    About this audiobook

    Finding out you are a wizard…

    …is only half the story.

    Alrion answers the call with a mixture of fear and excitement. Finally, a chance to prove himself and discover his true purpose. But his potential was kept a secret his entire life.

    What else were they hiding?

    Tales of the Blight hint at darkness and danger. A mysterious force that sounds like it's from a fairy tale. As he travels Alrion starts to understand the truth. His power is unique, and the spread of the Blight and his emergence as a wizard are not a coincidence.

    Many trials and an impossible quest lay ahead of Alrion. Can he rise above his lack of training and overcome the twisted creatures of the Blight? Or will he falter and suffer a fate worse than death?

    You'll love this action-packed fantasy adventure because of the interesting magic system, the steady growth of the lead character, and the surprising twists and turns.

    Get it now.

    Pool of Knowledge is book 1 of The Hidden Wizard Series.

      It's got to have to worst narrator ever. Heavy accent, and every voice is the exact same monotone.

      I enjoyed the development of a small town boy coming of age and finding his purpose. I will definitely be putting the book on a read again list. Beyond that it is a great book to recommend to friends and others.

      This is definitely a book a 14-15 teen could read and enjoy. As I approach my thirties the imagery and imagination doesn’t escape older readers.

      One theme that I enjoyed was, “Youth find a personal voice when they know the purpose and legacy of their elders.”

      As this is part of a series I look forward to what’s in store in later books.

      If you have any questions, or are interested in a book club let me know.
