About this listen
Everyone has their secrets.
In Berinin, a new Chieftain Heir is born, but only his grandfather and a child from ArcNos know the truth of his birth. In Ferya, a denial of paternity fractures a family. In Ivaria, the plight of an orphan motivates his adoptive father to seek a child of his own blood.
These four children - MeiLom of ArcNos, Galo of Berinin, Eytea of Ferya, and Vielle of Ivaria - are part of a long-forgotten line of hominids called Hybrids.
Soon after, an ArcNosian soldier walks into the clutches and care of a shadow group with technology paling all of Ouristihra. Thus begins his rise to power, flanked by The Avatars of Fate as they preach the doctrine of The Epimetheus Trial.
With their hands firmly in the Northland powerhouse, The Avatars' focus is twofold. Topple the rest of the continent. And eradicate the Hybrids.
Derelicts, rebels, and refugees come together to overthrow the new power structure and drive out The Avatars. Nobody knows where they came from or what they're ultimately after. But one thing is certain.
"We need to operate under the assumption that nobody is coming to our rescue."

It’s a big story, well fleshed out and it has a lot of twists and turns - enough to keep it feeling grounded without being silly. It’s my first venture into fantasy in audiobook form and I genuinely loved every second of the story. It’s well written, the dialogue never feels out of place and it brought me back to my childhood of playing Final Fantasy games - it gave me those same feelings.
The narration was fantastic with each character being given their own voice and personality through the acting. A great voice for narration too. I loved this one, both for the writing and the narration.
I can’t wait to see the next in the series and I hope to hear Cole back for the narration of it!
