Summary

The first book in the series by the master of epic fantasy, Raymond E. Feist. Ten years after the cataclysmic events of Wrath of A Mad God took place, Midkenia now faces a new danger thought buried in myth and antiquity.

A lost race of elves, the taredhel or ‘people of the stars’, have found a way across the universe to reach Midkemia. On their current home world, these elves are hard pressed by a ravaging demon horde, and what was once a huge empire has been reduced to a handful of survivors. The cornerstone of taredhel lore is the tale of their lost origins in the world they call simply ‘Home’, a place lost in the mists of time. Now they are convinced that Midkemia is that place, and they are coming to reclaim it.

Ruthless and arrogant, the taredhel intend to let nothing stand in their way; but before long, Pug and the Conclave realise that it's not necessarily the elves, but the demon horde pursuing them where the true danger lies. And hanging over Pug always is the prophecy that he will be doomed to watch everyone he loves die before him…

I love letter Joyce and only listen to his narration of these books. This was a bit confusing to follow as the speed felt strange and the voices where not the ones I am used to.

The voices are not Peter’s usual accents

I have enjoyed Peter Joyce’s narration throughout all of the Midkemia books and his characterisation has been consistent.. Why, oh why, has he suddenly changed the voices of some of characters we have all got to know and love? It’s bizarre!

Same characters, different voices?

Fantastic story great narration by Peter Joyce. so I find myself asking who's unbelievably stupid idea wàs it to replace him???? That inspired american accent has not the presence of Peter Joyce and immediately annoys. you have ruined the following books to this one. suggest the idea owner and the new narrator...

A great book

Loved the story but if, like me, you are listening to each book back to back here is where you notice the greatest change in the characters accents and the pronunciation of names and places. Just felt like the narration got a bit lazy

An annoying change
