À propos de cet audio

Come back to the Named Lands in this compelling sequel to Ken Scholes amazing novel Lamentation.

It is nine months after the end of the previous book. Many noble allies have come to the Ninefold Forest for a Feast in honor of General Rudolfo's first-born child. Jin Li Tam, his wife and mother of his heir, lies in childbed.

As the feast begins, the doors of the hall fly open and invisible assassins begin attacking. All of Rudolfo's noble guests are slain, including Hanric, the Marsh Queen's Shadow. And on the Keeper's Gate, which guards the Named Lands from the Churning Waste, a strange figure appears, with a message for Petronus, the Hidden Pope.

Thus begins the second movement of The Psalms of Isaak, Canticle.

Blurb Review: A solid second entry that takes the series in bold new directions as revelations unfurl throughout. I enjoyed this work and look forward to continuing the series.

Worldbuilding: 7/10
The mystique of this world is deepened in this book while still leaving many mysteries unanswered for future novels.

Characters: 6.5/10
Solid work here. Nothing to complain about but nothing spectacular either.

Plot: 7/10
A bit slow at first but builds well towards an impactful finale.

Overall Investment/Emotional Impact: 6/10
Draws the reader in but only grips as much as its characters.

Writing/Prose: 5.5/10
Scholes tends to overexplain and overwrite in my opinion. It's fine but occasionally takes me out of the story.

Vocal Performance: 8/10
The performances were very, very good across the board save one - the voice actor who performed Neb's chapters gave his voice a whiny quality that drove me a bit nuts and was terrible in his female voices. All the others were great.

Rating: 3.75 stars

Content Warning: Some light sensuality and violence.

A Solid Sequel
