Summary
Brion never meant to start a war.
But when they murdered his parents and enslaved his sister and his sweetheart, they left him no choice.
Brion of Wexford is the son of a crippled trapper living a quiet life on the edge of the vast and unruly heathland. But when Salassani raiders destroy his world, he must venture into the heathland to attempt the impossible task of finding the girls, rescuing them, and conveying them safely home across hundreds of miles of enemy territory. Now Brion finds himself pursued by men bent on his destruction, deprived of his protectors, and haunted by the knowledge that his murdered father has hidden a dark secret that could reshape Brion’s entire identity. Brion must find a way to stay alive long enough to get the girls safely home.
This is an adventure series perfect for fans of John Flanagan’s Ranger's Apprentice, J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, T. H. White’s The Sword in the Stone, Christopher Paolini’s Eragon series, and George R. R. Martin’s Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series.

Enjoyable story, but not well written or narrated
I have to say i enjoyed the story, and listened to it over 12 hour car journey. However JW Elliot is a poor writer with certain scenes coming across like a literal version of a wooden actor. I think this is largely why the narration suffers. I also think some of the voices/accent chosen by Jim Byrne are poor choices. It's the rushed dialogue which is poor and unrealistic and hard to swallow rubbish.
Anyway...because I had enjoyed this audio book's storyline -and lets be honest we all like the odd film and TV program that we know are poor-I bought the second. THIS IS WHERE IT STOPS!!! 10 minutes in and I could not stand it anymore. Maybe because of now being safe at home now rather than having as a "pass the time" driving book on the road, i don't really know, but this second book is dire stuff. So I'm sending it back. If you do want a GOOD and well written fantasy check out MALICE by John Gwynne, but leave this one out. It sort of sounds like it's the quality of an amateur self publication
