Summary

Ullsaard has conquered the known world. All have fallen before his armies. Now it's time to take the long journey home, back to the revered heart of the great Empire he had helped create for his distant masters. But when he returns to the capital, life there is so very different from what he had believed. Could it be that everything he has fought for, has conquered and killed for, has been a lie?

Gav Thorpe works from Nottingham, England and has written more than a dozen novels and even more short stories. Growing up in a tedious town just north of London, he originally intended to be an illustrator but after acknowledging an inability to draw or paint he turned his hand to writing.

Meh

Would you try another book written by Gav Thorpe or narrated by Paul Thornley?

Sorry, not at present

What will your next listen be?

I'm going to go for something with perhaps a little more developed story. I really wanted to like this: I enjoy the genre and I've listened to some Paul Thornley, but the combination didn't gel

Would you listen to another book narrated by Paul Thornley?

It would be genre dependent

Do you think The Crown of the Blood needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

May be but i just am not that bothered what happens to Ulsard
