Summary

Magic is just one more thing to be stolen....

For over 100 years, the Temple of Ran has been sacrificing young wizards in order to steal their power. When Lorit discovers that he holds the rare ability to use magic, he becomes their next target.

At first, he runs, working to master his abilities on the move so that one day he might be able to resist them. But that was before the Temple targets his beloved sister, Chihon. In order to save her life, he infuses her with his own power.

Now, they're both targets.

Together, they'll battle to make the world safe for magicians everywhere...if they can survive the temple's power-hungry priests. If they can't, their enemy will absorb their magic and become unstoppable.

Experience the start of an epic fantasy series filled with dark magic, sinister villains, and non-stop adventure. It's perfect for fans of D. K. Holmberg, Will Wight, and K. F. Breene.

Good introduction to a great fantasy world

I enjoyed foundling wizard, it is a good introduction to a great fantasy world and I hope the series continues, the characters are strong and although a little formulaic in places I found the story to draw me in and make me want to care what happens next. Although the concepts of the magic system are not new this didn’t mean that the book wasn’t lacking in original ideas and the Author should be rightly proud of the work he has created. Overall I rated this four stars as a good back and I look forward to the continuing to see what the world brings.

An interesting book

I recieved a review copy of this book. The story is good and generally well narrated. The story begins directly in the action, so the world building is picked up as the story progresses.

Fabulous start to the series

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Although this book is aimed at younger listeners YA I am far from that age bracket and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this.
I am looking forward to see where the next books take Lorit and his friends .
As usual Joe did an amazing job with all the voices and pronouncing all the unusual names 🙂
