About this listen
Violence and death come to the land under the Northern Sky when two fierce races break their age-old fragile peace and start an all-out war in this thrilling and savagely visceral epic fantasy.
Ready or not, Roper has been thrust into a position of leadership that he's woefully ill prepared for. Now, a massive army approaches from the south, old allies turn against him, and new rivals seek to undermine his rule. Facing attack from within and without, Roper must forge reckless alliances, no matter the cost, to save his kingdom.
Bellamus is a brash but capable southern general, a commoner with the rare honor of having the discreet support of the queen. Rising quickly from the minor ranks he was born into, Bellamus leads the march on the North. Victory means glory, power, and the favor of the king, but defeat promises much worse than disgrace.
A tale of war, rivalry, and honor, The Wolf creates a world that is both familiar and uncanny - one where the fiercest enemies are always closer than they seem.

Story
The small island of Malaz and its city gave the great empire its name, but now it is little more than a sleepy, backwater port. Tonight, however, things are different. Tonight the city is on edge, a hive of hurried, sometimes violent activity; its citizens bustle about, barring doors, shuttering windows, avoiding any stranger's stare. Because tonight there is to be a convergence, the once-in-a-generation appearance of a Shadow Moon - an occasion that threatens the good people of Malaz with demon hounds and other, darker things....

Story
The galaxy remembers Hadrian Marlowe as a hero: the man who burned every last alien Cielcin from the sky. They remember him as a monster: the devil who destroyed a sun, casually annihilating four billion human lives - even the emperor himself - against Imperial orders. But Hadrian was not a hero. He was not a monster. He was not even a soldier. Fleeing his father and a future as a torturer, Hadrian finds himself stranded on a strange, backwater world.

Story
The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, Shadrapar, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls. Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a museum, a midden, an asylum, a prison on a world that is ever more alien to humanity. Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is Stefan Advani: rebel, outlaw, prisoner, survivor.

"An action-packed and blood-splattered tour de force.... Carew is the real deal - an exciting new voice in fantasy." (Kirkus)
"Carew's worldbuilding skills are strong and his ability to infuse even the grittiest battle scene with emotion and drive is impressive." (RT Book Reviews)

Medical political fantasy thriller!
I’d recommend this to someone who like Nordic lore . Nordic lore is played through in and throughout. Nice combat depictions I loved it

Great way to "read" a story!
Truly enjoyed this book, and was nice to be able to listen at night without lights and just relax and immerse myself in the story.

Excellent Narration of a Decent Story
For anyone that likens this series to Game of Thrones, I'd say sure, but without the depth of characters (and the magic/dragons) that make Game of Thrones excellent. These characters were flat from the start, and the author did little to develop them in any meaningful way. I found it hard to really care about the outcomes of events when I wasn't invested in the characters.
Having said that, the narration goes a long way toward salvaging a mediocre story. The narrator kept me engaged in an otherwise ho-hum audiobook. Now if they could get this guy to narrate Game of Thrones...
