I'm proud to announce that I am working with Lynn Pisar at Books in Motion to turn the series into Audio Books. This is a very exciting opportunity which I have been looking forward to ever since I met Lynn at a recent Writers Conference.
"Fate of Thorik" & "Sacrifice of Ericc" have been recorded by the talented thespian Jerry Sciarrio, while the marketing art was developed by Todd Aune. Lynn has assembled a great team and I can't wait for you all to see the end product. They are currently working on the 3rd novel of the series, "Essence of Gluic".
Reviews!
"Engaging, if not groundbreaking, fantasy adventure." - Kirkus Discoveries

In all of his books he seems to use his articulate imagination to illustrate how things look, smell, feel, and touch. This is comparable to the Lord of the Rings author, J.R.R. Tolkien. Wedgeworth seems to create languages, beasts, worlds, terrain, cities, cultures, and interactions on a world-wide scale. These interactions are what make his books so great. Zak & Kristen (Amazon Reviews)

"Fate of Thorik is an epic fantasy adventure that is definitely worth checking out." - Lake Mills Graphic

to discover more about them” - Outlook
“Fate of Thorik” is easy to read and difficult to put down. Wedgeworth keeps the story moving swiftly and is adept at creating characters the reader cares about. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series. - Lyle Ernst, Freelance Journalist
I have just finished reading this (Fate of Thorik) and I must be honest that fantasy adventures have never been one of my favorites in general. The story line is great; it really held my interest right up to the end. The details in this book are amazing. - Kim Scherf, Director of the Farmersburg Library
I was a little concerned as I thought I might not be able to "connect" due to the idea of "fantasy" and I am not used to reading such... however, it did, indeed, grab my interest, and I had to force myself to put it down, so I could accomplish my necessary tasks, today. So, how is that for a testimony from an "old lady"! - Neva Fischer, fan of fantasy
