About this listen

The Traitor concludes the ruthless and gripping epic fantasy series from New York Times bestseller Anthony Ryan, whose books have sold more than a million copies worldwide.

It's been a long journey for Alwyn Scribe. Born a bastard and raised an outlaw, he's now a knight and the most trusted advisor to Lady Evadine Courlain. Together they've won countless battles and helped to bring order to a fractured kingdom.

Yet Evadine is not the woman Alwyn once knew. As puritanical fury increasingly replaces her benevolent faith, Alwyn begins to question what her true motives really are.

As the kingdom braces itself for one final battle, Alwyn's conscience fights its own war with his heart. Now, more than ever, he must decide whose side he's really on.

Fantastic balance between horror and beauty. Strong characters that weave a tale of many years. Alwyn Scribe is cleverly constructed and the supporting roles are well defined.Ryan’s typically convoluted plot resolves well in this one and the dab of the uncanny is well balanced. More like this please Anthony!

chapter 36 has problems with audio quality that is frustrating in my enjoyment of a conclusion to an excellent series.

This book really just failed to complete the story. Felt like a rushed mess with no good plot lines or twist just ruined the first two books which I loved

The traitor indeed
