I loved reading this incredibly different story! It is always exciting to read a book and it’s new and different…and the execution is different! It’s amazing to compare this to music. I love music but there’s so many ways to make music that is great to a genre of people! Loved listening to the fun voice sounds as well. Looking forward to what comes next from the author!

Fantastic Fantasy
Strong characters, very engaging story. This story has it all from suspense, drama with lots of twists and turns. Love how the author paints such an amazing story. Looking forward to the next book in the series. Recommend to those looking for a great magical and adventurous read.
I’ve read Magic-Price and The Crown of Stones series, but I wanted to listen to it because I love this series! The audio book did not disappoint. The narrator for Ian Troy brought Magic-Price into a whole new light. I loved getting to re-meet all my favorite characters.
I highly recommend reading Magic-Price if you love epic high fantasy. The main character is not perfect and is trying to atone for his prior sins. There is magic, love, friendship, and forgiveness.
5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wonderful fantasy story that is perfect to listen to. Magic, mayhem, drama, danger and suspense that had me totally engaged listening to see what happens next.
Ian Troy is a bounty hunter that is living in exile…paying the price of war. When his past comes crashing in will Ian Troy protect his people and land within his magic when he sworn off to use it…..
Wonderful story and looking forward to listening to more.
Magic-Price by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Ian Troy is a Shinree addicted to magic. He stumbles across an instrument of immense power and pays for it dearly, though it was done with the best of intentions. He trades addictions from magic to debauchery and travels alone through the land until he is forced by an enemy to return to magic to save his land.
I liked this! There was solid world building skill and the book moved fast. I will keep my eye on this author.

All he wanted was to end the war. Fate had other plans.
Ian Troy is one of the Shinree, a fallen race born with an addiction to magic. Enslaved and drugged to suppress their deadly desires, the Shinree live to serve their masters. After years of forced combat in Rella’s long, brutal war, Ian is desperate for peace. With defeat imminent, he defies orders and wields the Crown of Stones, an ancient relic of untold power. Ignorant of the artifact’s true nature, he ends the war, but pays a terrible price.
A decade later, Ian is still running from the blood in his veins and on his hands. Curbing his cravings with wine and regret, he struggles to forget. But when a fateful encounter with a pretty assassin brings him down that dark path again, Ian’s addiction is awakened–and denial is no longer an option.
With the realm he gave up everything to protect once more in jeopardy, Ian becomes embroiled in a violent race for control of the Crown of Stones. As the deceptions unfold, his path becomes clear: to save the realms, Ian must embrace the one thing he fears most: his own power.
Magic-Price is the award-winning first installment in The Crown of Stones trilogy.
