Truthmarked

The Fatemarked Epic, Book 2

De: David Estes

Narrado por: Derek Perkins

The Hundred Years War rages on, with tensions between kingdoms growing ever more strained.

While Annise Gäric and her forces march on Castle Hill to retake the northern throne, her cousin, Rhea Loren, wages a naval war against Blackstone. Meanwhile, Roan Loren and Gwendolyn Storm struggle to breach the gnarled, vine-choked undergrowth of the Tangle in their quest to reach Knight's End and learn more of the true purpose of the fatemarked.

In the south, a Calypsian empress is murdered, and her daughters fight to claim the empire and wage a civil war against their estranged father's armies. In Phanes, slavery runs rampant while a rebel group fights to free the oppressed people. A master named Jai Jiroux looks to help the rebel cause, an act of treason punishable by death.

Surrounding the Four Kingdoms is the pall cast by the Kings' Bane, who continues his quest to kill eight rulers and thus fulfill the Western Oracle's ancient prophecy, which he believes will pave to way to peace across the realms.

awesome story / series!

Love these books! So interesting and captivating and just don't want to put it down!!

Amazing book!

Must Read for fans of Game of Thrones! All characters have so many layers and you root for them even if they aren't heroes because nobody is that black and white. Everyone has shades of grey.

A amazing tale

Don’t even listen to the people who say that this a horrible or bad book

Love this series!

Great series! I recommend this series to any fantasy book fans. So hard to stop listening!

Incredible

This series (only through book 4), is the perfection of a fantasy and medieval nexus. Digestible, absurdly effective character development, a unique fantasy perspective, and yet it never really overly taxes the imagination. Also love the recaps at the start of every book. Tied for best fantasy series ever for me with Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Shadow of the Apt and the Red Sister series by Mark Lawrence. As close to perfection as it gets.

Well done!

Captivating, couldn't wait to listen, first book I got when trying out this app. will definitely be purchasing the book before this one. the narrator was good, although noticed some trouble with the word sister.

Diverting

Homage filled but entertaining. I've picked out GOT, TLOTR, the Prydain Chronicles, references. but well written

I. Am. Hooked!

Great story writing and pace building toward battles of epic proportions! Looking forward to the next book, for sure!

Wonderful adventure as always

David Estes is my favorite author, he never fails to take you on an adventure with amazing character building, exciting climaxes and beautifully descriptive scenery without being verbose.

Truthmarked has it all, characters you fall in love with, characters you love to hate, a truly captivating landscape, action and adventure and just a pinch of tasteful romance that doesn't rely on being vulgar to get the point across (which is refreshing).

Second book just as good as the first.

This is really starting to be an amazing series. I love this author writing style.

The storylines and characters. All fantastic.

Derek Perkins does such a great job on the narration. Read this series.
