Publisher's summary

Three years have passed since Tarmun Vykers’ victory over the mad sorcerer who called himself the End-of-All-Things. But they’ve been three long years confined to a sick bed with a grievous wound that will not heal, cannot be healed by any means known to man. And then, something unthinkable happens, and Vykers is summoned once again to save the kingdom.

This same mysterious event ensnares Long Pete and his companions, reuniting them for a mission whose consequences none can anticipate and not all will survive. Will Vykers master his wound, or will it finally end him? Can Long Pete serve both his queen and his family? And what of the A’Shea, Aoife, who finds herself torn between her faith and her powerful attraction to the Reaper? In a world in which the gods play with the fates of men as mischievous boys torture insects, nothing but strife is certain.

Loving the multiple strong characters,

Book two starts a bit slower than book one but begins to strengthen some side characters for the longer story arch. Love the way the main character Tarmun Vykers is portrayed. Dark, with a surprising amount of humor. The audio book narrator does a great job keeping the characters separate and engaging. Allen Batchelder will definitely be on my short list of authors to keep an eye on.

There are missing sections of the book.

For instance at the end of chapter two. It skips from beginning their journey to something about a frog.
