The writing style of this novel is tight and action driven, filled with punchy verbs. Each chapter ends with a gripper that is often either a surprise, a shock, or a punch line. I loved the dialogue. It is often pithy, humorous, insightful, or haunting. Humor is threaded through this intense battle-driven story that kept me on my toes and delighted me with surprise.

I loved that the main characters grow into their strengths or powers through training, hard work, determination, or difficult circumstances, rather than the overdone pattern of characters inheriting powers that they can instantly wield after being clueless and resistant. The main characters are varied but all are interesting, complex, and honorable.

The expansive world unfolds through the action that follows the story line of several characters who merge about halfway through the novel. Since the core of the story is a family saga, it’s appropriate for a mature, well-read child who loves fantasy adventure. FYI: there are a few swear words, but if your kids have read Harry Potter (which includes them a few times) they’ll be able to handle this story and its level of evil, darkness, and battles.

It’s an intense, thrilling read that drew me into a world where I cared deeply about the outcome of the main characters. I highly anticipate book two.

FYI: the Palimar Saga author website gives detailed information, such as a map of Palimar and a complete glossary of terms. This was helpful to consult while listening to the story.

I’d sit this one out

The story meandered I couldn’t care or hold my attention to it for very long. If it weren’t for the narrators, keeping me company, I wouldn’t of bothered listening through it. It was really disappointing.

Hard to follow

Hard to follow who was who and their purpose. Usually like this type of story, may have to listen to it again
