Publisher's Summary

A lost race of elves, the taredhel or 'people of the stars', have found a way across the universe to reach Midkemia. On their current home world, these elves are hard pressed by a ravaging demon horde, and what was once a huge empire has been reduced to a handful of survivors. The cornerstone of taredhel lore is the tale of their lost origins in the world they call simply 'Home', a place lost in the mists of time. Now they are convinced that Midkemia is that place, and they are coming to reclaim it.

Ruthless and arrogant, the taredhel intend to let nothing stand in their way; but before long, Pug and the Conclave realise that it's not necessarily the elves, but the demon horde pursuing them where the true danger lies. And hanging over Pug always is the prophecy that he will be doomed to watch everyone he loves die before him...

Peter Joyce question mark explanation mark

Ive listened to all of Peter Joyce's work narrating feist's magician series, thus far. ( a couple to go).
no way that was same bloke, who narrated this book. did he have laryngitis and went to work any way. Joyce changed the sounds of all of the voices. Thomas most notably.
still good read. but damm what that

Narration and recording somewhat off-putting.

As many have already noted, character voices are different to previous stories and the overall editing seems hastily done.

Not Peter Joyce

The narrator sounds similar to Peter Joyce but doesn't seem to be him. This narrator pronounces names, and towns wrong/ differently and uses new voices for well established characters.

A bit off.

Pronunciation, accent, and performance for the first half oddly different to all the preceeding books.

Oddly different

Joyce is always great, though something seemed off with this one. Using different voices for characters that he hasn't done before and mispronouncing some their names.. just odd. He almost sounds younger as if he read the last of Raymonds books before moving onto the first ones

Chapters out of sync

Another great book from Raymond E Feist. Also another great reading from Peter Joyce. Not sure if I had a download error but my chapters in audible for this book was all out of sync with 13 hour long chapters when I think there was about 20. Small error can be easily fixed.
