About this listen

The second terrifying tale in the Spook's spin-off series from best-selling author Joseph Delaney.

Thomas Ward was working as the new County Spook, fighting the Dark with his own apprentice. But a new enemy stirred in the north, and Tom's calling required him to leave his home and lead an uprising against a legion of beasts: creatures of the Dark intent on locking the whole Earth in a never-ending winter.

Then something went horribly wrong, and now Tom lies cold in a grave while those who remain are in despair.

Who can now take up the battle? And how much time remains before the Dark army brings the fight back to the county, and the world is changed for ever?

I love the Spooks series of books absolutely getting sucked in so can't wait to read or listen to the next. If u haven't read any of his books I'd recommend them to just about anyone.

I was sceptical about the Tom ward books continuing but these books are really imaginative and well written. The narration is excellent.

I Love these books, so imaginative.

The style of writing is from the perspective of a master and apprentice. Although purely verbal monologues can be daunting, the author had included explanations, recaps and lores to keep it easy to follow and interesting. I am impressed that there is a glossary of terms that isn’t plain definitions but also as if they were notes from the protagonists. This helped reinforce the lore and ideas mentioned in the book. That was a nice touch.

Easy listen and with substance
