A brand-new epic fantasy adventure set in the beloved world of the Demon Cycle, following a new generation of heroes, from New York Times best-selling author Peter V. Brett.

Fifteen years have passed since the end of the war with demons, creatures of darkness who have hunted the night and plagued humanity since time out of mind. The heroes of humanity’s hour of need have become legend, and those who remain struggle to escape their shadows.

Olive Paper and Darin Bales have grown up in this new peaceful world. Demons have been all but destroyed, but dangers still lurk for the children of heroes.

Olive, princess of Hollow, has her entire life planned out by her mother, Duchess Leesha Paper: a steady march on a checklist to prepare her for succession. The more her mother writes the script, the more Olive rails against playing the parts she is assigned.

Darin faces challenges of a different kind. Though free to choose his own path, the weight of legacy hangs heavy around his shoulders. It isn’t easy being the son of the man people say saved the world. Everyone expects greatness from Darin, but the only thing he’s ever been great at is hiding.

But when Olive and Darin step across the wards one night, they learn the demons are not all gone, and those that remain hunger for revenge. Events are set in motion that only prophecy can foresee as Olive and Darin seek to find their own places in the world in time to save it again.

I absolutely love this story!

I'm a big fan of Melody Muze because of ACOTAR so imagine my surprise when I accidentally stumbled across this book! Technically, I was searching for audiobooks she's perfomed in because I love her that much. I just wasn't expecting to like this book as much as I do. I'm very much interested and I can't wait to find out what happens next now that her kidnappers know her big secret.

make sure you want the graphic audio

I accidentally purchased this one instead of the actual book. Definitely my mistake, spending credits too quickly. but hopefully my negative review reminds somebody else to double check themselves. I wasted a credit on this when I could have gotten the full book. I actually don't even mind the graphic audio version, it's still entertaining and an interesting idea. Some of the voices were a little annoying to me at first but I got used to it. I was annoyed when I only got part 1 of 3 for a whole credit, when I could have just gotten the entirety of the normal boom for the same amount. Now I either need to shell out $17 for the real book, or wait a month for another credit. Nothing wrong with this book, I'm just frustrated with audible and needed a place to rant I guess....
