About this listen

There is a dark full moon on midwinter's day. The foretelling has come to pass. Rulke the Charon is unstoppable now. Karan is held captive in desolate Carcharon tower. Rulke plans to use her to find the Way between the Worlds. On the mountainside below, the allies await their fate. Karan's lover, Llian, is in chains, falsely accused of betraying her to the enemy. As the dark moon rises, Rulke begins to open the Way. If he succeeds, the world will be overwhelmed by the dread armies of the void. There is only one solution. Karan must be the sacrifice...

Critic reviews

"Ian Irvine is a great find! ...Complicated, and compelling." (Kate Elliott, author of King's Dragon)
"Irvine has built a history and wonderful culture for his vivid world." (The West Australian)
"Compelling...this stands out as a worldbuilding labour of love with some truly original touches." (Locus)
"Award-winning actor and narrator Grant Cartwright's semi-voiced reading captures the emotional edge of the hatreds and fears that motivate each character. He has a wide range of accents and voices which he uses effectively to convey the nuances of this complex tale." (SoundCommentary)
