The half-mad Prince Boleso has been slain by a noblewoman he had intended to defile. It falls to Lord Ingrey kin Wilfcliff to transport the prince to his burial place and to bring the accused killer, Lady Ijada, to judgment. The road he travels with his burden and his prisoner is fraught with danger. But in the midst of political chaos, magic has the fiercer hold on Ingrey's destiny, and Ijada herself may turn out to be the only one he dares trust.

Historia
Thomas Covenant is a leper, a bitter and solitary pariah who is mystically transported to another Earth where time moves differently than ours, one in which magic takes many forms. The Land is threatened by many evils, the most immediate of which is a maddened Cavewight whose subterranean excavations have unearthed the ancient and puissant Staff of Law. More dangerous to the free people of the Land is the Gray Slayer, Lord Foul, the Despiser, who intends to destroy the actual foundations of the Earth that he might wage war against the universe’s creator.

Historia
Ages ago, sorcerers of unmatched power sundered a world into four realms—sky, stone, fire, and water—then vanished. Over time, magicians learned to work spells only in their own realms and forgot the others. Now only the few who have survived the Labyrinth and crossed the Death Gate know of the presence of all four realms—and even they have yet to unravel the mysteries of their severed world. . . .

Historia
When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Captivating
The enchanting first novel in the Katherine Kurtz's epic Deryni world. Masterfully read to bring the characters to life.

Audio version of an old favorite
The Deryni books are a long time favorite of mine. As young Kelson takes the throne after his father's untimely death, unforeseen forces bar the way. Written in high fantasy style yet very approachable, this story begins a long series of excellent books. I was very happy to find it in audio format. The performance by Jeff Woodman is excellent, lending support to an already well-loved story.

A series I always enjoyed
excellent performance enhances a plot featuring the eternal struggle between the weak and the powerful, between corruption and righteousness, encapsulated in a story about the forces of the magical and the mundane vying for supremacy. characters worth knowing.

Not as good as I remembered
One of the problems with revisiting old favorites is that they don't always shine as brightly as I remembered. That's definitely the case with Deryni Rising. I read the book for the first time back in '71, and at the time I remember being fascinated by the characters, the pomp of the Church, and the politics of Deryni-Human relations. Listening to the book over 35 years later, I'm struck by how amateurish this novel seems. The characters in this book generally come in three varieties: Really, Really Good; Despicably Nasty and Evil; and Worm Food. The only character with any depth is Jehana, Kelson's mother, and even her internal conflicts are predictable, after a certain point. Otherwise, the main characters are like windup toys.
Another problem for me was the narration. For some reason, the voice Woodman chooses for Morgan sounds to me just like Richard Burton in Becket. I kept expecting to hear Morgan come out with "We judge him damned with the devil and his fallen angels and all the reprobate, to eternal fire and everlasting pain!" and throw a candle on the floor. Now, I love Becket, and I love Richard Burton's acting, but it set the wrong tone for Morgan. It makes him sound an insufferable, pompous prig.
While I'm not totally happy with this book, I'm glad that Audible has released this series. I'm hoping that they will carry on with the Camber series, so I can see whether I'm equally deluded about the quality of that series.

Great book, interesting twist on medieval kingdoms
Would you listen to Deryni Rising again? Why?
Yes, The combination of magic and the church.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Morgan
Any additional comments?
I like this series, the plot is well thought out and paced appropriately. The mixing of magic and the clergy was well done. I would recommend to anyone interested in fantasy that like medieval settings and it just a little tired of the same bad guys (orcs, goblins ect). Nice to see a human protagonist.

Excellent
I absolutely love the depth of story and the wonderfully developed characters. Kurtz has most assuredly created a classic and moving series. Fantastic!

Pretty Good
I enjoyed this book and had great expectations for the rest in the series. However, it started getting real religious, and while I did get through the 2nd and 3rd book I really lost interest in them and listed to them more as background noise. I bought, but will return the last book.

Good read
I read this book as a teen, then picked it up again thirty years later when I found the used books sitting on a bookstore shelf, seemingly abandoned.
It's a great story, but it was more enjoyable for me when I was a kid and teens will likely enjoy it. I guess we change a bit in our tastes—who knew? Still, Kurtz earned her stripes and deserves credit for producing some classic storytelling at a time when YA was in its infancy.
I listened to the audiobook intermittently, switching back and forth between audio (when driving) and the paperback. Jeff Woodman does a great job with the pace and the character voices, and I highly recommend it.
