Eye of Truth

Agents of the Crown, Book 1

De: Lindsay Buroker

Narrado por: Vivienne Leheny

After 10 years at war, Jev Dharrow looks forward to hanging up his sword, relaxing with a cool mug of ale, and forgetting that the love of his life married another man while he was gone. But when his ship sails into port, a beautiful woman wearing the garb of an inquisitor from one of the religious orders waits to arrest him.

His crime? He’s accused of stealing an ancient artifact with the power to start another war. Jev would gladly hand over the artifact to stop more suffering, but he has no idea where it is or even what it looks like. The inquisitor woman definitely has the wrong person.

Inquisitor Zenia Cham grew up with nothing, but she has distinguished herself as one of the most capable law enforcers in the city, and she’s next in line to become archmage of the temple. All she has to do is find the Eye of Truth, and her superiors are certain Jev has it.

He tries to charm her with his twinkling eyes and easy smile, but she’s not letting any man get between her and her dreams. Especially not a thief.

If Jev can’t convince Zenia they’re on the same side, find the artifact, and clear his name, his homecoming will turn into a jail sentence. Or worse.

Less than 10-Hour Rule

Since there are so many books available on Audible, I've put a 10-hour rule on all my purchases. Except for this author. I've enjoyed so many of her stories and have purchased two or three books with just one credit that I cannot hold her to this rule. Again, she has sucked me in with a good story and I always enjoy Vivenne Leheny's narrations. Since I've used my two credits for this month on the first two books, I'll probably end up buying three more credits to complete the series before the end of the month. Yeah, I'm a fanboy. I'm good with that. Enjoy!

No spoilers

I find with Burokers series that the first books are just ok but dose spark you into getting the next book in the series. That's when the adventure starts each book gets better and better. Very well written books with action, adventure, suspense, humour, romance. They literally have it all and blended extra well. I have found it very hard for me to decide which series to try next. Buroker is one of the few author that writes consistently very well everything I've listened to has been EXCELLENT. The narration was perfect very well preformed will listen to Leheny without any reservations so all.

A great start to a new series

I received the audiobook for free as a Patreon supporter, but I would have purchased it if it wasn't a reward and my reviews are always honest. I also read the first 10 chapters on Lindsay's blog, but I think the audiobook brings the characters to life and I'd highly recommend "reading" it that way.

The book started slowly for me and that's the reason for 4 stars rather than more. At first, I did not like the female lead, Zenia. Once Lindsay hit her stride though, I fell in love with the two main characters and the story. I'm very excited for the next book which will be out soon.

Definitely an Author I'll be adding to my library

This had been a truly great book to listen to. The story had been compelling and the characters had been likeable and felt flawless within the world. I will have to be sure to add more books by this author and look for others with the same Narrator. The narrator had been phenomenal.

one of my favorite authors

I've been reading and listening to her books since she first came out with The Emperor's Edge series. I loved those books. I've loved almost every book this author has put out and this Title was no different.

Not only did I love the story but I also love the maturity of Lindsay's voice as an author. Although EE is my first love, I think this series has a great shot at taking the number 1 spot on my book list for this author. I can't wait to read/listen to more.

love this beginning to series

this is the 3rd series I'm reading from this author. it started slow, but then I got hooked around chapter 3. I didn't want to stop listening..

Very good read

This is a 3rd Ceres of book that I have listened to And I love these books very much along with the other books that I have listened to fantastic author

Eye of truth

I could not stop listening.a great story with great turns of events and a nice romantic plot.

Great start

This a great start to a new series for me. I have been a fan of Lindsay Buroker for some time and finally got around to Agents of the Crown series, I am sorry I waited so long. It may have started a little slow for some readers, but picks up steam rather quickly. I really started to get to know the main characters and some of their “issues”, which I suspect will be very important in the coming books. Vivienne Leheny is one of my favorite female narrators and she doers a great job with this book. No one can do a dwarf voice and keep it consistent like Ms. Leheny. On to book 2.

loved it

Lindsay Buroker writes the most likable characters. This book reminded me of the Dragon Age video game series in the best way, with elements of steampunk. I like how lighthearted it was but hope the next one includes some grit. Overall really amazing.
