Story5 out of 5 stars 184
The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

Publisher's Summary
It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs - once thought of almost as gods - were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.
A representation of these laws is now written into the flesh of any who use the Gift, forcing those so marked into absolute obedience. As a student of the Gifted, Davian suffers the consequences of a war fought - and lost - before he was born. Despised by most beyond the school walls, he and those around him are all but prisoners as they attempt to learn control of the Gift. Worse, as Davian struggles with his lessons, he knows that there is further to fall if he cannot pass his final tests. But when Davian discovers he has the ability to wield the forbidden power of the Augurs, he sets into motion a chain of events that will change everything.
To the north, an ancient enemy long thought defeated begins to stir. And to the west, a young man whose fate is intertwined with Davian’s wakes up in the forest, covered in blood and with no memory of who he is...

I like the narration
I actually chose this book based on the narrators performance. I specifically looked up books that he read on audible. I enjoyed the story difficult to follow at times. Seems like one of those books that you need to be able to flick through the pages look back keep track of certain things. Either way I very much enjoy it

Was looking for something after Wheel of Time...
Very entertaining start to what will hopefully be a great trilogy! If you were a fan of the WOT series you'll likely enjoy this too :)

Fantastic story, so-so narration.
This was one great story! It starts out small and grows and evolves into something epic.
The characters were interesting and had depth, while the plot was intricate and very well thought through.
The only downside was the narrator, but I warmed up to him eventually as I became increasingly engrossed in the story.
This is definitely a BIG recommendation from me!
