Fire Games (Pyforial Mage Trilogy: Book 1) Kindle Edition

Neeko’s quiet evening is interrupted when a fire-mage of the king’s army comes to his door demanding hospitality for the night. She says war is beginning, but this becomes the least of Neeko’s concerns when an altercation erupts between his drunken father and the fire-mage, resulting in his home burned to the ground with his father buried beneath the rubble.

His only justice? A redemption scroll—payment for damages if Neeko can bring it to the king’s master of coin in the capital before it expires. With the war of two kingdoms clashing amid towns, the trek will be perilous, but having a hidden talent for magic, Neeko’s not deterred. Especially so when he learns his recently acquired companion, possessing her own redemption scroll, knows the land better than anyone. She may have a few oddities, like singing her thoughts and stashing weapons in occupied graves, but Neeko would put up with worse to get to the capital in time.

Now if only Neeko knew what really awaited at the capital.

My name is Brian T Narro. I live in Montana with my talented wife, who designs and creates the badass covers of my books.

My newest novel is RESISTANCE ABOVE MAGIC (A LitRPG Adventure). It’s the first LitRPG I’ve written, and also the first book I’ve co-authored. It’s the beginning of a series that is not at all connected to any of my other stories or characters.

If you would like to read or revisit any of my other series, you can begin with any "Book 1" without missing anything too important. Some good starting places are with BASTIAL ENERGY or KIN OF KINGS. You can also start with THE KING'S SORCERER, which follows Jon Oklar in Dorrinthal, the same continent where the new series, Legends of the Tainted, takes place. You can always return to other series you’ve skipped over after finishing any of the more recent series.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite Fantasy Books of 2014
Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2014

After finishing the last page of this book, I put my iPAD to sleep and just had this desire to reflect upon what I had just finished. No spoilers below.

Honestly, the world changing because of war isn't anything new. Neither is the theme of an orphaned young adult caught in the middle of everything. However, throw in a redemption scroll needing to be taken over two hundred miles in fifteen days, a troubled best-friend with a psychopathic brother, and a socially awkward yet somehow always endearing young woman, and you’re just scratching the surface of everything that makes this book hard to put down. I can’t praise it enough.

I just really enjoyed the great characters - who I found contained a ton of depth, charm, and fun dialog. I felt the book's overall plot was extremely intriguing and well paced -- I often found myself saying "just one more chapter, Big Mike" before bed. I found the magic system refreshing, and I loved that it never really serves as an easy answer to any challenge like you find in other books. Just an excellent read overall - I strongly recommend!

Side note - I found the cover and map art to be very well done.

4.0 out of 5 stars not as good as his frist series but not bad.
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2015

This book was good but it was not as good as the Bastial series. There are a few reasons for this.
First is that the protagonist is cloyingly guilt ridden if he spent any more time feeling sorry for himself and guilty over things no sane person would feel guilty for I would have had to drop this rating to a 3 star. Second reason is that some of the characters from the Bastial make cameo appearances; now since I enjoyed the Bastial series one might ask why this is an issue. It is because the new characters are not as interesting as the ones we have gotten to know in the Bastial books and you know that our new hero & heroine would be much better off going back to Ovira (not to mention I would be very happy to read more about Cleave and co. from the Bastial series) and they keep doing everything but the smart thing, there is only so many “face palm” decisions I can take from a hero in a story before I give up on them. The third reason is that the author departs form the 3rd person point of view in the Bastial books to a 1st person POV in this one. Sometimes this is no big deal there are many very good 1st person POV books but in this case as one reviewer pointed out these characters really do seem to stumble from one improbable scene to the next without any rhyme or reason. If this were written in a 3rd person POV the author could give the reader much more information about the events that put the obstacles /situations our hero keeps falling into in place to begin with.
Now that I am done complaining let us get to the good. The prose is good the story manages to move along (despite Neeko’s inner dialog), the dialog between characters does not feel forced or scripted. Our new heroine (Shara) is quirky and fun. Neeko (despite his self-wallowing) is not so entrenched in feeling sorry for himself that he fails to act when needed and when he does take action the author manages to put him in danger and get him out of it without him either stumbling through by luck while being on the verge of getting killed all of the time or being the all-powerful nothing ever goes wrong type, there are many authors in this genre that can’t seem to strike that balance.
Overall I would recommend this book to anyone that liked Mr. Narro’s first books and if you are an older fantasy reader that does not mind reading things from the YA side of fantasy writings this one will not weigh you down with characters that are too full of teenage angst/issues for the rest of the story to be enjoyable, it is a nice light read.

I absolutely loved the first series, I could not stop reading until I reached the end of each book and was eager to start the next. So here I am, once again, in the same predicament,only worse. I could not stop reading and now I finished but this time the next book is not out yet! It will seem like forever just waiting to get started on the next book. Thanks B T Narro to for writing such great stories! I am looking forward for the next book

Great start to the series. I buy a lot of books in this price range as I consider myself an avid reader. That being said sometimes I end up with more quantity than quality. Luckily for me this was not the case here. I really enjoyed this book and plan on reading the rest of the authors work. Thanks for keeping me entertained, I appreciate the fact that you used a lot of magic without making everything too easy and didn't shy away from being a touch gritty.

This was a fun read with great characters.. They're complex and imperfect, making them realistic. Their personalities really come out and continue to develop with the plot. I love this author's style of writing and storytelling, which just adds to how difficult it is to put the book down. Looking forward to the next one.

Well, I enjoyed this story. It moved fast, interesting twist and a complex world. Since I have just started to read this author, I realize that the stories from his other books are inter twined. Characters are developed and there is a budding relationship between the two main characters.

2.0 out of 5 stars really boring
Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2024

I read to chapter 14 then gave up. The magic system’s dull, the MC’s a whiny, unlikeable misogynist. The dialogue is mostly irrelevant, and the action is rare and disappointing.

My first encounter with this author. Very impressive with a good original story line.
I felt involved with the characters.
Now I await the next book as this one, disappointingly, stopped very abruptly and completely without warning.
