Publisher's summary
The idyllic kingdom of Parisia sat nuzzled securely into massive basin in the Great Emerald Mountains. The kingdom was protected by the Darkstone, which blessed the kingdom with generations of peace and prosperity. When the elder dragon Darka Mors steals the Darkstone, the entire realm is shaken. Desperate, the King calls on a group of Seekers led by the Disgraced Knight Vale Lox.
To save the realm and everyone they have ever known from the rising shadows of darkness, the team of misfits must survive hostile lands, enemy armies, unspeakable monsters, and each other. With each member motivated by different goals, can they learn to trust each other and work together? Or will their differences bring about their downfall, and the ruin of all?

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Three months ago, Tansy Bloom quit monster hunting. Since then, she’s been trying to live a normal life (whatever that means), but ending up single, unemployed, and living on a boat outside her godfather’s pub definitely wasn’t part of the plan. So, when Tansy’s ex-husband – fellow monster hunter Rex Barclay – turns up like a bad penny and asks for her help with his latest investigation, Tansy reluctantly agrees. At first, the job appears to be a straightforward monster hunt – following a spate of large creature sightings, Rex believes a werewolf is on the loose in Norfolk.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Carl was a regular construction foreman. Not the worst, not the best, and definitely not the thinnest. Even so, he didn't deserve that heart attack! He really didn't deserve being reborn into a dog-eat-dog world as a dragon. To be fair, it’s nice to be at the top of the food chain. Now Carl just needs to learn how magic works, which monsters are safe to eat, and why his hoard is so important to him. Dealing with change is hard enough, but he has enemy dragons incoming, hostile environments, and foes constantly trying to get bragging rights by taking down a dragon.

It has been thousands of years since beast-kind were united under one banner. The empire encompasses most of the known world, driving out or enslaving the lesser races without mercy. In a state of constant war and conquest, they have perfected the art of battle. For commoner wolf-kind Valian, being accepted and trained in a noble house's army was a dream come true. Without wealth or a family, it was his best shot at attaining honor and glory. Until fate intervened. When Valian discovers he's descended from an ancient and long-thought-extinct line, everything changes.

I struggled every day, looking to put something on the table, but it was my life, and no one had a right to take it. Especially not Eris Lanyer, lord of the city, the very same who was supposed to keep people such as myself safe! The nobleman killed me without a second thought for the sole purpose of testing the blade he had just acquired! So here I am, burning with such a rage at this flagrant lack of justice. My hate is so immense that I'm unable to pass to the afterlife, and so I return as a Revenant.

Wonderful Adventure
This was a 5 out of 5 star read for me! As soon as you start you’re whisked away on an adventure. I’m currently having withdrawals from finishing this book. The way the characters are written they are easy to love and to hate (IYKYK 😒) . It’s hard to pick one character that I loved the most because they were all such an integral part of the journey. Saying good bye at the end was hard 🥺. This book will give you all the feels. I cried, I laughed, I gasped, I had many mini heart attacks. You will be living on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The amount of creativity that went into this book was phenomenal. Hands down Tyler created an epic journey for his readers.
Thank you to the Narrator for bringing these characters to life. His voice was so soothing and creating a different voice for so many different people was amazing! Oh and don’t get me started on RIVIKS songs! That was super special 👏🏽👏🏽
I hope you choose this book for your next fantasy adventure.

loved this audiobook
Sam Legg is a wonderful narrator who manages to give clear differences in the personalities and manners of speech in each character. I have found some audiobooks monotone or flat in the past but this one was certainly not that case,I enjoyed it and look forward to more audiobooks from Legg.

such a great fantasy
This was action packed and full of adventures and battle. I really liked the ragtag band of travelers, the epic quest, the dragons, and the way that they each had their own purpose that lead them to the same place. The way the author interwove their paths throughout the story without giving too much away was really well done. There were some twists and betrayals that I just did not see coming! A great new book to check out!

High Fantasy. Entrancing Narration.
Truly. It was a wonderful change of pace from the romances I've been reading. Fantasy is one of my favorite genres and this hit the nail on the head. It was fantastic. Easy to follow story line. Great world building. Great characters. I laughed at the character's wit and banter.
The narrator was excellent. The voice inflections on the characters was wonderful and he really captured the immersiveness of the story.
I'd gladly listen to him narrate future novels by this author.

Amazing narrator!
2nd read (audiobook): the narrator did an amazing job reading this story! I enjoyed this book even more the second time through.
1st read (e-book): I really enjoyed this book. It was action packed with lots of funny banter. Of course, it had dragons but also elven, witches and a royal family. The quest was unique and a lot of different characters introduced along the way. Overall I thought it was good - some missing pieces but with the budding romance between two characters I feel those parts will be explained in a second book!

