Of Darkness and Light

The Bound and the Broken, Book 2

De: Ryan Cahill

Narrado por: Derek Perkins

Heroes will rise. Nations will fall.

Behind the towering walls of Belduar, Calen Bryer and his companions stand in defense of the city and its new king. In over a thousand years, Belduar has never fallen. It has stood as a bastion of hope. But the Lorian empire are at its walls once more, and the Dragonguard are coming.

In the North, with Faenir by her side, Calen’s sister Ella arrives at the port of Antiquar. She holds no fear of the unknown. She will see this through, no matter what–or who–gets in her way.

Meanwhile, at the embassy of the Circle of Magii in Al’Nasla, Rist Havel hones his newfound powers in preparation for the trials. Unbeknownst to Rist, he is being watched, measured, and judged. He was not taken into the Circle by chance. There is greatness in him. But great men can do terrible things.

As Lorian forces land on southern shores and Aeson Virandr’s letters of rebellion find their way to the right hands, only the Knights of Achyron see the true danger...the danger that stirs in the darkness.

The coming shadow will not stop. It will consume all in its path. It wants for nothing but blood and fire.

Epic Fantasy

For me this book has a familiar but distinct feeling. I am so happy to have read this. By virtue of being such a long book there is some pacing but it has been fun to explore this world and its hero’s. Worth the listen!

A Fantasy Masterpiece Forged in Fire and Light!!

My God bro this was the best fantasy book I have ever read. I legit could not put it down. The Knights of Achyron are the coolest order I have ever come across like a mix between a Shardbearer from the Stormlight series and a Green Lantern. Ryan Cahill nailed it.

Soooo much fun

This has to be my favorite fantasy series of this decade. I’ve already lost many hours of sleep because I was simply too excited to stop listening. If you liked book 1, this is even better!

Looking forward to book 3!

I'm fully immersed in this world and am really looking forward to learning more about what our heros are facing and how they will inevitably defeat them. Seriously though, this is some fun straight up fantasy adventure with a fairly interesting world that keeps the pages turning! I did 2 and a novella in a row and I am not at all burnt out. I listen when I walk and read the rest of the time and this narrator makes me walk rather than drive so I can get a few more read to me chapters in, he is good!

storyline and descriptive writing

this series just keeps on giving. great arcs and twists. can't wait to see what he throws out next.
