Torn from a life of comfort and luxury, his family destroyed by political intrigues and aspirations, a young boy must quickly grow into a man before the deadly streets of Southport devour him. Follow Azerick through a non-stop adventure that pits him against thieves, thugs, murderers, and men of power that will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
Azerick must fight just to survive, but for him survival is not enough. A hunger to avenge the wrongs committed against him burns deep within. But that is not all that lies within the young man. There is a power waiting to be unleashed that may be the key to achieving the justice and security he seeks...if it does not destroy him first.

Wow, what an excellent tale!

Having listened to another book by the author that I enjoyed, I had high hopes for this novel. Unfortunately I didn't feel that this was as strong as Shrouds of Darkness.
Title:
The title was a bit misleading as the whole concept of sorcery doesn't come up until the very end of the book.
Narration:
This is one of the few books where I found it difficult to multitask while listening, because the narrator seemed to be rushing through all the text. I tried to slow it down on my iPod but the voice became too distorted. It made it hard to focuses on the story. He also mispronounced a few words, the tonality was sometimes off, and at times I could hear a slight echo suggesting that he wasn't in a sound proof room while recording.
Story:
This story didn't start for me until 7 hours into the recording. When he goes to school and starts learning about magic, I was intrigued and wanted to learn more. Until then, it felt like one of any number of other fantasy novels featuring an orphan surviving on the streets. Up until the protagonist goes to school, I felt like it was kind of a bait and switch story given the title. You'd expect a magic heavy book about a protagonist learning about magic things. That's not this novel. This also could have benefited from a few more editing passes, to add more contractions to make the dialogue sound more natural. I really wish the last third of the book was stretched out into at least double its length, and everything before that was compressed. With that, and the editing of dialogue, this could have been a solid 4* novel. As it is, I could take it or leave it.

I thought this was a decent start to a series. It did a good job of world and character building. The narration was pretty good too. All in all, it was an entertaining story and a good experience. I would be open to more in this series.
Good start to a new series

Entertaining Story And Performance...

The story is a solid start to a series and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t looking forward to the second book. This is not a book for children. If this were a movie and everything was shown, it would be R for gore/violence. There is some attempted rape but nothing is written in a revealing manner. There aren’t any super rough language outside of bastard (no Fbombs) and other language is borderline medium at worst.
A good mix of fast and slow paced, I’d recommend this book if you enjoy books revolving around magic and the like. Bring on book two!!
