Publisher's summary

Politics are hell.

Kaylin wasn’t sent to the West March to start a war. Her mission to bring back nine Barrani might do just that, though. She traveled with a Dragon, and her presence is perceived as an act of aggression in the extremely hostile world of Barrani-Dragon politics. Internal Barrani politics are no less deadly, and Kaylin has managed - barely - to help the rescued Barrani evade both death and captivity at the hands of the Consort.

Before the unplanned “visit” to the West March, Kaylin invited the Consort to dinner. For obvious reasons, Kaylin wants to cancel dinner - forever. But the Consort is going to show up at the front door at the agreed-upon time. The fact that she tried to imprison Kaylin’s guests doesn’t matter at all...to her.

A private Barrani hell, built of shadow and malice, exists beneath the high halls. It is the High Court’s duty to jail the creature at its heart - even if it means Barrani victims are locked in the cage with it. The Consort is willing to do almost anything to free the trapped and end their eternal torment. She needs the help of Kaylin’s houseguests - and Kaylin herself. Failure won’t be death - it will be hell. That’s where Kaylin is going.

Cast in Oblivion

From beginning to end I enjoyed this book. Love how Kaylin is growing more mature.

Riveting!

I could not stop listening until the end of the story! Had to force myself to go to sleep and continued to listen as soon as I got up.

Loved it!

Another great story and I look forward to the next one. Thank you for the entertainment.

best series ever!

loved this book! when will they make the series into a movie series? I re-listen to this series so often that if it were a CD it would warp from being played so often.

Another fantastic story from Michelle Sagara

I adore the pairing of Michelle Sagara’s universe with Khristine Ivan’s vocal performance. I’ve listened to their audiobooks every time since I was first introduced to the Cast series several years ago.

On one hand, I am super grateful for every foray into the worlds, and if the series eventually ends I will be sad to see it go. On the other hand, for crying out loud, it’s been over a decade or something and it feels like we’re still a long ways from resolution. I wonder if some of the threads will ever be resolved or if we’ll just have an abrupt end to it, and then I’ll be royally upset.

I was a die-hard fan for years and even ran a website with some other fans, but my enthusiasm had considerably waned. Then I listen to the story and remember why I loved her so much. (Them, since Khristine and Michelle make their own magic in this audio partnership.)

One of my favorite series!

I enjoy this series so much and Khristine Hvam's performance of the characters that I always relisted to the books before the release of each new book by Michelle. I enjoy her main character and laugh at the "But" that is her favorite word. I wish I could see this series published in a graphic novel. Hint! Hint! It would be awesome!

I love this series!

I have loved every single book in this series and this one is one of the best in the series. Kaylin really seems to grow in this volume. Her friends also grow and mature. Her sphere of influence is expanding and so are the troubles that she faces.
I loved that a problem that had been discovered and put aside in one of the first books is finally confronted in this one. The ending made tears come to my eyes, but you’ll have to read it for yourself to find out why. You won’t regret it!
My only issues were some minor inconsistencies in the storyline which kept me from giving a 5 star rating in the overall category. If there’s anyone who read the last one and wanted, or in my case did, scream “Wilson! His name was Wilson! Who the **** is Winston,” you’ll probably have a moment or two of this feeling. But the story is worth it.
Argh now I have to wait until next year for the next volume! 。・°°・(＞_＜)・°°・。

Growth where is it?

Over all the cohort story has come to a semi end for now, but what I want to know is when will katlin be allowed to be more than just a private in the Hawks? She has been in the service for more than what 5 -6 years or more. And most office's learn to make faster decision then she was making on the streets it could be life or death if she keeps taking that long to see the bigger picture. Let her grow up more she is over 22 years old and lived a life on the streets in Nightshade while she has learned to truest she does know better her life has left her no choice.

Another great story in the ongoing saga.

I cannot wait until the next book is released. Only issue I had was recognizing character’s voices. Several people sounded the same.

Another winner!

Excellent, as always. I love this series and can't get enough of this world she has created.
