Got this while it was free on audible (thank you to the author for that). A really quick and fun listen. Plus a intro into his Legends series for those who have not read/listened to, which I highly recommend.

This had everything I wanted in it. I love Suri and her adventure was more exciting than even I expected. Like all things Suri, she goes exploring and finds more trouble than she expects.
Her enthusiasm and wanderlust are perfect for anyone who misses their childhood excitement, or who want to explore.
This is a great little extra for anyone who loves Michael Sullivan’s work, or misses the Legends of the First Empire series. Or, for anyone who wants to follow a young girl and her wise wolf on an adventure.

A quick story that didn't give me much that I didn't know about Suri and Minna after reading just the first book. They are still great characters and I guess it was a free book anyway but I'd say it's not crucial to read it.

A short story following a young girl called Suri and her wolf, Mina. It reminds me of the classic fairy stories, where malevolent spirits lie in wait and you must know the names of things to have power over them.
Extremely well-written and immersive that hints at a much larger, grander, and more ancient world than we get to see here.
I haven’t read any of the “Age of…” books (but I have read The Riyria Revelations) and really like Michael J. Sullivan’s writing style and characters. He perfectly captures the bravery of a child (some would say foolishness) as well as hinting at her powers and the greater things still to come.
Suri discovers something behind a waterfall. Something that might better be left undiscovered.
I loved the mystics, I love the trees (and name of the trees) and the magic inherent in them. It invokes a sense of magic and awe, and that’s what I love in fantasy.
There’s a lot packed into this short, and it was very well done - expertly narrated by the incredible Tim Gerard Reynolds!

This is a fun story with a lot of promise, it definitely has me intrigued about some of the magic that's in Legends of the First Empire. I especially enjoyed TGR's narration of it and bumped it up half a star just for that!
