Story
Simon has spent the last six months hunting Incarnations, and he has begun to realize that his power alone won’t be enough to stop a true enemy. To stand against the Incarnation of Elysia, he needs a deeper connection to the House of Blades. Leah is queen over a nation of refugees, driven from their homes by the fury of Territories gone mad. Alin rules his city with an iron fist, imposing the virtues of Elysia on an imperfect population. Now, the three must stand united as the balance of the world shifts once more. A greater threat looms, and it has made its presence known....

Story
Simon can only watch, helpless, as his family is killed and his friends captured by enemy Travelers - men and women who can summon mystical powers from otherworldly Territories. To top it off, another young man from Simon's village discovers that he's a savior prophesied to destroy evil and save the realm. Prophecy has nothing to say about Simon. He has no special powers, no magical weapons, and no guarantee that he'll survive. But he sets off anyway, alone, to gain the power he needs to oppose the Travelers.

In the years since Lindon left Sacred Valley, he has attained power beyond anything his family thought possible. Now he’ll have to put those powers to the test, because a Dreadgod is on its way. Lindon and his allies set out to evacuate the valley before the arrival of the Wandering Titan, but their sacred arts are weakened by an ancient curse. They’ll have to persuade the squabbling inhabitants of Sacred Valley to leave behind their home and set off into the outside world. But it has been a long time since Lindon left, and more has changed than he realized.

Joe takes his first step into exile, and is promptly unable to breathe. This new Zone has a higher concentration of power, magnitudes denser. His first task is to survive, but mere survival is the least of his concerns. The Zone he has landed on has been in a state of constant war for thousands of years, a tug of war between the Elven and Dwarven societies. Not choosing a side is the same as declaring both to be your personal enemy. Though he is resistant, Joe reluctantly decides to go with the group he thinks will help him grow the most.

Great story, the authors reading has improved
in the first story house of blades the authors reading was very fast. The pace has slowed down considerably and more personality has been given to each character.

I love Will's writing but....
He should hire a professional narrator for his studio books even at 2 bucks I think I'd rather just read the kindle version than listen to the lack of variety in his voices, and the rushed delivery of every line.

Will Wight Delivers again!
Would you consider the audio edition of The Crimson Vault to be better than the print version?
I'm dyslexic so i have trouble reading. That being said, the audio book is read by the author... so you will always get the proper tone and meaning with the words that are said.
What other book might you compare The Crimson Vault to and why?
Comparing it to the first book, it is even better. I gave the first book 5/5 because it was well earned. This book takes everything from the first one and expands on it. You don't just dive into a world and get a birds eye view, you get to stand in it with the characters and experience the chaos of a real world.
Have you listened to any of Will Wight’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes. It is wonderful to hear an author bring life to their own work in a way that only they can.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I did listen to all 10(or so) hours in a row. Three times. The story is so enjoyable it leaves you thirsting for more. Any time i had to pause it for a moment or so was agony.
Any additional comments?
Will has produced another wonderful story. I can't wait for the final book to come out and i hope it is soon!

READ this book, you'll enjoy it better
Ugh. It had been so long since I'd listened to the first book I'd forgotten about the narration, performed by the author. The storyline is worth a credit but the narration ruins it. I ended up reading the first book and will do same for this book. Long and short the narration is unbelievably bad, let me explain. The authors voice isn't bad but his intonation , you'd think he'd have a grasp on the tale he so creatively thought up...he doesn't.
Here is a good analogy; picture a teenage boy opening a Kermit sweater Christmas morning from sweet & senile grandparents. The teen responds, "wow grandma, I can't believe you remembered I love Kermit (followed by snicker)! That is how the ENTIRE book reads!! No matter if the character is watching parents be murdered or having a conversation with someone threatening to kill him/her. Regardless, the narrator happily and sarcastically reads each line of book with same wholly inappropriate "You killed my daughter!" Could easily be "meatloaf AGAIN mom?"
I'm not kidding, it throws off the world a listener is trying to be immersed in.
I will READ this authors books-he's a good writer but someone needs to tell him his narration is more suitable as a kindergarden teacher during story time (rainbows & sunshine) and horrible for his books.

One of my favorite series, getting even better!
This is book to in the Travelers Gate trilogy, and really is an excellent addition to the series. A lot of second of three books are just placeholders, but not this one. This very definitely move the story along and advances the character's growth.Simon and Leah both have great character growth, and there are some major changes for a lot of the other characters, too. There is also a lot of the backstory for the other Valinhall Travelers filled in in a series of flashbacks. The plotting is fast paced, the battles are extremely well done and action packed, and you can really sympathize with the characters. There is also a lot more magic used in this one, really showcasing a lot more of what each terrritory brings to the table as far as magic. I think this is a uniquee kind of series, playing against tropes, but if anything in style is close, it's Brandon Sanderson's work. Will Wight self narrated this, and he has gotten better over the course of the two books so far, really gaining in confidence as a narrator. I recommend this book and series to any fan of Brandon Sanderson, you wont be disappointed.

Boring
I just could not get into it. The opening scene sounded promising, but then it was a slow slog. I only made it through 4 chapters before deciding it just wasn't going to get better, and I was not willing to wait 15 hours to see if it did... :(
