Publisher's Summary

In this “gritty, heart-pounding” (John Gwynne) conclusion to the New York Times bestselling fantasy trilogy, The Covenant of Steel, Alwyn must make a difficult decide between his heart and his morals as he prepares for his final battle.

It’s been a long journey for Alwyn Scribe. Born a bastard and raised an outlaw, he’s now a knight and the most trusted advisor to Lady Evadine Courlain. Together they’ve won countless battles and helped to bring order to a fractured kingdom. Yet Evadine is not the woman Alwyn once knew. As puritanical fury increasingly replaces her benevolent faith, Alwyn begins to question what her true motives really are. As the kingdom braces itself for one final battle, Alwyn’s conscience fights its own war with his heart. Now, more than ever, he must decide whose side he’s really on.

"This makes a rich treat for George R. R. Martin fans." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The Pariah

Sound editing needs some work

Story is excellent; narration is good (as always); editing of the sound track misses the mark, with some narration repeated or missing in parts. Errors are not enough to really interfere with the book, but should be addressed in future.

Satisfying but predictable

The sound editing is terrible. Sentences cut off and volume up and down. The story is good and performance was excellent.

Well done

My only complaint:

I wish this story was a longer listen.

Great for what it was.

Unfortunate editing

I greatly enjoyed the story and performances, unfortunately the quality of the editing was the worst I’ve encountered over dozens of titles on audible. Several times the audio cut out for a few seconds or was spliced awkwardly.

Really noticeable issues.
