About this listen

The fate of empire is to crumble from within.

A heinous murder in a small village reveals a terrible truth. Sorcery, once thought dead in Enhover, is not. Evidence of an occult ritual and human sacrifice proves that dark power has been called upon again. Twisting threads of clues lead across the known world to the end of a vast empire, and then, the trail returns home.

Duke Oliver Wellesley, son of the king, cartographer, and adventurer, has better things to do than investigate a murder in a sleepy fishing hamlet. For crown and company, though, he goes where he’s told. As the investigation leads to deeper and darker places, he’ll be forced to confront the horrific spectres rising from the shadows of his past. When faced with the truth, will he sacrifice what is necessary to survive?

Samantha serves a church that claims to no longer need her skills. She’s apprenticed to a priest-assassin that no one knows. Driven by a mad prophecy, her mentor has prepared her for a battle with ultimate darkness, except, sorcery is dead. When all is at stake, can she call upon an arcane craft the rest of the world has forgotten?

The fate of empire is to crumble from within. Do not ask when, ask who.

Enjoyable

Decent world building and good to see a LGBT character in a lead role. Makes a change from so many fantasy stories where every barmaid is a sex worker.

Intrigue, airships and the occult

I was not sure what to expect when I started this it seemed interesting and different and it was. I loved the sense of mystery and intrigue.

This is about a murder investigation with links to the occult.

The cast of characters is small but we learn about them without too much back story or an info dump, which is good. We know enough but want to know more.

I loved the world this book is set in Shillings and airships. I want to learn all I can the art on the authors website was nice to look at.

I really like that this was a book for adults no teen drama, or some hero trying to save the world just people doing their job or what they want to.

It was dark at times but not too graphic. It took a little time to get into the story but once I did I could not stop listening.

The narrator is fantastic and I think he should be used more often. One of the best I have listened to.

I think this is the kind of book people will love or hate but I look foward to the next book and I am glad I bought this.
