Publisher's Summary

Power-hungry Kalare has rebelled against Alera's aging First Lord, Gaius Sextus. Ill-equipped to face this attack, Gaius must seek support - even from the combative High Lord of Aquitaine. Kalare has also seized valuable hostages that could mean the difference between victory and failure. And Amara, the First Lord's Cursor, has been tasked with their rescue. She has earned this trust but are her allies as worthy - or does the Lady Aquitaine see the time as ripe for betrayal?

Treachery is rife elsewhere, as young Tavi of Calderon will find. Posted away from the war, Tavi joins a legion anyway, under an assumed name. Then Kalare does the unthinkable - uniting with the brutish Canim.

When treason wipes out the army's command structure, Tavi finds himself leading an inexperienced legion against the might of the Canim horde - the very last resort of a war-torn realm.

Great! GREAT! But...

Great book, good reading but there was this annoying glitch where the music from the intro kept going off randomly. In the middle of dialogue, battles, etc. Just randomly.

Brilliant story

The story is enough to look past the very average narration, and whats with the horns?

Story and narrator excellent, trumpet fanfares not

Listened to the first of this series and enjoyed it, narrator is easy to listen to and I'm glad she's beach for this second book.
For some unknown reason though this second book has trumpet fanfares throughout- not necessarily at the end of a chapter or anything, more like "We're needing to extend this book by a lot...hmmmm... let's add in a bunch of 5 second fanfares because yay!".
Definitely going to get the next in the series, hopefully it doesn't have the trumpets along the way.

Horns bellow

Random horns sound in the middle of sentences throughout the book, for no reason I can see.
Not at the end of a plot point or chapter, just because, a raging gargant has more sense of timing.
Otherwise brilliant
