About this listen
War takes everything.
From Tinnstra, it took her family and thrust her into a conflict she wanted only to avoid. Now her queen's sole protector, she must give all she has left to keep Zorique safe.
It has taken just as much from Jia's revolutionaries. Dren and Jax - battered, tortured, once enemies themselves - must hold strong against their bruised invaders, the Egril.
For the Egril intend to wipe Jia from the map. They may have lost a battle, but they are coming back.
If Tinnstra and her allies hope to survive, Jia's heroes will need to be ready when they do.
With more bone-crunching action, tough choices and impossible odds, fans of Joe Abercrombie, Mark Lawrence and Ed McDonald will find something to love in this series.

THE LAST WAR
Book One: We Are the Dead
Book Two: A Fool's Hope
Book Three: Until the Last©2020 Mike Shackle (P)2020 Orion Publishing Group
The first novel gave extra depth to the characters by walking through their self doubts. However, this did get a tad old in the 2nd and a bit too young adult which maybe the target audience that I wasn’t aware of until getting into it.
The narrator was great and provided a good range of voices and projected the feelings of protagonists well albeit the story like I said was a bit teenage at times.
There is lots of violence and it’s dark at times. Which I think young ppl can handle but it was pretty full on with a genocide being carried out so I hope that’s a fair warning. That said the story is ultimately about sacrifice to save others and what lengths ppl will go to do so.
Great story but a bit carebear at times
