About This Audiobook

TurtleMe’s *The Beginning After the End* is the kind of series that makes you forget you’re listening to an audiobook—it’s a marathon of adrenaline, strategy, and raw power wrapped in a narrative that never lets up. Books 3 and 4, *Beckoning Fates* and *Horizon’s Edge*, push protagonist Arthur Leywin to terrifying new heights as he grapples with godlike threats, the weight of leadership, and the cost of immortality. If you crave a fantasy where every battle feels earned, where world-building isn’t just window dressing but a weapon, and where the stakes escalate like a chess match on a global scale, this is your next obsession. Travis Baldree’s narration is the frosting on the cake—a performance so immersive it’s easy to forget he’s not dozens of characters breathing life into every scene. The pacing is relentless, the tone shifts from gritty to grand without missing a beat, and the emotional gut-punches hit harder because the acting sells them raw.

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill power fantasy where the hero waltzes to victory. Arthur’s victories are hard-won, his mistakes painful, and his growth the kind that lingers long after the credits roll. The magic system feels tactile, the cultures are vividly distinct, and the lore drops like breadcrumbs in a labyrinth—just when you think you’ve got it figured out, the maze shifts. For listeners who want their epic fantasy with muscle and mind, this is a masterclass in keeping you glued to the headphones for 13 hours straight.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Travis Baldree isn’t just narrating this—he’s performing it. His Arthur Leywin is a study in controlled intensity: weary but never whiny, determined but not blindly so, and Baldree nails the difference between a man carrying the weight of the world and a god testing its limits. The side characters are where he truly shines—each voice is distinct, from the gravel-throated rivals to the ethereal mentors whose tones could chill or soothe in a heartbeat. The production quality is flawless; sound effects are subtle but effective, and the pacing never drags, even in the densest exposition scenes. That said, this isn’t perfect. The middle stretch of *Horizon’s Edge* lingers a little too long on political maneuvering, and while Arthur’s internal monologues are compelling, some passages could’ve benefited from tighter editing to avoid repetition. The payoff, though? Absolutely worth it. By the time Arthur faces the series’ first truly apocalyptic threat, Baldree’s voice cracks with exhaustion right alongside him—it’s the kind of performance that makes you pause, replay, and remember why you fell for this story in the first place. If you’re on the fence, try the first few chapters. You’ll either be hooked or questioning your life choices within the hour.
