About this listen

 Critically acclaimed author R. Scott Bakker has received widespread praise for his colorful characters and action-packed plotting. In this sequel to The Judging Eye, Anasûrimbor Kellhus, the first true aspect-emperor in a thousand years, continues his trek into the Ancient North. Meanwhile, the exiled wizard Achamian leads a mission to the legendary Sauglish ruins. Tensions mount when the White-Luck Warrior, assassin and messiah both, arrives, bringing violence in his wake.©2011 R. Scott Bakker (P)2012 Recorded Books Epic Epic Fantasy Fantasy Historical Fiction

So much happens in this second book! Lots of reveals, twists and turns, and epic battles. The slower section from the previous book with Esme was groundwork for a much more interesting story, which was the only so-so parts of the previous novel.

I find the narrator fairly inconsistent. Sometimes great, other times lapsing into this weird dramatic voice. Maybe he thinks he’s making slower sections more interesting or something but it’s annoying.

Epic!

strongest novel I have read by Bakker. builds from Judging Eye masterfully. Thrilling adventure for all 25 hours. Reader sounds like he's swallowing sometimes and changes pronunciation of some names sometimes but otherwise very good. I enjoy his far away yelling voice.

Best of the series
