We Are the Dead

The Last War Trilogy

De: Mike Shackle

Narrado por: Nicola Bryant

The first book in The Last War series: a debut epic fantasy full of crunching revolutionary action, twisted magic, and hard choices in dark times.

The war is over. The enemy won.

Jia's people learned the hard way that there are no second chances. The Egril, their ancient enemy, struck with magic so devastating that Jia's armies were wiped out. Now terror reigns in the streets, and friend turns on friend just to live another day.

Somehow Tinnstra - a deserter, a failure, nothing but a coward - survived. She wants no more than to hide from the chaos.

But dragged into a desperate plot to retake Jia, surrounded by people willing to do anything to win the fight, this time Tinnstra will need to do more than hide.

If Jia is to get a second chance after all, this time she will need to be a hero.

With all the grit of Joe Abercrombie, Mark Lawrence and Ed McDonald, this is fantasy with the sharpest of edges.

Great Book

Curious to see where it goes

Story over all is good and self contained leaving some mystique for where the larger narrative will go. Liked Tinstra as a reluctant hero and good variety of characters.

Thought the performance was solid and enjoyed the German accents.

Will definitely be getting the next volume.

Balanced

an unusual blend of characters easy to relate to, well fleshed out world, the twists and turns kept ylu guessing
