About this listen

The prophecies begin to be fulfilled. The Earthsoul weakens, and the demon god Maeon presses his realm ever closer to the world of men. The Veil separating life from death has thinned, and many evil spirits have been refleshed back into existence. Led by the Dreadlord Throy Shadan, these refleshed beings have rallied their forces for one final march against the Nine Lands.

Meanwhile, in the capital city of Trian, a secret society called The Hand of the Dark has risen in opposition to the rightful government. Sworn to Maeon, their goal is the complete destruction of the Fairimor bloodline and the death of the Earthsoul itself.

The only hope against this threat lies in the courage and strength of one young man. Heir of the ancient Fairimor birthright, he must take up a Blood Orb of Elsa and use it to rejuvenate the Earthsoul before the world is swallowed in a sea of death and misery. There is just one problem: He may be as dangerous as the enemy.

Greg Park's vision of the fantasy genre is unique—a carefully woven tapestry of myth and magic, intense action and quiet contemplation that brings to life a rich and varied world.

Brilliantly conceived, with more than six thousand years of history, The Earthsoul Prophecies is a magnificent tale of a dying world's struggle for survival and an insightful look into mankind's proven capacity for good and evil.

Everyone should listen to this book!

I am normally not a fan of audiobooks. But since this is my ALL time favorite series I wanted to make sure the audiobook did it justice. I was very surprised with how much I enjoyed the audiobook. I normally find narrators voices annoying. In my opinion narrators try too hard when reading. So it never sounds natural or authentic. Especially in fantasy books. They always try too hard to be fantasy. But that didn’t happened with this one. I think the narrator did a great job of sounding real while reading. He didn’t try too hard or make up dumb voices for the different characters. He didn’t sound forced or awkward. There was a very natural flow to how he was reading it.

As with any book to audiobook there were definitely names and places I pronounced differently. But that’s always expected. It was always a surprise to hear the difference after so many years of saying it in my head.

There were only a few things that really jumped out at me. And I would have to go back and double check. But throughout the book there were a few names that the narrator switched how he said it from time to time. In the beginning he would say it one way and then slowly throughout the book he would change it. I think I noticed because of how many times I’ve read this book. I know it almost word for word. I don’t think someone listening to this for the first time would notice. But it’s something that caught my attention.

But overall I was pleasantly surprised with how good this audiobook ended up being. I would definitely recommend it to everyone!

Easily one of my favorites.

I love this series so much. To be honest it was the series that got me interested in reading books. I've bought and read all 5 and got my sister into it as well. Greg Park has crafted a fantastic story and universe and I cannot wait to see what he comes up with next. I'll be looking forward to the second book on audible. If I could make it happen, I would make this into a television series. Anyways, definitely 10/10.
