À propos de cet audio

Now includes special bonus content. Stay tuned after the audiobook to hear “The Last Abbot of Ashk’lan,” a short story by Brian Staveley.

The emperor of Annur is dead, slain by enemies unknown. His daughter and two sons, scattered across the world, do what they must to stay alive and unmask the assassins. But each of them also has a life-path on which their father set them, destinies entangled with both ancient enemies and inscrutable gods.

Kaden, the heir to the Unhewn Throne, has spent eight years sequestered in a remote mountain monastery, learning the enigmatic discipline of monks devoted to the Blank God. Their rituals hold the key to an ancient power he must master before it's too late.

An ocean away, Valyn endures the brutal training of the Kettral, elite soldiers who fly into battle on gigantic black hawks. But before he can set out to save Kaden, Valyn must survive one horrific final test.

At the heart of the empire, Minister Adare, elevated to her station by one of the emperor's final acts, is determined to prove herself to her people. But Adare also believes she knows who murdered her father, and she will stop at nothing - and risk everything - to see that justice is meted out.

didn't expect much from this considering it was free, and free titles usually aren't great but I loved it all. I loved the characters, loved the story and I enjoyed the performance as well though I did feel that he used the wrong voice for different characters by mistake a few times which threw me off and made me rewind to confirm that another character hadn't jumped in. all in all very excited to move onto book 2.

loved it. absolutely loved.

I now look for books read by Simon. He's the best and always makes the stories come alive.

The reader is excellent- varied voices, correct emotional tones.
Characters strong and well differentiated, placed in credible perils in different parts of a tangible world.
I’ve already downloaded the next one!

Quality storytelling and narration

The narration is terrific and the story so well written that it is like watching a movie. I cannot wait to have time to listen to further installments of this tale. The three siblings relationships to each other and the means by which their paths intersect is a bit forced but otherwise an engaging adventure.

Amazing Narrator Brings the Story Alive

Took a break from the Stormlight series by Sanderson to listen to this, and I'm glad I did. the length of the book was perfect and halfway through, the author locks you in. can't wait to read the next title from this series.

Great all around Book

Excellent Villans

Narrator didn't do this story justice. Accents were lacking in authenticity. A good story though with engaging characters.

Narrator has no range
