Tavi of Calderon, now recognized as Princeps Gaius Octavian and heir to the crown, has achieved a fragile alliance with Alera's oldest foes, the savage Canim. But when Tavi and his legions guide the Canim safely to their lands, his worst fears are realized. The dreaded Vord - the enemy of Aleran and Cane alike - have spent the last three years laying waste to the Canim homeland. And when the Alerans are cut off from their ships, they find themselves with no choice but to fight shoulder to shoulder if they are to survive.

So much better

Most of the reviews dont mention that originally there were trumpets and horns very very often in this book and it was bad. This is soooo much better.

Narration, so good, you'll find yourself thirsty.

Amanda Leigh Cobb brings life to this world of magic and monsters, and those trying to live their lives. Silvers and O'Connell deliver, in this new story in the Temple-verse. You can start your journey from here, if you would prefer, though I would insist on checking the rest of the books out at some time, as you will not be disappointed. From beginning to end, the story is compelling. You will laugh, cry, and curse like a sailor. In the end, you will be glad you made the journey.

From the first line to the shocking conclusion of this book, you are held captive by the narration, performed by Nicole Poole, While listening to this book, I found myself spending more time in my car, just listening. "One more chapter", is what i would utter, all the time. I couldn't put it down. Neither will you. Enjoy.

Excellent Storytelling
Reviewed: 01-23-19
Between the narration by Sara Morsey, and the storytelling by Tahani Nelson, this book was, to be quite honest, addictive. I would find myself, sitting in my car, captivated by the story, lost in the other world. It is a must listen to, story, and I am eager to dive into that would again, and again.

Once again, Brandon Sanderson has proven worthy of the title, World builder. Narrated by Michael Kramer, it is one of many reasons I love the audio books. His voice brings the characters to life.
