Ash and Silver

Sanctuary, Book 2

By: Carol Berg

Narrated by: Macleod Andrews

Ever since the Order of the Equites Cineré stole his memory, his name, and his heart, thinking about the past makes Greenshank's head ache. After two years of rigorous training, he is almost ready to embrace the mission of the Order - to use selfless magic to heal the troubles of Navronne. But on his first assignment alone, the past comes racing back, threatening to drown him in conspiracy, grief, and murder. He is Lucian de Remeni - a sorcerer whose magical bents for portraiture and history threaten the safety of the Earth and the future of the war-riven kingdom of Navronne. He just can't remember how or why.

Fighting to unravel the mysteries of his power, Lucian must trace threads of corruption that reach from the Pureblood Registry into the Order itself, the truth hidden two centuries in the past and beyond the boundaries of the world....

Second Book, narrator much better

The narrator finally got into the flow of the book. The first book, he struggled

Fantastic

This book captivated me. The story, the writing, the characters and the hope that it engendered. I did not want it to end. I want another page, another chapter, another book. Read this and its prequel and its companion pieces, The Lighthouse books.

Eros

I loved this book. It has a great plot with several twits I didn't see coming and was rapped up nicely at the as to not leave a cliff hanger.
I couldn't stop lessioning to this book and found myself up late into the night even as I had to get up early the next day. In my opinion this book was better than the first and was definitely worth the listen.

Navrone - Want more

What a wonderful tale from beginning to end! It leaves me wanting to know more of the primary character’s exploits in the future!! The great turn of course set in the first book did right itself in the end! What a wonderfully woven tale to intrigue most everyone! The performance was stellar, as the characters were brought to life in my minds eye through his voice! Will be seeking out more of both of their stories. Thank you, worth the money and time!

Amazing ending, masterful narration

This sequel closes the story beautifully. I was worried how the concurrent timeline with the Flesh and Spirit/Breath and Bone duo, but it worked brilliantly. And I love this narrator. Perfect combo.

The creativity of the world building and conflict.

The reader is very good and well able to distinguish characters. He did justice to a masterful story. Carol Berg is definitely my favorite fantasy writer.

Entrancing

A fine conclusion to the series. Wonders and loss, joy and sadness: victory comes with heavy cost. This is the finest, most engaging fantasy I've read in many years. The audio version is beautifully read. Highest recommendation.

Amazing Aventure with heart and smarts

oh my, read these two books! I could not stop listening. The concept is well made and convincing. The magic makes sense and the characters are lushly drawn. You care about them.
The narrator is talented, versatile and entertaining.
Read and enjoy...

I am sorely dissappointed

I had eagerly awaited this sequel in the Sanctuary series. I truly enjoyed the first book. Unfortunately, the pacing in this book is so slow and the story so not engaging that I found myself only wishing it would end. I felt the book dragged out interminably. I could never raise any empathy for the characters, particularly the main protagonist. In short, the book is monumentally boring.
