Blood Song

This indie-fantasy hit all the right notes to become a worldwide best seller, launching Ryan into the stratosphere of the fantasy elite -- at least for a time.The following two sequels proved to be serious disappointments for most readers, and Ryan became a sort of one-hit-wonder, never regaining the voice he found with his remarkable debut fantasy book The Blood Song. Still, the narrative power and martial thrill of the first in the series, Blood Song, stands out as one of the better fantasy books released the past decade and gets my recommendation due to the strong emotional performance of Steven Brand and the compelling source material. While the audiobook may not be as good a performance as some of the other books on this list, the quality of the first book make it a book you should absolutely read, or better yet, listen to.If you love The Name of the Wind, you will almost certainly enjoy The Blood Song. The audiobook edition solidifies this book as a great fantasy tale that must be experienced. And there is no better way to experience The Blood Song than the audiobook.
