About this listen

The second book in the Darkwar series, from world-wide bestselling author of Magician, Raymond E. Feist.

Chaos threatens to overwhelm two worlds as the most dangerous force ever encountered threatens to invade Midkemia, while the most treacherous magician in history – the madman Leso Varen – begins to wreak havoc on the world of Kelewan.

Pug and the Conclave of Shadows are determined to find Varen, only to discover that he has usurped the body of one of the most powerful men in the Empire of Tsuranuani – a Black Robe and member of the Assembly of Magicians. Pug has the almost impossible task of uncovering the true identity of the fiendish magician in an entire city full of Black Robes.

Murder, mayhem, horror, and the darkest evil await Pug's son, Magnus, and his companions as they attempt to discover the ultimate source of the terrible threat that hovers over Midkemia and Kelewan. Leading a desperate expedition into the realm of the Dasati, the vast and malevolent empire which is threatening his homeworld, Magnus hopes to find the key to defeating this enemy who is capable of overwhelming the combined might of two worlds. But even if he does, the companions will have a desperate struggle to return home with their vital information.

Three worlds will teeter on the brink of destruction as the third Riftwar: the Darkwar, is unleashed.

Much better than the first darkwar book. I still don't know why we have to follow the three boys. Their efforts seem detached and inconsequential in the big scheme of things.
But this book is good anyway.

Like Flight of The Nighthawks, this kept me hooked and wanting to continually listen at every possible opportunity. A good follow on and the core story is really picking up pace. I cannot wait to get into the next one.

Compelling

Wow what a change of pace this book has been compared to the rest of the saga. By now I had got very used to the usual fantasy tropes in this saga, and while I loved all the ongoing characters I must say the stories were getting dull. This book really turned that around and I found myself riveted!

Feist created a culture absolutely alien, and yet very believable. I didn't have to suspend disbelief when reading about the characters in this culture - it all made sense.

Well done and can't wait to start the next!

Fantasticly original

Highly recommended. Feist is a master storyteller, and it's very well read by Peter Joyce. Setting the series up for a rivetting finish.
