About this listen

How do you tempt an archmage who has everything?

From a dark and dusty tomb, Elminster emerges, seeking the guidance of Mystra, and finds only silence. He is drawn into the clutches of the mysterious and sinister Lady of Shadows. The path he takes will lead to a Realms-shaking confrontation where Elminster has to make the most important choice of his long life.

Whatever he decides, the Realms will be forever changed…

a jarring departure from the previous two

the first 2 elminster books were fantastic, which is why I find it so surprising how bad the temptation of Elminster is. The main plot is nonexistent, A ton of new characters are introduced without any background so you spend most of your time struggling to remember who this character is and what they're doing. aside from the book itself, the narration makes it more confusing because it doesn't even pause when going to another character, so if you miss a line you can be struggling to see who the story is focusing on.

very disappointed considering how good the first two were, I'm hesitant to buy the next in the series because of this one.