Thrilling
Wow what an epic journey! People with different skill sets forced to be together by decree of the king. some brought on along the way. Working to save a nation, fighting all manner of creatures, plus also being hunted! This High Stakes Fantasy is captivating, Vale & Calean are my favorite characters. Im looking forward to the second book.
I highly recommend to those who love fantasy, high stakes, adventures, dragons, and magic!
If this was turned into a movie it might be rated R just for gore lol. Descriptive wise there is not a ton of gore but when you think back about just how much killing there is, It’s definitely up there. Great character development! Wonderful moving storyline & lots of action.
I was able to read the book before the audible version came out and so being able to hear all the characters come to life was just amazing and wonderful and I think it works out really really well. The Narrator does a great job at burying voices for everybody and making it feel like the characters are there with you.

An EPIC fantasy—I’m taking NO criticism! 😤
This was such an incredible story. It’s been a long time since I’ve read a book that has evoked so many feelings in me. I laughed, I almost cried, I was shocked, I felt betrayed…there were so many emotions that I went through when listening to this.
The journey in this book was amazing. All the characters were so well written and the story took me on an adventure that had me gripping the edge of my seat the whole time. Edwards does an awesome job at painting vivid pictures throughout the whole book that you can’t help but feel like you are right there with the whole crew. It was fast paced and FAR from predictable. I came up with theories upon theories only to get them smashed to pieces within the next few pages.
And the characters! They were all SO courageous and funny—the banter between them was hilarious and I couldn’t help but fall in love with each one of them. Of course there were the characters that served as villains, but even those were fun to hate. Grom and Rivik have my heart forever 🥹
Don’t even get me STARTED on the performance of Sam Legg, the audiobook narrator. It felt like he was made to tell this story and the energy that he brought into this made the book that much more entertaining and special.
If you’re into fantastical creatures along with epic journeys and the found family trope, I highly recommend you give this book a try. You will not regret it. You might find yourself reading one of your favorite books of all time. 10 outta 10 would reread again.

Feels like you're in a book/scene
I am absolutely blown away with Tyler’s world building in Shadows of The Realm. I enjoyed every part of this book, from start to finish. This is a huge book filled with tons of quests and an awesome adventure along the way!
The narrator sounds amazing in this audiobook! The way that the book was depicted was *chefs kiss to me. I felt like it brought the book to life for me. I truly felt like I was in the book/scene or watching a movie/show. The way the book was read captured the essence of the voice, era, and the story. It was a really good choice.
Sometimes you end up with an audiobook where the narrator doesn't match the character, and that can really make or break the story. This was really not the case, and even made me want to pull out the reader and read alongside the narrator!
Tyler Edwards’s novel introduces us to the world of Parisia and to our 5 main characters that we follow. The King has formed and has sent out a group of “seekers” to reclaim the Darkstone. The group consists of 5 people. What you would think would be a group of noble and powerful people, you are left with misfits. We have Vale, who is known as the Dark Knight (grumpy if you want to add that into the mix, ha!), Caelan the thief, Azalea the witch, Dante the alchemist/wizard, and Celeste the noble/royal/princess. Each one of these characters have a story to tell, which is great about them. Even though we have them as the main characters, we are later joined by several side characters. Some may find this confusing, but to be honest I think it made it a lot more fun!
I feel like there were times when some characters were meant to make you want to dislike them or hate them, and Tyler made me feel exactly that. What I like about this fantasy story, is that it is far from the typical romantasy that is out at the moment. This book has enemies to friends, all over it. I could be wrong, but I was also getting newfound family vibes. I like that it is highly driven by adventure and its quests. I like that we are focused on building more on each character and their foundation as people, individuals, as a group, and newfound family. I want to say minus Celeste, but maybe she has a purpose of being the nasty person that she is (like I said, unlikeable, ha!).
Let me tell you that when these characters banter, they BANTER. It was probably what made part of the book most enjoyable. It was having to put a set of people together who can’t help, but want to kill each other, only to realize that they need each other. This book gave me Red Rising and the Witcher vibes, and to me that’s an A++ This book was magical, it was enticing, it had creatures, adventure, quests, unlikely heroes, and epic fantasy. I felt like I was not only in the book/scene, but playing a game at the same time. You don’t get many books that make you feel like you’re interacting with it at the same time.
This book is up my alley, and I truly couldn’t have found a perfect book to add to my 5 star 2024 list! I can’t wait to read the next installment.

What a journey!
At first, I wasn’t sure that I would enjoy the single narration of this book. I had been listening to mostly dual or duet style narrations for a while.
I was so wrong. Sam's performance was awesome!
The story, the characters, I thoroughly enjoyed it all. ❤️😊
