About this listen

Thara Celehar has lost his ability to speak with the dead. When that title of Witness for the Dead is gone, what defines him?

While his title may be gone, his duties are not. Celehar contends with a municipal cemetery with fifty years of secrets, the damage of a revethavar he’s terrified to remember, and a group of miners who are more than willing to trade Celehar’s life for a chance at what they feel they’re owed.

Celehar does not have to face these impossible tasks alone. Joining him are his mentee Velhiro Tomasaran, still finding her footing with the investigative nature of their job; Iäna Pel-Thenhior, his beloved opera director friend and avid supporter; and the valiant guard captain Hanu Olgarezh.

Amidst the backdrop of a murder and a brewing political uprising, Celehar must seek justice for those who cannot find it themselves under a tense political system. The repercussions of his quest are never as simple they seem, and Celehar’s own life and happiness hang in the balance.

The narrator Liam Gerrard gives great voices to the characters, as in the previous two books, but mispronounces key words (e.g. nohecharei, Michen'theileian), as set out in The Goblin Emperor narrated by Kyle McCarley. Why wasn’t the same pronunciation used? Very jarring. Luckily, it is only a small part of the overall narrative.

A missed opportunity for consistent pronunciation

Thara Celehar continues his adventures - or as he would put it, attends to his duties as a prelate. He is a very endearing character, with enormous integrity, humility and strength. If you liked the others in the series, you will like this. The narrator continues to be excellent.

Detective work and political intrigue meets fantasy and dragons. And as a bonus, filing in a very messy office!

So many genres blended expertly
