De: R.S. Ford

Narrado por: Alison Campbell, Phoebe McIntosh, Ciaran Saward, Andrew Kingston, Martin Reeve, Mark Meadows, Katie Villa, Diana Croft

"Perfect for fans of Brent Weeks, George R. R. Martin, or David Gemmell . . . . The best traditional epic fantasy I have read in years." — Grimdark Magazine on Engines of Empire

“An excellent start to a new series: fast-paced and engaging, with a properly epic setting and a cast of characters I look forward to seeing more of.” – James Islington, author of The Shadow of What Was Lost on Engines of Empire

From an unmissable voice in epic fantasy comes the second novel in a trilogy where guilds clash, magic fuels machines, and an empire begins a revolution.

Torwyn burns as Sanctan Egelrath tightens his grip on power. The Draconate Ministry has gathered its forces, determined to eradicate the Guilds, but Rosomon Hawkspur still stands in their way.

Her only hope could lay with Lancelin Jagdor, sent to gather allies in their struggle against the usurper. Can even the greatest warrior in Torwyn hope to succeed with so many adversaries determined to stop him?

Tyreta returns home with newfound strength and mysterious sorcerous abilities, only to discover it is not the land she left behind. She will have to call upon her untested powers to survive when she embarks on a mission that could turn the tide of war.

Conall, trapped in a dangerous land, has his own enemies to defeat before he can hope to escape and join the conflict that threatens his family. Even if he succeeds, he must overcome the demons that threaten from within or face damnation.

Though Rosomon is vastly outnumbered, and her family lost, she is determined to strike back against her enemies. But saving her homeland might prove an impossible task.

“Epic fantasy fans listen up: This is the good stuff. Highly recommended.” —Kirkus (starred review) on Engines of Empire

Great story, great narration

Loved it, great continuation of the story, narration is some of the best I have heard on audible.

Great worldbuilding, good storytelling

This sequal is a good continuation to the first book, with great worldbuilding and fleshed out characters. However, its characters' progression and arcs are a bit frustrating. The heroes are thrown here from side to side without taking fate to their own hands. All their efforts are constantly ruined by suspiciously clever antagonists who are always one step ahead. It seems the characters are simply being carried away by events and by their enemies without coming out from the otherside better - they are simply carried over to a new events they have no control over. I found that quite annoying. Hopefully in the next book we can see some progress in their arc.

Splendid work

While not as rich and engaging as the first title, this book brought so much more of this fascinating world into view. A wonderful book.

This was great!

This was definitely a bit slow to start but it was still a great 2nd book o can’t wait for the next one I love this characters

Pretty good

Liked the fist book a lot, this one wasn’t at that level but still pretty good. The narration and production especially always hits the mark on this series!
