Inherited Danger
Brian Rathbone quickly returns to the site, today releasing his second book in his The Dawning of Power trilogy. True to form, he’s giving you all the episodes at once of Inherited Danger:
Catrin leaves her homeland behind as she goes in search of knowledge and peace, unaware that she will face the greatest evil her world has ever known.
Check out Call of the Herald if you haven’t already, as it’s the first book in the series.
Since Brian has made all the files available, you get a choice in how you want to listen. If you want to click and manage the process of getting episodes out of the default feed, have at it. Or if you want to employ a little technology on your site, get a custom feed. Our system will send down a new episode of the book each and every day, or week, or whenever you want. Either way you go, it’s a free serialized audiobook.

I took me awhile to warm up to the Call of the Herald but toward the end I was relieved to see the second book already available. Now were is the third? Your narration is at an excellent pace -not to fast & not to slow – which makes it very easy to follow. I never have to rewind to listen again and your voice is very easy to listen to. I really enjoy the heroine – Catrin is the perfect balance between good & power. The adventure keeps me wanting more and hoping for answers just like Catrin. Looking forward to more-good work. Thankx

Hi AngelEyes,
Thank you for the feedback; it’s much appreciated. I’m currently working on Dragon Ore and will try my best not to keep you waiting long. The week of 8/24/09 is a pretty safe bet. I’ll look forward to hearing what you think of the trilogy’s conclusion!

Thanks Garret,
I appreciate your comment very much. Your kind words and those of others make it easy to stay motivated on an schedule. Speaking of schedules, I think I’m supposed to be editing audio right now. Off I go!

Hi Brian ~ talk about perfect timing. I just finished Inherited Danger and I see that Dragon Ore was just posted. Both your production quality and writing continue to impress. You even offer just enough “meanwhile back on the Godfist”, to keep everything tied together. Dragon Ore is downloading even as I write. Looking forward to coninuing Catrin’s journey.

Hi Jane! Sorry for the slow response. I was charging through Dragon Ore, hoping you wouldn’t catch up with me. I greatly appreciate your feedback, and I’m really glad you are enjoying the story. I hope you enjoy Dragon Ore!

Boy am I hooked to this series. This book series continues to be legendary and profound. I recommend this series to any fantasy, fiction lover. One more time Brain Rathbone amazes me with his writing. He knows how to make you feel the pressure of the characters—the good and the bad. He writes like there’s no tomorrow. It is hard to stop listening. I want to keep to spend my weekend with the third book in the series but… I also want to have it for my commute.
More quotes from Rathbone’s books:
The souls of heroes are forged by the gods and tempered with the pain of life.
Matteo Dersinger, prophet
Darkness, no matter how powerful it may seem, can be driven back by the tiniest spark.
unknown soldier
This one of the most philosophical fantasy fiction books I’ ever read. The quotes which head each chapter add to the depth and character of the story as well as feeding my need to hear the next inspiring or wise thing Brian Rathbone has to share with his audience.

Hi, I just have a question, I just downloaded this book and two others. My question is which if the books should I read first? I’m assuming there’s an order in which I’m supposed to read the books. I don’t want to just start reading the books out of order.
Thanks ^_^

Hi, Willyber! The correct order is “Call of the Herald” then “Inherited Danger” then “Dragon Ore”. I hope you enjoy the story!
