    Twenty-two years after the Second World War, a precarious balance of power maintains the peace between Great Britain and the USSR. For decades, the warlocks have been all that stand between the British Empire and the Soviet Union-- a vast domain stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the shores of the English Channel. But now each death is another blow to Britain's security.

    Story

    Decent followup to first book. Performance was solid. Story was good, but it felt like in the final chapters, the writer came up against a deadline and just ended the book as quick as possible. It left me with many questions about things that happened in the first book. Not "maybe there will be a third book", kind of questions, but "well, that makes no sense" kind of questions. The old multiple timeline/timeline paradox thing is kind of tired and I thought the writer used a variation of that theme to explain away some of the characters motivations and actions that should have been explained by good storytelling. Still, I enjoyed the premise of the books and found them both worth listening to.
