À propos de cet audio

A journey into the realm of spiritual imagination

Set in the third epoch of the planet Ikleel, the arrival of a comet signifies the approach of the Final Standing, an apocalyptic end time when an ancient enemy of humanity, Mörtan, is set to return.

Zorar and his apprentice Alifa, both Grand Conduits of Nur, urgently prepare for the coming time along with other Nurani Conduits.

Meanwhile, Arön, their home, has fallen under the control of the Syndicate, a sinister organisation seeking to plunder centuries of imperial wealth.

Cataclysymic events, a fracturing of society, a loss of what was sacred, will all beg the question—what does it mean to be human in a time of relentless techno-scientific change?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I really liked this book, especially the magic system and the way it builds an Islamic-inspired world. The historical nods were great too. The Assassins are a direct callback to the real group, complete with their own Shaykh al-Jabal, and the Syndicate basically functions like the East India Company in the subcontinent. All of that made the setting feel grounded and fresh at the same time.

What didn’t work for me was the main character. She reminded me a lot of Rey from Star Wars: almost no flaws, good at everything right away, and we barely see her struggle. Everyone around her constantly goes on about how amazing and beautiful she is, which felt odd considering the rest of the world leans so heavily on Islamic themes. The lack of gender decorum especially stood out. On top of that, we do not get any meaningful backstory, so it is hard to feel attached to her as a character.

I am also not sure how I feel about the idea of Heralds, which are the book’s equivalent to real-life Prophets. That part made me personally uncomfortable, although they do not show up much in the first book.

Overall, the worldbuilding hooked me, but the main character and some of the thematic choices held it back for me.

Good first book in what is looking like to be a successful franchise
