About this listen

Leo Carew's much-lauded Under the Northern Sky trilogy draws to its spellbinding conclusion....

Albion continues to be divided by revolt and bloodshed, as alliances collapse and are made anew.

Driven obsessively for glory, the upstart Bellamus and his exiled queen Aramilla are marshalling resistance and building a powerful army.

Returning to the Hindrunn, Keturah is forced to fend for herself, battling enemies on all sides just when she is most in need of a place of safety.

And all the while, the young Black Lord must deal not only with the aftermath of a great betrayal, but the cold shadow of the Kryptea, threatening to destroy everything he has fought for....

Loved it. A wonderful end to a brutally cold and involving series. I would love to see and hear more of the world - never stop mr Carew! Give us an Australian version of alternative Albion!

My only gripe, and it’s a small one, is that mr Addis is perhaps more of a voice actor than a narrator (and he’s very good at the former). This is very much so a personal preference but I prefer audiobooks to audio dramas - there was a phenomenal energy and passion to his delivery…but I was after something a bit more relaxed. Not a bad thing, just not my thing. Overall: 9.9/10

Very good
