Ascendant of Shadows — The Hero of Light is officially live on Audible! After months of studio work, the first installment of Nathan’s journey is ready for your earbuds and car speakers. Our narrator, Keith R. Lewis—whose résumé already boasts fan-favorite epic fantasies like Borne on the Blade Audible.com—has poured heart and nuance into every scene. Hearing Nathan, Faelan, Selene, and the rest of the crew step off the page and into full-voice performance was one of those surreal “author bucket-list” moments for me. (Yes, I definitely fan-boyed a little.)
