Summary

"Slay these kings and incite the wars. Only then will the shard be yours."

With all of Naeisus locked in a furious battle over the crystals, King Areth wonders if his shard could be the one foretold to end the wars. Meanwhile, a threat stirs beneath the ground; something from myth, bigger, and altogether more terrifying than any of the denizens of Naeisus would believe.

Highly enjoyable listen

So, I greatly enjoyed this book.

The pacing feels a little forced to begin with but once the author has set his groundwork the book takes on a life of its own. The characters are well fleshed out and at no point do you feel like the actions being taken are not ones that would have been natural.

The world itself has many interesting facets that I hope will be developed further as this series builds.

The author has clearly thought out where he will be going overall as his use of foreshadowing is wonderful. You feel almost as if you are being led in one direction and you can guess what will happen when suddenly you are blindsided by what he was actually building. The twists that grew from this story were marvelous and I'm honestly looking forward to reading the next book and will be on the look out for any additional work.

entertaining story

Story was interesting. Narrator was a little dull making the story lose a little spark.
