Summary

HE PLANNED TO OBLITERATE AN ENTIRE CITY. HE THOUGHT NO ONE COULD STAND IN HIS WAY. BUT HE HADN'T HEARD OF RIYRIA.

When a master-craftsmen dwarf is fired, he threatens retaliation. The rogues-for-hire known as Riyria are commissioned to find and stop him. Traveling to the paradise resort of Tur Del Fur, the two are granted a lavish allowance that, along with the easy job, promises to turn the trip into a vacation.

Everything would have been perfect except that the disgruntled employee’s last name is Berling and the target of his wrath is the legendary towers of Drumindor.

It's been more than five years since the last adventure with Royce Melborn (a cynical ex-assassin) and Hadrian Blackwater (an idealistic ex-mercenary), a pair whose bonds of friendship are bound with blood. This is the 20th novel based in the world of Elan and the fifth in the Riyria Chronicle series.

Listening to Drumindor felt like reuniting with old friends you hadn't seen in years. The chemistry between Royce and Hadrian was nothing short of brilliant, with dialogue that was both fun and refreshingly genuine. Their witty banter and heartfelt moments brought the characters to life, making every exchange feel natural and engaging.

While the story is a bit slower-paced, with fewer high-action scenes than some might expect, it more than makes up for it by delving into a rich tapestry of background history and world-building. The slower moments allow the narrative to breathe, offering fascinating insights into the lore, characters, and setting. This depth adds a layer of immersion, making you feel like you're truly exploring a living, breathing world alongside the characters.

The narrator did an excellent job (as always) of capturing the distinct personalities of Royce and Hadrian, adding depth to their interactions and enhancing the overall experience. Whether it was a humorous quip or a serious discussion, the delivery made it feel like you were right there with them.

The balance of humor, heartfelt moments, and intriguing lore makes Drumindor a rewarding experience for listeners who appreciate character-driven storytelling and immersive world-building. Highly recommended for fans of fantasy adventure and strong character dynamics!
