About this listen

Get the Catalyst Books 1-3 Boxset, featuring the first three books in the best-selling epic fantasy series filled with unexpected heroes, dark magic, and nonstop adventure.

Cursed from birth. Forced into slavery. It's time to fight back.

The blood of the Ancients is the most coveted ingredient in all of Damaris. The fabled elixir made from it grants those who drink it life that extends far beyond natural means.

There is no higher honor in the kingdom then being granted the privilege of bidding for it. And the people found with the cursed blood? By law, they are the rightful property of the kingdom.

They are tributes.

As a boy, Ryl was sold by his family when he was discovered to have the coveted blood flowing through his veins. Broken, scared, and confused, he’s confined to an area known as the Stocks until he is ready for harvesting.

Ryl stumbles through a doomed life until the appearance of a mysterious stranger who exposes a buried version of the past that changes everything. That his blood may not be a curse but a blessing.

The fates of all the tributes hang in the balance.

Buy this special edition omnibus to experience a saga with something for every fan of epic fantasy. Suitable for all ages, it's perfect for fans of D. K. Holmberg, Will Wight, and K. F. Breene.

Captivating saga

This was really well narrated and kept me captivated to the point of not wanting to stop listening.
I just need book 4 to be on audible to carry on listening

Fantastic after the initial start

Ok the start was a little bumpy, lots of back and forth with time jumping to get the plot set, but after that it’s a solid story and a really great listen.
I have only returned 2 books and have over 200 and this was nearly number 3 but stuck it out, once you get past the start of book one it is amazing, really really good, in fact up there with the best! Really do recommend! It’s worth the credit

A close 4.5 stars

This was a Travis narration so I figured i couldn't go wrong and although Travis nails the narration ( no surprise there), the story really took quite a long while to get my proper interest.
Maybe the main character a tribute xxxx was just a hit lacking but I think this has more to do how the writer C.J. Aaron wrote the entire world building in such detail.
Suffice to say hang in there as it picks up around chapter 27 as the intrigue surrounding his new found knowledge and what lies ahead brings new life to the story. By the end I was fully engrossed and automatically reached for the search button to find my next hit.
This isn't a new story within fantasy but the world building and some clever edges to the story keeps this a keeper.
Now off to try and track out the release date of the next audio or failing that the book as I really want to find out what happens next.
I requested this audio and have decided to leave my thoughts for everyone to see.

a roller coaster of a tale.

a story filled with highs and lows, including emotional moments to epic battles. Travis Baldree brings the skillfully written work of C.J. Aaron to life!

Incredible

The perfect adventure story, with hints of Star Wars and fable. Can’t wait for the rest of the saga to come to audible.
