About this listen

When legends come to life, the world trembles from a single name. Ronin. Once-heroes from a different age, they wield elemental powers: wind, water, fire, stone, forest, sun, moon, flesh, and metal.

At the same time, a young man discovers his best friend with a sword in her stomach and dark wings sprouting from her back. Guards rush to the scene and accuse him of the act, and he is forced to flee.

In a new world without his memories, Gray must find his way amid legends and darkness, as he wrestles with an elemental power inside himself. A power all too similar to the infamous Ronin.

I’ve read these three books before listening to them, and in preparation for the the fourth have listened to them. What an experience and I can not recommend enough, this is the sort of book that you can see will have a movie / tv deal at some point, as each novel is epic and the underlying story is epic. Not a wasted moment and the narrator is really good, same voices throughout, no bizarre music in the background and really does the book justice *****

How’s your name memory?
Prepare to be introduced to 15 some main characters and completely loose track when they decide to have a group conversation.
All of the “ronin” are described like anime characters, the word “damn” is simply replaced with the word “dice” (no I’m not kidding)
And how am I supposed to be scared by any of the evil aligned characters/beings when literally each one after the other is introduced within two chapters without any preamble. Shoddy world building, shoddy editing.
Got a good 15 or so hours in, gave up.
