Of Sea and Shadow

The Elder Empire: Sea, Book 1

De: Will Wight

Narrado por: Travis Baldree

The Guild of Navigators has ruled the Aion Sea for centuries, using their fleet of mystical ships to collect trade for the Aurelian Empire.

Now, the Emperor is dead.

For Calder Marten, Captain of The Testament, the Emperor’s death is not an end, but an opportunity. He and his crew seek the legendary Heart of Nakothi, an artifact that could raise a second Emperor...and earn Calder a fortune.

But they’re not the only ones who want the Heart.

The Consultant’s Guild, an ancient order of spies and assassins, will stop at nothing to keep the world in chaos. They seek to destroy the Heart, and prevent the world from uniting under a single Emperor ever again.

On the seas, a man works to restore the dying Empire.

In the shadows, a woman seeks to destroy it.

Will you explore the seas here with Calder? Or will you walk the shadows with Shera, in the parallel novel Of Shadow and Sea?

Clean Fun!

I've really enjoyed the other books by the same author. this book the first in a series of six, two parallel trilogies, is no exception! I'm so glad I started it, but best of all I can share it with my kids because it's very cleanly written! nothing dirty at all but loads of action. thank you so much will!

Becoming a Will Wight fan

I started with the Cradle series, and as of Spring 2021, they are not finished. :( So I went seeking other Will Wight books. I had a difficult transition from the Cradle series and took a little break.

This being the first in a new series I must say I am intrigued and look forward to continuing with this and the parallel series.

Great imagination, story telling, and characters. All in all, good stuff!

Fun and entertaining

Refreshingly new adventure in this genre of fantasy storytelling. Quirky characters and clever dialogue entertain. Seafarers and unusual creatures give the reader a break from the typical elves, dragons and wizards found in traditional forest fantasy. Plus the author offers the reader paralleling books in the series told from different perspectives and motivation of the main characters.
