About this listen

An ancient evil. A treacherous king. A mystery going back to the fall of the gods.

In the heart of Vandar, as dark forces close in, Elyon, a gifted Bladeborn knight, fights for his family's survival in a world on the brink of war. In the beleaguered northlands of Tukor, a servant girl with a mysterious past is forced on the run by a treacherous lord, propelling her on a journey that will change her world forever. From the Shadowfort, an ancient power is unleashed, one that will set into motion a series of events that will bring the world to its knees.

With the world on the verge of chaos and countless lives at stake, a new First Blade must be selected, but obstacles stand in the way. Alliances are broken. Enemies are born. Only the strong will survive.

Follow this epic tale where the battle for land, power, and the divine gifts of the Fallen Gods will shape the fates of all.

the last 6 hours of the book were by far the most interesting but the rest fel like it dragged on with multiple perspectives for quite a while with not a lot happening. Every now and again, something would get my attention, start building and then dull out again. I think if it weren't for the Narrator, I probably would have dropped it. I'll be listening to the next book as I bought the pair together and hopefully that is going to be more exciting.

This one was a bit of a slog.

I drive to work at least 45 minutes each way. I really, really looked forward the drive so I could listen to this book.

The character development and progression of the main characters is so engaging. Full of intrigue and a mixed of mythology and medieval.

This book was AWESOME

Very disappointing. The story is dragging. Nothing worthwhile happens and everybody just keeps talking. If I wasn’t a completionist I would have stopped listening to this on the first few hours. Unfortunately, it was torture to go through and finish the whole content. Definitely will not be back for book 2.

What a chore to finish this book

Loved the way each plot is being built and then interlaced with each other. Also enjoyed the audible presentation.

Excellent story
