À propos de cet audio
She is the last hope of good in the war against the evil sorceress known as the Lady. From a secret base on the Plains of Fear, where even the Lady hesitates to go, the Black Company, once in service to the Lady, now fights to bring victory to the White Rose. But now an even greater evil threatens the world. All the great battles that have gone before will seem a skirmishes when the Dominator rises from the grave.

Young Lerris is dissatisfied with his life and trade, and yearns to find a place in the world better suited to his skills and temperament. But in Recluce a change in circumstances means taking one of two options: permanent exile from Recluce or braving the dangergeld, a complex, rule-laden wanderjahr in the lands beyond Recluce, with the aim of learning how the world works and what his place in it might be. Many do not survive. Lerris chooses the dangergeld.

Histoire198
In 2204, humanity is expanding into the wider galaxy in leaps and bounds. Cutting-edge technology of linked jump gates has rendered most forms of transportation - including starships - virtually obsolete. Every place on Earth, every distant planet humankind has settled, is now a step away from any other. And all seems wonderful - until a crashed alien spaceship of unknown origin is found on a newly located world 89 light-years from Earth, carrying a cargo as strange as it is horrifying. To assess the potential of the threat a high-powered team is dispatched to investigate. But one of them may not be all they seem....

In a world scarred by an apocalyptic past, evoking a time both 2,000 years past and 2,000 years into the future, untold thousands gather for a crusade. Among them, two men and two women are ensnared by a mysterious traveler, Anasûrimbor Kellhus - part warrior, part philosopher, part sorcerous, charismatic presence - from lands long thought dead. The Darkness That Comes Before is a history of this great holy war, and like all histories, the survivors write its conclusion.

The Red Queen is old but the kings of the Broken Empire dread her like no other. For all her reign, she has fought the long war, contested in secret, against the powers that stand behind nations, for higher stakes than land or gold. Her greatest weapon is The Silent Sister - unseen by most and unspoken of by all. The Red Queen's grandson, Prince Jalan Kendeth - drinker, gambler, seducer of women - is one who can see The Silent Sister.

great High dark fantasy book
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
This consummate novel in the 'Books of the North' sub-series is satisfying (completing that storyline neatly) and is loaded with well-contrived military action, but it doesn't have the same thematic impact that made the first novels so intriguing. The plot is twisty and full of surprises, the characters are complex and interesting, and the setting is fantastical and appealing, but Cook's prose is unspectacular (sophomoric at times), his dialogue is fair at best (too often surly and sarcastic), and his lack of description is frustrating (he introduces new species - e.g. Menhirs - without really saying what they look like). When you factor in abandoning the most interesting aspect of his vision to the formula, it becomes disappointing.
Marc Vietor turns in an above-average narration effort in 'The White Rose'.. but although it's great, it's not particularly notable.
Overall, this is a nice midpoint "conclusion" relating the early fate of the remnants of an engaging group of mercenaries, but the campaign is losing some lustre. This book rates 6 stars out of 10. You are certainly justified in continuing with the series - I am stopping here.
Entertaining, but Suffers From Alignment Shift
