Summary
A century since the departure of the Gods, the Three Nations are now united beneath the Tsar. Magic has been outlawed, its power too dangerous to remain unchecked. All Magickers must surrender themselves to the crown or face imprisonment and death.
Alana's mundane life has just been torn apart by the emergence of her brother's magic. Now they must leave behind everything they've ever known and flee - before the Tsar's Stalkers pick up their trail. Tasked with hunting down renegade Magickers, the merciless hunters will stop at nothing to bring them before the Tsar's judgment.
As the noose closes around Alana and her brother, disgraced hero Devon finds himself at odds with the law when he picks a fight with the wrong man. The former warrior has set aside his weapons, but now, caught between the renegades and the Stalkers, he is forced to pick a side - the empire, or the innocent.

Thrilling fantasy with unexpected twists and turns
Oathbreaker (Legend of the Gods Trilogy Book 1) was my introduction to books written by Aaron Hodges and I found it enthralling from the start. The summary of the story drew me to it in the first place and it didn’t disappoint. Action, suspense, treachery, wry humour from some of the characters, magic, dragons, a small amount of romance; this book has all the elements I enjoy. Aaron Hodges has produced a great plot with some unexpected twists and turns, well drawn characters and highly descriptive imagery. A thoroughly enjoyable tale that I didn’t want to end. A good set-up for the second instalment of this trilogy (Shield of Winter).
Combined with Aaron Hodges superb writing, David Stifel’s first-rate narration really brings the book to life. I usually prefer Scottish and Irish accents for this genre of book, but David Stifel’s voice is pleasant to listen to and his repertoire of voices for the different characters does enable the listener to distinguish them from each other where dialogue takes place. One big advantage with Audible is that you can alter the speed of narration (ie: faster or slower) to suit your own particular preference. I found that upping the speed to 1.25 worked best for me, but others are likely to prefer the original speed or somewhere in-between. Irrespective, it is a great listen and leaves you wanting more.
