About this listen

The sea dragons are returning, and Joron Twiner's dreams of freedom lie shattered. His Shipwife is gone, and all he has left is revenge.

Leading the black fleet from the deck of Tide Child, Joron takes every opportunity to strike at his enemies, but he knows his time is limited. His fleet is shrinking, and the Keyshan's Rot is running through his body. He runs from a prophecy that says he and the avian sorcerer, the Windseer, will end the entire world.

But the sea dragons have begun to return, and if you can have one miracle, who is to say that there cannot be another?

Wow. What a book and what a perfect performance from the narrator. I’m floored by both and will be left recovering for a while!

One of the best performances I’ve heard

This is a good read. It’s entertaining and has some strong characters. But in my opinion it’s not as good as his Wounded Kingdom series which is what got me interested in this in the first place.

If you like ship-based stuff you’ll like this. if you don’t like ship-based stuff and are only considering reading this because of Wounded Kingdom - read this (it is enjoyable) but I wouldn’t prioritise it on your reading list.

Good Read, Solid Story
