The Call of the Void

Shadows and Crowns Series, Book 3

De: S.M. Gaither

Narrado por: Jesse Vilinsky

War is building. Blood is spilling. And the gods are not pleased.

Casia has survived her brother's attempts to crush her and her growing army, but the battle for their empire is just beginning. Bitter and wounded, carrying the curse of a dark and dangerous upper-god, and desperate for more allies, she charges northward to seek the elves who once walked alongside the divine beings.

The elven Court of Moreth holds knowledge. Secrets. And power. The kind of power that could shift all of Casia's wars in her favor. If she can survive the dangerous politics and treacherous magic of the elf-kind.

While these outer battles rage, so too do the ones within. Elander is losing what remained of his divinity. His court. His powers. His grasp on what he once was and what he once knew. But he's determined to keep fighting, gathering his own ancient allies, and working to aid Casia in her wars. He lost her once. He won't do it again.

But his devotion to her may be the very thing that destroys him.

And when that destruction comes, it comes with a twist—one that could change their entire world.

Forever.

"Precisely"

The only thing that consistently bothered me was the overuse of the word, "precisely." It started with Elander, but then every character started using it, and it got annoying real fast.

Good listen

Good story line, tends to have some slow spots but keeps you engaged. I recommend.

might be better than acotar seriously

I am on book 3 in as many days I cant put it down she writes so well absolutely in love.. not sure why this series isn't at the top of everyone's TBR

Amazing narration

Enjoyed the story, it had progression and the usual plot twists. Some expected, some not. But the narration is superior; each character has a unique sound and lilt. Makes listening enjoyable even times when the story dragged a bit.

Obsessed!!

Love how unpredictable and deep this story is!!! Love the characters and the world. Cannot get enough! Thank goodness it's more than a duo/trilogy!!

Good, not WOW

It was good. If you’ve been reading the series I recommend this. Nothing fabulous stood out imo. It’s a setup book for what’s to come. Obviously they had to add in some things to keep your attention. All I’m trying to say is if you only kept the interesting stuff, only the last quarter or so is necessary lol

Can’t stop…. Won’t stop…

I have been mercilessly dragged into this world, and I don’t want to leave! I love the way this author has created this world and the characters have so much depth. It has spice, it has humor, it has sorrow… it has it all. The narrator has become one of my favorites. Every character has their own voice and I can tell them apart so clearly! How does she even keep up with all the different voices? I do wish some of the fight scenes were a bit more detailed to make them feel more realistic, but this is about my only criticism. Next book starting… now!

I love the story line

Please tell me we get to see a Sade and Zander get a book:) there is a vibe!

Amazing narrator for this epic story

Jesse Villinsky could read the back of a shampoo bottle in an Irish accent and I would still hang on every word.

And honestly this series isn’t talked about enough. I love it.

Enjoyable read with Interesting magical landscape

I enjoy the series. It has great character building and a fun take on “the gods “and human interaction. The story moves along at a good pace with a captivating romance.
