Publisher's summary

Song of Night is book two in the best-selling epic fantasy series The Dying Lands Chronicle.

The veil has been torn.

The ancient dark has risen.

Dark harmonies echo throughout the world.

But the ancient Axioms of Light have been spoken once again.

In the midst of the Dark’s swelling tide, Reign Kerr has emerged with the mythical power of the Ancients, a power she wielded to defeat the brutal Borathein invasion. Reign must now discover the keys to the Gates of Confluence if the world has any hope of salvation - a journey that will unearth heretical secrets and change her in ways she may not be strong enough to survive.

Hedron struggles to rebuild Arlethia and solidify his rule in the aftermath of the Borathein invasion, but new threats arise from within and push allegiances to the brink. A subtle darkness stirs within him as he is called upon to look beyond his own people’s welfare, threatening to overwhelm him and put those he strives to lead in mortal danger.

Call forth the Heralds. Gather the Witnesses. Let the Blood of Creation again flow.

This is one of my favorites!!

This series has been a great listen. Make sure you start with the Alter of Influence, it gets you into the world and gives you all the background you need to understand the world.

All the characters in this series are very enjoyable. All to often I listen to books that have a great premise but the characters are unlikeable but that’s definitely not the case here. I loved listening to the arc of each character. Every aspect keeps you engaged and asking for more when Cooper moves on the next chapter. Honestly this book is everything that I could have asked for. I love it!! Can’t wait for the next installment!! Oh and Micheal Kramer is great as always. You should definitely listen to this series!!

A lot to wrap my brain around, in a good way.

It's a complex story. After reading the first book and the prequel, I can say that there is a lot to digest. I am looking forward to the next book to see where this goes. Before it comes out, I will be rereading both all three again.

Fantastic!!!

Fantasy fans this series is incredible, it was a long wait for book 2 but it was worth every minute! I couldn’t stop listening. I could see this series going two to three more books easy! I would devour every one. What do you say Jacob? I hope we don’t have to wait as long on the next one but I totally will if you promise to make it this good!

Couldn’t put down

I thoroughly loved listening to this book the only thing I might dislike about it is now I have to wait and see if there’s a book three or other titles I like by Jacob Cooper.

Best Yet for Jacob Cooper

I've enjoyed every book Jacob Cooper has written, but this has been the best one so far. There's a lot more complexity to this story than I first imagined from the previous books and I love it! I'm really excited to see where this series goes from here.

depth

with the depth of this story I look forward
to the next addition thank you

Another AMAZING book!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Once I got started I was hooked. Cooper really has a way of captivating the audience and just making you never want to put the book down. Can’t wait for the next book to come out!

EPIC AND ORIGINAL!

One of the things that draws me to these stories is the fact that the punches aren't being held. I hurt so much reading this for all the tragedy and loss but I marvel at the  struggle of life and death. I love how the author is painting the story of them losing everything and never giving in, always fighting back even when it would be so easy to give in. That’s what I want for my little girl to learn when she reads these books. That’s why I chose Reigns story for her namesake. It’s what I feel we need to take with us in life, fight back no matter how bad it hurts and stand up. This is the stuff of legends and what makes an epic story. The author has outdone himself. I love how the magic systems are developing and the sheer magnitude of the possibilities. Right before Reign fought Dralghus, the image of her was absolutely perfect. I am positively fiending for the next book. I can’t wait to see whats going to happen and to learn what fresh hell awaits our hero’s. Thank you for your story Jacob!

Another great book by Cooper!

Another solid and unique book in the Dying Lands Chronicle. The story is complex and captivating and the magic system continues to impress me due to its uniqueness. The myriad characters create a complex tapestry that Cooper deftly weaves together. As always, Kramer sure an incredible job with the narration. Highly recommend this book and series!

Love this series!

Once again Michael Kramer did not disappoint nor did Jacob Cooper. This is definitely in my top 5 favorite book series. Yes the characters and storyline can be complex at times but it always kept me engaged, entertained and wanting to hear more. I love this very unique world Jacob Cooper has created and I thoroughly enjoy getting lost in it. In this series there are a lot of characters to keep up with but they are diverse and each very interesting and all play such integral parts to the story itself. Like the previous books in this series Song of Night is very well written and I am ready for another... I can't wait to find out what happens next with Reign, Hedron and Arlethia. This series and this book ticks all the boxes for me. I am a fan. Well done!
