Zakhirkoot: The Great Adventure

By: Noah Milhouse

Narrated by: Gabriel Michael, Rebecca Woods

Even before Lightson could begin to understand how he mysteriously woke up in the strange land of Shreik-Daila, he finds that his life is at risk. As he runs into stranger and more dangerous places by the day, he is also supported by new and unusual friends: a dwarf, a lion-bear, a scholarly worm, and a 150-year-old teenage girl. Together they brave the deadly woods of Zakhirkoot, the one place where the writ of the tyrannical king of this realm, doesn't hold. Scuffling with death itself, the five companions seek an old merchant who might have some answers. But soon they find themselves in the midst of an epic battle. This journey teaches them perseverance, sacrifice and wisdom.

Zakhirkoot is the story of this boy's quest to solve this enigma and return home to his mother. Neither the travelers nor the listener will remain unchanged once the adventure reaches its climax.

An adventure awaits

From the beginning the narrator draws you in to this wonderful adventure that can be enjoyed by all ages. You can tell that the writer wanted you to know the characters and their differences, they are described so vividly. This is a great listen, story, and the narrators did an amazing job. I would recommend this book to my family and friends.

Great story! Keeps you hooked!

Great book for all who love adventure and fantasy! Would definitely recommend to all! The narration is really interesting too!

Riveting Story

Great book. This book is nostalgic in an unexplainable sort of a way. It is one of those stories that transport you to a different place and you too will be embarking on a great adventure along with the protagonist. Enjoyable listen in the car with the kids too.

Entertaining and interesting.

I read the novel last year and been awaiting for the sequel since then. Instead came this surprise first. Loved the beginning .... of what I believe is going to be a long long journey with many adventures across multiple realms in many to come books.

Zakhirkoot=Outstanding!

This book was outstanding! I fell in love with all of the characters and was not lost or bored for one second. The author takes you on a trip to some absolutely different worlds that will have your brain thirsting for more. I hope this author makes a series for Zakhirkoot as I truly enjoyed this book. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Awesome adventure!

What a great audiobook. It was a wonderful experience to travel to a new world in this well written story! It’s worth it! I definitely recommend this one.

Zakhirkoot is truly the greatest of adventures

"Everyday this world reminds you of everything you are not, you must put up a fight to not forget everything you are."
This is a gripping adventurous tale that engaged me from page one. I felt I was the running behind Lightson as he encountered peculiar characters with layers of depth and personality. In the background of the mystical journey, the protagonist's chance acquaintances emerged into beautiful friendships with powerful messages of sacrifice, loyalty, and perseverance cloaked in. The characters unrelentingly push forward with leaps of faith, exposing themselves to all the pain, the vulnerability, and the risk. The author masterfully incorporated ballads throughout which elevates the story even further. I felt I must keep listening in one sitting, otherwise I was missing out on this truly extraordinary experience. I can't wait for the author's next release!

Phenomenal!

This is a must for all who love adventure and fantasy! The quality, music track, and the characters are exceptional. Great work!

I just finished listening to the Great Adventure by Noah Milhouse.

The story is about a young boy Lightson, who transforms from a vulnerable boy to a fierce, dauntless hero. The story is very captivating and once you begin, it is hard to stop without knowing what will happen next.
It strengthens your faith in a higher being and is a great reminder to never give up hope and to remain steadfast in your beliefs. The philosophy in the story strongly resonates with my perspective of always standing up for the right.
The story is beautifully speckled with poems and songs that complement the story in a very emotionally strong way. Your eyes might be a little moist by the time you are done!
