About this listen
But what if the boy hero and the malevolent, threatening taint were one and the same?
What if the boy slowly came to realize he was the reincarnation of an evil god? Would he save the world . . . or destroy it?
Among the Academy's warrior-thieves, Annev de Breth is an outlier. Unlike his classmates who were stolen as infants from the capital city, Annev was born in the small village of Chaenbalu, was believed to be executed, and then unknowingly raised by his parents' killers.
Seventeen years later, Annev struggles with the burdens of a forbidden magic, a forgotten heritage, and a secret deformity. When he is subsequently caught between the warring ideologies of his priestly mentor and the Academy's masters, he must choose between forfeiting his promising future at the Academy or betraying his closest friends. Each decision leads to a deeper dilemma, until Annev finds himself pressed into a quest he does not wish to fulfil.
Will he finally embrace the doctrine of his tutors, murder a stranger, and abandon his mentor? Or will he accept the more difficult truth of who he is . . . and the darker truth of what he may become . . .©2019 Justin Travis Call (P)2019 Orion Publishing Group

A unique coming of age
The author was not afraid to challenge traditional arcs, and whilst dark at times, it was still hopeful and enrapturing. I look forward to the next one.

Great book
It took me about 10 chapters to get into this book, but once I was over that hurdle I absolutely loved it.
Very interesting, captivating and extremely well read by Peter Kenny (in fact the main reason I gave this book a go is because Peter Kenny was narrating).
Can't wait for the next installment.

Good story and narration
Enjoyed the tale, looking forward to the next book. Excellent narration by Peter Kenny, as always. After just finishing the Witcher series I was worried about hearing Geralt or Ceri's 'voices' but Peter is too skilled to let that happen.

Slow story, but interestingly different
I guess I was expecting it to be a little different, or progress slightly more during this first book. the back story and world is very interesting and well thought out, but it takes a long time to uncover it in the book. contrary to the slow story pace, the narrator talked far to fast for me, so U had to listen to the book at a 0,75 speed, which might have added to it feeling long I guess. it's a good listen if your patient
