Story
The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

Story
Fifty years ago, the Earth died. The Earth is now a fertile but dangerous jungle world. Wildlife has prospered, although often in oddly altered forms. Survivors live in underground shelters waiting generations for the environment to become safe enough to emerge. Above ground, the radiation and poison has mutated the few humans that are left, but they do their best to survive for the 20 to 22 years they might live before the toxic planet or disease kills them.

It is strange enough that Odo and Eleanor have stumbled upon a sword in a dried-up river outside their village. It is even stranger that Odo is able to remove it from where it's buried. And it's remarkably strange when the sword starts to talk. Odo and Eleanor have unearthed Biter, a famous fighter from earlier times. By finding Biter, Odo instantly becomes a knight - a role he is exquisitely unsuited for. Eleanor, however, would make a perfect knight - but she's not the one with the sword.

This is more for a younger audience.
I actually really liked this book. I think this is do to the fact that the author moves quite quickly and the book is not really discriptive, which I did not mind. This might also appeal to a younger audience that love action adventure and it has a happy ending.
Somethings in the story I found really hard to believe but it is a story and anything can happen in it and I believe it was intended for a much younger audience, that is not to say that adults will not like it. I was surprised about the ending but also pleased that the author ended it this way, this shows that the girl is mature in some ways and child like in others. I really liked her. would love a story about her when she is older. It would be interesting to see what other adventure she lands herself in.
I would highly recommend this book to all since it is a clean read.
I thought the narrator did a good job in voicing the characters.

A breakthrough for my son
This was EXCELLENT. The story is just the kind I always wanted to listen to when I was a child, with a quaint cottage in the farmland of a beautiful kingdom with a just, kind king, and a young girl who goes on an adventure (with dwarves!) through a dark forest. The mood and atmosphere simply cannot be beat.
The best part, though, is that I listened with my son, who is 7 years old and has autism. Now, I have tried and tried to get my son involved in audiobooks for ages now, for therapeutic reasons (it is beneficial to train his brain to listen to words that are being spoken and translate them to ideas, and also to engage with imaginary worlds), but he always has a hard time focusing and staying involved in the story. We do read print books, but somehow with the audiobook format is different for him, perhaps because it is intangible.
But with this book, for the first time, he listened all the way through! He just enjoyed the story so much that it finally sort of "clicked" for him. We did about a half an hour per evening, and he was always excited for the next session. It has been a breakthrough for us. Now he is listening to audiobooks and becoming engaged with the characters all the time!
I just cannot say enough wonderful things about this book. It will remain a cherished favorite for my family forever. Thank you.
P.S. The narration is excellent. Also, despite some complaints, the production quality is not bad. There is a bit of air noise in the background, but if my son can get used to it and not be bothered in the slightest, I think anyone can. Please don't let it discourage you from this wonderful book.

Great Story and Refreshing Break
Lately I've been listening to long complex books with a lot of drama, betrayal and not always a happy ending, so this is a refreshing break. It's short, but it's a good story with strong feelings and a happy ending. It might be intended for a younger audience, but it is still a pleasant listen. There were some production problems in the recording quality, but it was a minor thing. Recommended. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Great ya book
The worst I can say is the narrator sounds like he is talking into a tin can. The story itself is fine for a young adult. Would think middle school. The story line is good and again like a story with the girl as a strong person willing to give all. Narrator did good job just did not care for the echo.

Emily, A Sweet Heroine
3.5 stars
I enjoyed listening to the talented Daniel Nicolai narrate this youthful adventure. As noted in another review, audio quality isn’t excellent, but it is above average.
This was a gentle adventure story most youth would enjoy. Vocabulary and pace was consistent for the implied age group.
