À propos de cet audio

The powerful city-state of Saraykeht is a bastion of peace and culture, a major center of commerce and trade. Its economy depends on the power of the captive spirit Seedless, an andat bound to the poet-sorcerer Heshai for life. Enter the Galts, an empire committed to laying waste to all lands with their ferocious army. Saraykeht has always been too strong for the Galts to attack, but now they see an opportunity.

If they can dispose of Heshai, Seedless will perish and the entire city will fall. In the middle is Otah, a simple laborer with a complex past. Recruited to act as a bodyguard for his girlfriend's boss at a secret meeting, he inadvertently learns of the Galtish plot. Otah finds himself as the sole hope of Saraykeht: either he stops the Galts or the whole city and everyone in it perishes forever.

Ce que les critiques en disent

" A Shadow in Summer is a thoroughly engrossing debut novel from a major new fantasist. A poignant human tale of power, heartbreak, and betrayal." (George R.R. Martin)

It's hard to understand what the narrator is saying. Plus, all the voices have the typical old grandmasters tone to them which is really annoying...

I came into this novel off the strength of Abraham's short stories and his first collaboration with Ty Franck (Leviathan Wakes), and was intrigued. The end has a few story-telling mis-steps, but overall the novel is a great first time out. Looking forward to the further installments.
