About this listen

The penultimate volume in The Conclave of Shadows from worldwide bestselling author Raymond E Feist. Featuring one of the most fascinating characters and scenarios ever created in the genre. The series promises to become one of the great all-time classics in the field.

Once absolute ruler of his nation, Kaspar, former Duke of Olasko, has been cast into exile. Abandoned in the wilds of a continent on the other side of the world and left with nothing but his wits and determination, he must fight merely to survive. Armed with guile, cunning and an iron will, he starts his odyssey with a single goal: to return to his home and revenge himself upon the man who cast him down, Talwin Hawkins.

But fate has other plans for Kaspar, and as he struggles against adversity, he encounters dangers greater than any he had imagined. More is at stake than he realised and Kaspar is but a single player in a far greater game than he imagined, for pitted against the Conclave of Shadows are the agents of the Dark Empire, a looming menace that threatens not only Kaspar's homeland, but the entire world of Midkemia.

As always great story. I just wish that Peter Joyce had taken the time to research the characters and pronounce the names of people and places properly.

Wonderful

The storyline is interesting and intriguing with some twists and turns amidst magic, action and fantastical worlds brimming with imagination and strange creatures. The author uses a combination of ancient mythology, New Age influences and his own version of imaginary constructs to build an eschatology. The author obviously struggles with spirtual reality. The higher moral values are certainly an improvement on the last two volumes. I was beginning to see Kasper, the Duke as a projection of the author's own self for most of the third volume is centered on him.

Great storyline and performance

I love the way feist writes. Always leaving the details to the reader while focussing on the main points lets the listener create the image of the story in our own mind. The set piece scenes reinforce the characters development in a way that even the most despicable characters become ones that you are glad to see return in the plot.

Strongly recommend. I hope there's a tv series upcoming with these books.

The reader is great also, alternating the voices so you can easily slip into the world without having to closely follow the conversations. Great for if you are doing something which sporadically detaches your concentration from the audiobook. Definitely recommend a purchase!!!

Simply brilliant
