Richard is an average fifteen-year-old from the hills of Ohio whose biggest concerns are studying for tests and asking Becky out next Saturday.

A moment later, the sofa shoots straight up into the air, passing like a ghost through the house and then soaring into space.

Richard Drumm might still look like a normal fifteen-year-old kid from Ohio, but over the last few months, he’s become much, much more. The heir apparent of a galaxy-spanning kingdom, he’s survived assassination attacks, been evolved by the energies of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and been given powers far beyond the abilities of other humans.

Everything is looking up for fifteen-year-old Richard Plantagenet. After defeating his chief political rival, Senator Spartacus, Richard’s rulership of the Milky Way kingdom seems assured. He’s also more adept at using his powers, like teleportation, shielding himself from harm, and conjuring things out of thin air—though this latter ability is still mostly used to make cheeseburgers.
"A king’s bloodline is thought to have ended, however, amongst the planet hides one with the bloodline.
It was a normal day in Ohio for Richard. At 15 years of age, he was a normal gangly, shy boy with hopes of asking a girl out on a date, having fun with his friends, and keeping his grades up. Those were the days, now Richard is soaring on his sofa into outer space and meets his keeper, an artificial life form with a mission of finding the king’s bloodline and preparing him to take over.
The author, Michael W. Hickman, captures the awkwardness of a teenage boy and transforms him slowly and deliberately into king material. The storyline flows smoothly with plot twists that fit well. The plot twists are interesting and intriguing. The development of the characters is well done and deliberate. Hickman’s imagination is rich and intriguing.
The narrator, Ron Allan Fouts does a very good job of narration. He speaks clearly and with rich, expressive tones. His delivery is steady, and he speaks clearly. He does keep the story moving forward and keeps the interest growing as well.
I highly recommend this book if you are interested in fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure.

- Richard: Distant Son
AudioBook Reviewer
"The story of Richard Drumm continues as he survives multiple attempts on his life, discovers another life-changing event, and meets death head-on. Richard and Amber’s new powers must remain a secret if they are to survive until the coronation, but with Senator Spartacus behind most of the evil happenings, survival is questionable. With all the help Richard gets, one must wonder if it is all that helpful!
The author, Michael Hickman continues the story right where it left off. The story arc continues smoothly and flawlessly. The coming of age of Richard and Amber is entertaining and well-written. Hickman continues to develop the characters with deeper depth and growth. Hickman allows the listeners to experience a few moments of Richard’s anger and revenge mode, but those are quickly shut down with reason. Hickman is also sharing a powerful message with his listeners – everyone deserves a chance regardless.
The narrator, Ron Allan Fouts delivers another fine performance. His expressive tones and clear speaking allow for the listener to follow the story. He keeps the story moving forward at a steady pace.
Overall, this is a book that is rich in imagery and human nature and the plot twists are well done.
There were no issues with the production or quality of this audiobook."
- Richard: An Unlikely Love Story
Audiobook Reviewer
"Richard’s trials and tribulations continue to grow and become more intense as his impending crowing is due to occur. Richard faces death by the wings of dragons and the hands of enemies. AAL is tested by his boss, an ancient god who has his own motives for Richard’s success. A thrill a minute!
The author, Michael W. Hickman, once again provides a captivating tale that leaves the listener experiencing a wide range of emotions. The story progresses quickly and smoothly with action and moments of pain and happiness intermixed. Those who know about Richard and his new abilities are growing as is the support of his finally being crowned King. Hickman definitely knows how to keep the listener on the edge of their chair as he weaves a magical story of adventure, action, and deceit.
The narrator, Ron Allan Fouts once again delivers a strong and intriguing performance. He is consistent with each character from book to book maintaining the character’s integrity and strengthening it through his talented skills as a voice actor. He speaks clearly and with a steady cadence projecting the appropriate emotion and energy.
This is a fascinating series that grows stronger with each volume. A definite do not miss series!

- Richard: The Dragon's Curse
AudioBookReviewer
Richard is ushered into the Creator's world by AAL, the messenger sent to guide him. His great-grandfather has been murdered by his jealous brother, who is envious of the throne. To keep the throne of the Milky Way Galaxy from falling into the wrong hands, Richard has to journey to Krel, the home of the human race, to claim his throne after it has been left vacant for thousands of years. Richard falls in love with a species different from his; they make love, and the effects of making love to a fox have adverse consequences for him. Despite his young age, he acts maturely and takes on situations in the kingdom with a tremendous sense of obligation. His young life is threatened by his adversaries, and he barely escapes the first assassination by a hairsbreadth during one of the parties he attends. It is expected that he bears offspring that will take over the throne when he's gone, and getting intimate with Amber, who is a different species from the human race, might not answer that demand.
Readers will be enchanted while reading Richard: Distant Son by Michael W Hickman. The book is an intriguing tale that depicts the struggle for the throne between a naive boy and a powerful species. The book takes its readers through untold realms as we experience multiple astonishing occurrences and creatures. Richard, an Ohio boy, gets the opportunity to explore the Milky Way, and it is unknown to him that the galaxy will soon be under his ordinance and control. The book's use of several mythical creatures notifies its audience that Richard, a fifteen-year-old, will not only rule species of his kind but creatures from different realms.
Richard's ability to overcome his fears as quickly as they come is what I love about the book; he was able to catch up quickly with the idea that was presented of him being king before his plate. His approach toward the most feared creature, such as the centaur, was admirable; he was able to accommodate people of different kinds, and even though he found most of their routines and activities toward him despicable, he still tolerated them and was curious to learn their method of handling trends.
Richard was a fifteen-year-old boy who was subjected to various sexual acts that I did not think were appropriate for his age. It was acknowledged that he needed to bear progeny to retain the monarchy in his bloodline, but he was left to make unwise decisions for himself, such as mating with Amber, a fox who nearly cost him his sanity. AAL had already committed to nurturing him into the man he was destined to be, and when he reached the age of sixteen, he would take over as the Milky Way's new monarch. Although it was discovered that AAL had transitioned him beforehand into a fully grown man, that didn't alleviate the problem of a young adolescent left to wander in sexual pleasures.
The book is exceptionally well-edited. I discovered no errors in it. I award the book a perfect rating of five out of five stars because the author did a great job with the character development and bringing this book to life. I recommend this book to lovers of science fiction.
