Review 1: Magician: Apprentice – Riftwar Book 1 audiobook by Squid

As thrilled as I am that the Riftwar Saga has finally come to Kindle, I loathe Feist for going back and tacking on numerous sections that were edited out in the original version. They don’t change the story much, but the additions—especially in the beginning—turn Pug from a relatively somber, quiet apprentice into a total douche.

It’s like Feist saw how George Lucas edited the original Star Wars trilogy for the DVD release and thought it was a great idea. It wasn’t.

Additionally, the e-book conversion for this and following books was done with OCR (optical character recognition—basically scanning each page into digitized, editable text), has left it with multiple spelling errors—place where the correct letter is “e” but the software reads it as “c,” for instance. It’s irritating.

Review 2: Magician: Apprentice – Riftwar Book 1 audiobook by Kindle Customer

It’s been 35 years since I first met Pug, and it is a joy to go back and read again the start of it all from the perspective of one who has seen how it all turns out. “Apprentice” was obviously intended to be a beginning, but it is not an “origin story” in the sense of an author returning to a completed character; Mr. Feist had no idea that his series would grow into what it eventually became. He did, however, republish this volume with some additional material to tie things together a bit more, and it was interesting if not necessarily better to read this version.

The Riftwar books launched the beginning of a golden age of post LOTR fantasy series, to be followed by Weiss/Hickman’s Dragonlance and, of course, R.A. Salvatore’s Drizzt. If a new reader set out to read those three series — others will certainly have different favorites, but those are mine — they will have several years of wonderment ahead.

Review 3: Magician: Apprentice – Riftwar Book 1 audiobook by Denise Webber

The epic Saga begins with Magician, I cannot remember ever waiting so eagerly for the remaining books to be released, except for Eddings and The Belgariad and The Mallorean. Pug is an orphan keep boy who dreams of being a great soldier, like his almost brother Tomas. Fate in the hand of Macros, an almost immortal Magician, has other ideas. Macros guides Pug, and Tomas into a startling new future, where the rewards are immense, but death, and something worse than death is also watching and planning.
