Resumen del Editor

A brand-new epic fantasy adventure set in the beloved world of the Demon Cycle, following a new generation of heroes, from New York Times best-selling author Peter V. Brett.

Fifteen years have passed since the end of the war with demons, creatures of darkness who have hunted the night and plagued humanity since time out of mind. The heroes of humanity’s hour of need have become legend, and those who remain struggle to escape their shadows.

Olive Paper and Darin Bales have grown up in this new peaceful world. Demons have been all but destroyed, but dangers still lurk for the children of heroes.

Olive, princess of Hollow, has her entire life planned out by her mother, Duchess Leesha Paper: a steady march on a checklist to prepare her for succession. The more her mother writes the script, the more Olive rails against playing the parts she is assigned.

Darin faces challenges of a different kind. Though free to choose his own path, the weight of legacy hangs heavy around his shoulders. It isn’t easy being the son of the man people say saved the world. Everyone expects greatness from Darin, but the only thing he’s ever been great at is hiding.

But when Olive and Darin step across the wards one night, they learn the demons are not all gone, and those that remain hunger for revenge. Events are set in motion that only prophecy can foresee as Olive and Darin seek to find their own places in the world in time to save it again.

great start to a continuation of the warded man

I really wasn't expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. it started off a little shaky but hit it's stride soon, the graphic audio cast did a fantastic job.

It's not great, but not bad either.

It's not a bad story, but it's a story set 15 years after the Demon Cycle series. It's pretty difficult to follow that storyline and to also create a world that had been at peace long enough to begin to forget war as well as to show both the technological, economical, and sociological advancements of that that world. It could've been better, but it was entertaining enough to justify buying the audiobook

I honestly cant

performance is great, writing is amazing. this just isn't the story for me, if you're looking for LGBT fantasy this is for you

Over production makes it harder to understand.

The music laid over the audio is too repetitious. Also the narration is awkwardly slow, (Audiobook publishers do this all the time so the book's hour length looks more impressive. Like upping font size weirdly big for more pages.) The standard fix is to turn up the playback speed but that makes the music and gratuitous effects sound extra weird and difficult to listen past.
