Publisher's Summary

Winner 2018 SOVAS Award for Audiobook Narration - Teens, Best Voiceover

They are the fatemarked. Misunderstood. Worshipped. Hated. Murdered at birth. Their time to step into the light has come. 

An ancient prophecy foretold their coming, the chosen few who will bring peace to a land embroiled in a century of mistrust and war. When kings start dying, that hope and belief swiftly turns to fear. Roan Loren is one of the fatemarked, but has hidden his mark of power his entire life, fearing the damage it might cause to those around him. 

A great evil is coming. He can't hide anymore. 

In the spirit of fantasy epics like Throne of Glass and The Lord of the Rings, enter a world of magic and dragons, kings and queens, and victory and defeat, during a time when honor and valor still meant something.

Started out interesting but...

Where to start... Well ill keep this short and focus on the few main reasons why I am returning this book.

Firstly I want to say the Narrator does a fantastic jobs, that’s probably why I was able to make it through this book.

Overall this story just feels flat, linear and boring , I honestly could care less about any of the characters. I will say the author did a pretty good job at keeping things organized as he switches from character to character.

The story does get somewhat interesting but ends up becoming very predictable and resulted in me loosing intery.

The characters in this book are the worst. To name a few such as a self loathing northern princess with a big brooding escort... and don’t get me started on the homosexual relationship between the annoying life marked and stupid prince. I like a good relationship in a book but this one is so cliche.
Or how about the Princess who gives up her virtue only to become scorned and seek revenge only to still love the man she ended up hating and then screwing over.....And wait.....that man who gets screwed over pretends not to still like her only to end up thinking about her non stop....

Final verdict..... this author and series are not for me, I generally don’t gets refunds but this book is a special case. Try this book or not, you can always get a refund

Not for me

I could see how some would enjoy, but I did not. Simply didn't get into it.

Terrific series from longtime fantasy reader/listener

I can’t believe I just found this series. The only books I have read and listened to for decades is fantasy. It’s really rare to find great book series with nice long lengths with great narrators. This series had it all. Also was an original story not a rehashed story (although I don’t mind a good rehashed story).

Meh.

Narration was excellent but sadly the book didn't really catch my interest. Going to keep it but not sure I would recommend it. Even the publishers summary is kind of lame.
