      I echo this sentiment. I'm partially self-employed, but I exist most of the time doing odd jobs and manual labor. Being able to listen to these books and immerse myself in the world that this writer has created makes my long work hours fly by. I find myself eagerly looking for the next in each series as I complete them. James E Wisher is a superb writer!

    I am a person who has daily migraines and often can't get out of bed most days. I LOVE to read but often times can't due to my migraines making any light too bright and physically painful for my eyes. So needless to say, audiobooks REALLY help me to pass the time lying in the dark with nothing to do. AND I LOVE YOUR BOOKS!!!!! I've just discovered you, and I am so excited to listen to your whole catalogue :D :D :D My sincere thanks for sharing your work in this way. It really does help make my days better :)

      Hello Jenni with an i. I too am a Jenni with an i but over the last few years dropped to just Jen. My daily chronic migraine and cluster headaches combo don’t allow me to lay in the dark. They don’t let me lay down at all. So I literally sit bolt upright and listen to any books I can find. I lose all focus in my eyes so no way can I read a book. Sometimes I can do simple crochet stitches. I hope your migraines just go away. Have a good weekend and thank you for your comment regarding these books💛

    Dear James, I finally finished this one. Finally as in, it was interrupted several times by your great Rogue Star books :D In between I was listening to this here. Now that I've finished it I have to say that during perhaps the first hour I didn't quite manage to get immersed but I kept on listening. I'm glad I did because that's when the story started to become irresistible :) Impressive stuff. Interesting development. As always, your great imagination that creates locations, worlds and universes is absolutely stunning. And I like the characters. What keeps amazing me is when you go wild creating "your" magic stuff. No limitations. Nice how that slogan "free your mind" works for you - it's been a pleasure and a great entertainment listening to your works. Especially because you slip in funny stuff every now and then, keeping me grinning most of the time :) So, thank you so much for sharing your work and thank you very much for this one - I'm ready for book 2. On it, now. :)👍

    Thanks for remembering to knock that priest on his ass, smug and delusional, an all to common failing. I can't wait to find out what you have in mind for Shale. I'm betting the wolf things didn't finish him and that guy seriously needs his dome kicked in, a large dose of humiliation would make his end even more enjoyable. Stupidity, muscles and ego always result in terrible human beings and they deserve what they get.

    A well written, well paced narrative. I thought the ending was perhaps a bit too simple a resolution given the intensity of the sorcerer and the potential doom of the princess.
    I think that endings are always tricky to resolve well. The Game of Thrones certainly got it entirely wrong and we are all still reeling from that fiasco.
    “Magician” on the other hand I thought did a great job of the resolution.
