About this listen
From the critically-acclaimed author of PRINCE OF FOOLS comes the second volume of the brilliant new epic fantasy series, THE RED QUEEN’S WAR.
'If you like dark you will love Mark Lawrence. And when the light breaks through and it all makes sense, the contrast is gorgeous' ROBIN HOBB
The Red Queen has set her players on the board…
Winter is keeping Prince Jalan Kendeth far from the longed-for luxuries of his southern palace. And although the North may be home to his companion, the warrior Snorri ver Snagason, he is just as eager to leave.
For the Viking is ready to challenge all of Hel to bring his wife and children back into the living world. He has Loki’s key – now all he needs is to find the door.
As all wait for the ice to unlock its jaws, the Dead King plots to claim what was so nearly his – the key into the world – so that the dead can rise and rule.

‘Marks an unbroken and steady ascent to the top of my favourite-fantasy pile. Lawrence gets better with each book he writes’ MYKE COLE
‘Reminds me of when I first discovered Gemmell and Hobb and I can't wait for the next instalment’ DAVID CHADWICK
‘The brisk adventure and black magic will leave readers eager for the next chapter in the series’ Publisher’s Weekly
‘Lawrence improves with every book he writes and if he keeps on like this, we may have to turn the ratings system up to eleven. Magnificent, and highly recommended’ Starburst Magazine
‘Mark Lawrence should be commended on another excellent book of The Red Queen’s War trilogy that gives enough information to make the reader want more’ Impulse Gamer
‘The dialogue is a humorous, frightening lullaby that flawlessly depicts this dark, disturbing universe and its meticulously constructed characters, both friends and fiends’ RT Book Reviews
Another totally engrossing story

Would you listen to The Liar's Key again? Why?
Yes; well told with an appropriate narrator (honestly, the narrator's voice and accent can completely make or break a listening experience depending on whether or not it fits the story/characters!), and an excellent story, carrying on from the first book. I'll probably listen again before the 3rd one comes out!What was one of the most memorable moments of The Liar's Key?
When Jarl discovers that his power is unstable yet terrifyingly powerful.Which scene did you most enjoy?
The same as above.If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Only one man can save his kingdom; whether he wants to or not...Any additional comments?
Excellent follow on from the first, and I love how it subtly weaves in and around the Prince of Thorns trilogy. Jarl is a wonderful antihero; a little less shocking than Jorg and a little more likeable. And a whole lot less capable!Fantastic series so far

This book maintains the quality of writing and narration that made the first book awesome :) Prince Jalan has to be one of my favorite fictional characters as the situations he ends up in never fail to entertain!If you were a fan of Prince of Fools then you need to get your hands on this!!This book was great!

There is more world building too which is very welcome as I find the World this series is set in quite wonderful. Lastly the narrator is excellent, bringing more accents and life to the characters which really increases the enjoyment while listening.
Great
