Dart Horowitz had always dreamed of becoming a Kingsguard, but he never imagined just how dangerous his training would become. When he's given the task of escorting Ava, the last Ancient of the Celestials back to her home in the sky, Dart finds himself thrown into a perilous adventure that could have dire consequences for humanity.

Pursued relentlessly by an evil being who will stop at nothing to capture Ava, Dart and his charge must use every ounce of their strength, courage, and wits to survive.

From the desolate wastelands to the treacherous mountains, they face one danger after another, never knowing who they can trust. Will they make it to their destination in time, or will the world be plunged into chaos?

This thrilling tale of adventure, magic, and heroism will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final tick.

This was honestly everything I wanted A Game of Thrones to be. And I really enjoyed the narrator.

Better than A Game of Thrones

A Kingsguard Tale is wonderfully read and a strong start to a swords and magic fantasy series. Allen has solid writing and a intriguing world with a fun cast. The non-linear storytelling took me a little to adjust to, but fleshed out Dart's past and relationships nicely. If you are a fan of epic fantasy adventure, this would be a good listen for you.

A fun listen

first, this story can be read by a wide audience and is well told. it's appeal crosses boundaries of traditional fantasy and science fiction, and G. F. Allen doesn't load the story with unneeded explicit language.
Dart's rise is natural within the take and he brings along a well-rounded cast.
I would recommend A Kingsguard Tale to anyone interested in a heroes journey.

a classic arc brought with modern flair

The storyline was very clever

The concept of this world is interesting, but the pacing, exposition drops, and odd focus makes it really hard to get into. it jumps around very randomly and there's a lot of pointless filler that does nothing. Beyond this, I'm pretty sure it was partially written or edited by AI due to a few passages which make very odd choices to describe the situation as well as forgetting plot points established early on

It's chaotic and unfocused
