Publisher's summary

The Thirteenth Paladin and his companions are finally reunited with each other and have found a worthy ally in the Eternal Empress—another Paladin who will take part in the war against the Adversary. But the effects of Ahren's journey through the empire have left their mark on him. And so, they all set off to Thousand Halls, the original home of the dwarfs, in the hope of finding the mysterious Father of the Mountain who will surely help Ahren in his recovery.

If all goes to plan, the nations of Jorath will at last unite and build an alliance against the ever-growing Pall Cloud. Yet Ahren and his companions have underestimated the enemy, for the Dark god has long since prepared a trap, which is only waiting to snap shut on the unsuspecting travelers . . .

More exciting adventures

Enjoyed both the characters and the writing as Ahren's adventures continue. The dwarvish culture was well developed and explored in this book.

Reading by Gildart Jackson is the absolute Best!!

Love all the 13th Palladin books. Gildart Jackson is the absolute best narrator! His voices are distinctive. They fit the characters I envision in my head as we read the story by Torsten Weitze. His readings are what bring this story to life! I can barely wait to get to the next book to hear him again. They're not the same without him.

Good but somewhat repetitive.

The story itself is quite good. It’s not one of those books that’s terribly complicated. Some plots were quite easy to figure out while others were somewhat harder. However the author is rather repetitive in som phrases and words. Overall a good book tho. Would definitely recommend.

Good listen

The story continues, and it is just as good as before. If you like the previous books, you’ll like this one. My only complaint is the fight scenes are a little tedious as it doesn’t ever feel like any of the characters are in any real danger (Plot armor.)
