Summary
The last few months of the moontide - when the bridge connecting East and West rises above the sea - has come, and in the West Emperor Constant prepares the final phase of his plan to conquer the East.
For failed mage Alaron and his companion Ramita - widow to the mage who built the Leviathan Bridge - the unthinkable has happened. They have lost the Scytale of Corineus, the key to the Rite of Ascendancy, as well as one of Ramita's infant sons, to the hands of their deadliest enemies.
In Javon, Cera Nesti, the imprisoned queen, has been freed, and plots to take on the overwhelming might of the Rondian Empire. But standing between her and her goal is a band of deadly mercenaries playing a dangerous game of their own.
And in the East, Seth Korion's Lost Legions must navigate treacherous roads to gain safety, bearing secrets that could bring down the Emperor.
The time has come for the Rite of Ascendancy to be performed. New powers must rise to save or damn Urte, and on the mighty Leviathan Bridge itself, all will be decided.

Outstanding series
Amazing is a good word to describe everything about the book, story and narration. Concludes which is always a bonus with certain series although there's a couple of loose ends but nothing major. The narrator was ace. Probably the best I've listened to over the past two years of subscription to audible.

Stunning
I don't usually leave worded reviews,just the appropriate number of deserving stars but after listening to the entire Moontide Quartet I felt I owed it to the author and narrator.
Trying to keep it brief so all I can really say to recommend it is that since childhood i've loved Lord Of The Rings and more recently Game Of Thrones...these books belong in that company. Totally engrossing from start to finish and filled with tension,humour and love.
Nick Podehl deserves a mention for an astonishing performance in bringing these novels to life.
As I said i'll keep it brief but I highly highly recommend this saga to anyone.
Fantastic stuff.

Fantastic
If you could sum up Ascendant's Rite in three words, what would they be?
Satisfying
Exciting
Gripping
What other book might you compare Ascendant's Rite to, and why?
The other 3 books in the series
Any additional comments?
This is a great, great conclusion to a brilliant series.
You know how sometimes a book ends and you feel let down, not with this, the main issues are wrapped up, there is room for continuing and the surprises carry on. I really loved the whole series, I always enjoy Nick Podehl narrating and this whole series has been an absolute pleasure to listen to.
I am just sad it finished :)

I love this narrator he brings it to life and a well written book with huge depth to it.
So many real life issues used to create the characters. I really want to read the next series, the sunsurge quartet

Sophisticated story adeptly written with all the plot loops neatly tied and cleverly delivered.
You won’t regret listening to story filled with several unforeseeable twists, deeply complex personalities and an addictive plot. Fantasy fans will be hooked. Definitely future film material as much as GRRM’s GoT. [Also possibly portrays the grim side to the crusades of the medieval times into Jerusalem?] Totally different and deserving of universal acclaim, well done!
