About this listen

The future holds nothing but blood and death . . .

. . . and Teia fears there is nothing she can do about it. Her clan is riding to war, but her secret, untrained gift of foretelling has shown her they are riding to their doom. If she cannot turn them from their course, her only hope of saving them will be to betray them to their sworn enemies.

Gair is mourning his past . . .

. . . but there is no time to dwell on his grief or hunger for revenge. Pursuing an artefact from the Founding Wars, he travels deep into the hostile southern deserts. As religious tensions erupt into bloody violence around him, he must make an impossible choice: save innocent lives or sacrifice them in the hope that thousands more can be saved later.

And all the while, his grip on his powers is failing.

Book two of a four(or more?) book series. Really enjoyed the first & I was keen to see where the characters ended up after the cliffhanger at the end of the first. Frustratingly almost the first third of this book dealt entirely with a new character - I had to check several times whether I was reading the same series. Eventually the threads rejoined & I enjoyed the rest of the book & was eager for the third.

Good but frustrating

Great read, continues to build the story, and a few more characters introduced, could of done with abit more about who Gair is, and just more Gair. READ IT.

Great*****

The first book in this series was nothing short of amazing. This second book just seems to wander... Too many characters introduced late into the series. I'm bought into the storyline so I will carry on with book 3, I just hope it is more focussed

Good, but

I like the way Elspeth Cooper writes, how the world and the characters are described. Narrators voice was nice and I was amazed how fast my days at work went when I was listening to this. I am happy that I can listen to these books in english because these are not available in Finland.

Loved it

That says it all - good but not a patch on book 1. Plus 2 real negatives. First, the hero seems to have changed from an extremely likeable young man into a sulky petulant Pain in the neck. I don’t think it’s necessarily the best idea to keep the main character and give them a bit of a personality transplant. Secondly, the first book was well in the young adult category, but the graphic and violent sex in places in this second book was really gratuitous and unnecessary and would certainly take younger listeners by surprise

Great but weaker than book 1
