About this listen

Of the eight affinities in Netherdei, Falken is the only follower of Shadow.

Hunted by demonic spirits and imperial forces, Falken must help liberate his fellow cultivators and prepare for all that is to come. His former home, the Ardent Lunar Sect, lies broken, the man he thought of as a father buried in the ruins.

To understand his powers and unlock the secrets of his fabled obsidian sword, Falken is forced to leave the safety of the oubliette. Through tragedies and new horrors, Falken and his friends must venture across the seas to the kingdom of Diyu, the land of ancient cultivators.

But the shadows hide all manner of beasts, and a trickster demon of the Hidden Realm watches Falken’s progress with a covetous eye.

For even the gods don’t want Falken to obtain the Darkest Core....

About the series: The Darkest Core is the sequel to number one international Amazon and Audible best seller The Shadow Sect. The series is a tale of magicking, cultivation, and fantasy, perfect for fans of The Witcher and Avatar: The Last Airbender, and is inspired by the worlds of xianxia and wuxia.
