About this listen

Adopest has fallen....

Field Marshal Tamas returns to his beloved country to find that for the first time in history, the capital city of Adro lies in the hands of a foreign invader. His son is missing and his allies are indistinguishable from his foes, and reinforcements are several weeks away.

With the Kez still bearing down upon them and without clear leadership, the Adran army has turned against itself. Inspector Adamat is drawn into the very heart of this new mutiny with promises of finding his kidnapped son.

And Taniel Two-shot, hunted by men he once thought his friends, must safeguard the only chance Adro has of getting through this war without being destroyed....

Really enjoyed this book which rounded out the trilogy beautifully. A great story with well rounded characters bought to life by Christian Rhodska's reading. An exceptional package!

Fabulous!

Really spectacular story. I didn't feel like any of the books in the series were weaker than the other, the consistency across the series is truely impressive. Additionally, I love that each book is around 30h!! Nice fast paced action that doesn't end way too fast nor eat up audible credits way too fast.

Characters feel alive and the magic used is not insanely overpowered (which, I feel, is sometimes used by authors as a crutch for when things don't make sense. Glad to not see that here).

Potential spoiler alert** I also liked finally seeing a story where the union leader is not the traitor/real antagonist. I mean I'm not super pro-union but I think they're unfairly depicted in a lot of media when they've historically (and currently) have been important in alleviating inequality.

Back on topic: Very well done final book.

The performance was amazing too!! Rodska is a master of his craft. The only oddity (really minor) was the voice chosen for Borbador given his youth (sounds a bit too old imo).

I highly recommend!

What an ending!

Much better pacing than some of the other fantasy greats I've recently gone through however my only grievance is that that the trilogies big bad comes a bit out of nowhere, could've used more lore building, and foreshadowing

Overall good, single grievance

The Autumn Republic was an absolutely amazing third and final book in The Powder Mage trilogy.
Fantastic twists and turns right up to the very end. Also with every question/storyline tied up.

cool varient of mage and magic. strong story that was a little long winded at times,for me. Brian McClellan writes so well and this journey was brilliant. I have found another great author to follow. I liked the end to this story. thank you.

I needed a map in the second book to show me where Tamus and his army went.
I was lost. My visualisation of direction is always wrong, but the army managed to find its way home.
They ended their war with the Kez, only to find Adopest, has been invaded by another army brought in by the worst god of the lot.
The god wasn’t the only one with two faces.
Adamat has his eyes opened from his own investigations.
Good wins over evil.
Tamus finds his rest.
Taniel makes a wise choice.

A thrilling ending
