Publisher's Summary

Free from the clutches of the kingdom, yet slaves to fate.

Ryl, the phrenics, and their meager army make for the security of the Erlyn Woods. As the cost of freedom continues to mount, their hold remains tenuous at best. New additions to their army present unexpected complications and danger. Choices that will define the future of Damaris hang in the balance.

The army from Cadsae Proper marches in their wake. Control, coveted for ages will not be ceded willingly. Or without a fight. Outnumbered by thousands, Ryl is forced to choose between defending the tributes or reclaiming a friend, stolen from their midst.

Will his quest end in rescue or revenge?

Whispers of darkness taint the light of change. For better or worse, the kingdom is changing by the moment.

So, too, is Ryl.

Don’t know why they change VO

Overall the story comes off as a completely different book. I don’t know if it’s the pacing but the characters seem to talk themselves in circles

way too repetitive

I really wanted to like this book. I tried. The first issue I have is when you change a narrator. The first narrator for the first three books was decent. not my most favorite, but in the top 10. I am not fond of this narrator at all. I find he doesn't really bring any life to the characters. The storyline was just plain old boring. I wasn't huge on the third book but it was okay. I was hoping it would pick up in this one. it has not. this book probably could have been half the size. there was so much that was just repeated over and over and over again. you don't have to explain everything constantly throughout this book. I almost stopped listening to this book when ryl explained the Alexin in his veins for the 100th time by chapter 15. on the side note author, if you read these I will 100% beta read for you man. there is potential.
