About this listen
Book 2 in Raymond E. Feist’s bestselling Firemane Saga!
Hatushaly and his young wife Hava are living a good life, working to reopen the burned-out Inn of the Three Stars in the prosperous trading town of Beran's Hill.
But there is a great deal more to this bucolic scene than meets the eye. Both Hatu and Hava were raised on the secret island of Coaltachin, and though they may appear to be no more than a young couple in love, preparing for the midsummer festival where their friends Declan and Gwen will be wed, they are in fact assassins on a mission, waiting instructions from their masters in the Kingdom of Night.
Moreover, Hatu is the last remaining member of the ruling family of Ithrace – the legendary Firemanes. He dyes his flaming red hair, and has studied to control his dangerous magical powers. But however hard Hatu may be hiding from all those who would seek to use or to destroy him, fate has other plans.
Horrific events are approaching Beran's Hill, bringing death and devastation to the peaceful town as unknown and monstrous forces are unleashed. And nothing will ever be the same again.

Readers voice is biggest let down

One of the major differences I have seen in this series VS the Magician series are well fleshed out female characters who are not damsels in distress. It is a gratifying to have characters who are well rounded and capable with interesting personalities and backgrounds. I have often felt that lacking in Feist's previous work (Servant of the Empire trilogy as the marked exception with Jany Wurts' influence). While some characters are still of the damsel trope, it is framed with the context of the story and is less glaring.
Some of the voices were particularly grating but I suppose that was the intended effect as the characters weren't supposed to be likeable. Otherwise, the reading performance was great.
Phenomenal
