About this listen

Can the youngest son of a noble house save his family from a plot generations in the making?

Crispin Marlowe grew up in his brother’s shadow, but Hadrian is gone, and his grandmother - the Duchess of Delos - is dying.

Answering her summons, Crispin takes off on what should be a routine flight to the ducal palace from the castle at Devil’s Rest. But he is flying into a trap. There are whispers of treachery among the duchess’s many daughters, rumors of hidden knives in the planet’s court...if he can even make it there.

With no one coming to save him and only his sister, Sabine, and a few injured guardsmen to protect him, House Marlowe’s least famous son must make his heroic stand, and contend not only the foes arrayed against his house, but with the cultists who dwell in the mountains above his family’s ancestral home....

A Must Read for Suneater Fans

Loved it. It completely changed my perspective of a specific character. If you like Suneater, read it!

Crispin redemption

I Honestly really liked this little addition to the series, a nice little redemption arc and a peek of what’s going on at Hadrians home

Background listen

The story feels like it is going the motions, with detailed descriptions of battles etc. But the characters lack any depth and personality, it didn't really engage me.
