Blackflame

De: Will Wight

Narrado por: Travis Baldree

This title will be streaming in Audible Plus through September 1st, 2021.

Lindon has a year left.

When his time runs out, he’ll have to fight an opponent that no one believes he can beat. Unless he learns sacred arts the right way, from scratch, he won’t have a chance to win...and even then, the odds are against him.

In the course of their training, he and Yerin travel to the Blackflame Empire, where they fight to master an ancient power left behind by a fallen clan. This is Lindon’s chance to learn a true Path, but there are those who do not wish to see these lost techniques revived.

Success means a chance at life, but failure means death.

In the sacred arts, those who risk the most travel the farthest.

Excellent story, Imaginative, Full of Action

Wow. Really loved this third book in the Cradle series. Moved along nicely with lots of challenges, combat and advancement up the ranks of power. Taking the path of the Blackflame was risky but through it all Lindon remains humble yet fixed on his destiny. I highly recommend this audible book.

Beginning to end a fine addition to the series!

Once again the author's tail is delivered with narrator's complementary work. The world building is amazing as the most mundane positions in life are raised to new heights, continuation of understanding of the hierarchy of the world that they have created, and further realizing the scope of every line that has been drawn up to now.

excellent continuation of the series

another chapter and a fantastic series I'm looking forward to the next installment of the series

Where the story really picks up

The first two are a good start, but BlackFlame is where Cradle really gets going.

If you haven’t, just go ahead and get it. You won’t regret it.

A little dragged out

I am enjoying this series but found the Blackflame trails repetitive. The narration is very good.

best one so far.

The first two were pretty good, but this one will ensure I finish the series.

Exhilarating adventure

Could not stop. Kept listening until 5 in the morning until I finished it. The narrator is so good, especially the way he portrayed Eithan's arrogant tone. Lindon and Yerrin continue to improve their arts and are put into very tough situations that they struggle to overcome. So far, the story doesn't let up and keeps me engaged and I can't wait to start on the next one.

I cannot get enough of this series. I love it!

Clean language. Little romance. A lot of power leveling. Fantastic magic system. Great plot. This has been one of my all time favorite series, bar none. I have over 250 audio books in my audiobook library and I've waded through countless books that are total trash. This is not one of them. It's good, really good. I devoured the first 10 books in this series. My only complaint is each book is a little short, and some of the books contain a stupid 30 minutes of the next book, making what I already thought were short books a little shorter. But that's a small price to pay for how much I love this series.

Do you like what I like?
Cradle (one of my favs)
Master Hunter K (true hidden gem)
Awaken Online (Plenty to sink your teeth into)
Life Reset (Shemer Kuznits in general)
Ready Player 1 & 2
Wheel of Time
Almost everything from Brandon Sanderson. Seriously. He's the best.
Michael J. Sullivan's books (The Riyria Revelations and spin offs - high epic / fantasy)
Red Rising (Tim Gerard Reynolds - futuristic / sci-fi)
The Path to Paz (YA fantasy)

More decent LitRPG stuff:
Noobtown (fun/light)
He Who Fights With Monsters
Irrelevant Jack (surprisingly decent and "clean", which for LitRPG is uncommon)
Ascend Online
Dungeon Crawler Carl

Currently listening to?
Expeditionary Force by Craig Alanson.
Just starting this series and by chapter 10 I am really getting into it.

Why would I promote these other authors as well? I believe that good writing needs to be promoted. The more we support good authors, the more they will put out for us to enjoy! Simple as that.

Best one yet!

I was hesitant with the first book but the series keeps getting better. This was the best one yet!

Magical world

Excellent world creation. Love the dry humor and intrigue. Series is binge worthy. Plot not immediately discernible, which makes it a great listen.
