About this listen

As magic’s influence spreads across the five kingdoms, the White Tower’s reach extends with it.

No place is left untouched.

In his quest for vengeance against the witch Mangora, Ty stumbles across a curious book he believes might help. But its pages hold a dark secret that threatens to unravel everything his family and friends have been fighting for. The more he reads, the more addicted he becomes to the knowledge it offers....

With no memory of who he is or where he came from, Ayrion finds himself traveling with a pair Rhivanni tinkers as they head east toward Sidara. Then a plea for help from a young rover boy leads them into the middle of a horrific bloodbath against an enemy no one has seen in over a thousand years. If they aren’t stopped, these creatures will spread across Aldor, leaving nothing but destruction in their wake....

As the first prisoner to escape the clutches of the White Tower, Ferrin’s only concern is reaching his sister, Myriah, before the Black Watch catches him. Joined by Rae, her daughter, Suri, and a former captain in the Black Watch, the small band makes their way north, hoping to keep ahead of the white riders. Little do they know who has been sent to track them down....

Meanwhile, Kira and the Warren underground continue their search for Reevie as they attempt to discover the reason behind the strange disappearances in Aramoor. However, the answers they seek are more disturbing than anything they could have imagined....

another hit

Excellent story, lots of characters, just the ending needs another book I think.
i hope the author realises this and concludes the story to tie up the loose ends

Gripping, exciting and well narrated

I will always say this but Tim Gerard Reynolds is one of my all time favourite narrators and I will listen to anything he narrates.

The book is gripping, exciting and I can’t wait for the next one!

Dragged out storyline

Storyline repeated over and over didn’t feel there was any substance to it will persevere with the last book to see what happens

Middling fantasy read with some good points

While the author seems to have a good idea for a story the overall book leaves something to be desired. Not a bad story to fill some time if bored but certainly not one of those books you can't put down.

While the author does manage to keep the main separate storylines going simultaneously giving each one a fair amount of coverage, all three of the main ones seem to end up in perilously situations at the same time resulting in sacrificing character development for action.

The frequent use of the secondary characters appearing certainly dead one second and alive again the next by miraculous circumstances becomes so overused that you begin to role your eyes every time a character apparently dies.

The overuse of magic to solve every problem is another flaw of the book, the author unfortunately doesn't seem to have a solid grasp of the magic system it's limits and uses. With on multiple occasions the characters being described at the end of the strength then suddenly able to use magic again seconds later.

However despite all this the overall idea behind the story is good and I will likely read/listen to the next novel in hopes that the author matures in his writing.
