The Emperor's Sword

Another Kingdom, Book 3

De: Andrew Klavan

Narrado por: Michael Knowles

"The Emperor's Sword is a wildly entertaining adventure of overlapping worlds and titanic clashes between fundamentals of good and evil. Klavan's world-building is both amazing and all too plausible." - Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author of Paranoia and House on Fire

"Part swashbuckler, part fantasy, part Romance (in the old sense), part comedy, and part acidulous commentary on The Way We Live Now, The Emperor’s Sword brings Andrew Klavan’s trilogy to a resounding conclusion. I guarantee this: you won’t be bored." - John Wilson, aka “The Man Who Reads Books”

Having survived the Nightmare Feast, Austin Lively is living the dream. He has returned to Hollywood and his movie career is in full swing. His new script, Another Kingdom, has been unexpectedly purchased by a top producer at an enormous price. Beautiful women flock to his bed, movie stars court his attention, and the powers-that-be are predicting stardom. His only problems: a recurring vision of a magical landscape he can’t quite remember, and a giant mouse who seems to be following him - a giant mouse with a woman’s face. After his beloved Jane Janeway is accused of murder, Austin begins to realize that this dream he’s living is a nightmare in disguise. He is caught in the coils of a terrible magic, and the only way he can save his soul is to give up his success, re-enter the Eleven Lands, and find the Emperor Anastasius so he can restore Queen Elinda to her throne. But when he arrives at the emperor’s encampment, he is shocked to find Anastasius dead. With a weird hitman on his trail in Los Angeles, he must break Jane out of prison before a murder plot takes her life. In the Eleven Lands, he must follow the Emperor into hell itself where he will face the most shocking revelation of all.

Beautiful Story

The meaning of this series will sit with me for a very long time. As a Christian this might mean more to me then most but it shows in a understandable way the two realms that connect our world and the spirit and does so beautifully! It also is an encouraging story of how the battle is already won! All we must do is Let Wisdom Reign and Each Man Go His Way!!

Love it!

This was such a fun trilogy. Creative and exciting - the adventure of a litrpg without the annoying stats. The narration was perfect!

wow! just wow

what a great story and a great trilogy. and Michael Knowles is an amazing narrator. I was sad when this story was over, and I actually miss maude.

definitely going to be reading more klavan books

Amazing finish!

A wonderful conclusion to the trilogy. The biblical allegory of new creation and the death to the self is wonderfully and terrifyingly written in a way that swells the emotions of those who have felt the despair and joy. This is great for the modern reader craving something similar to CS Lewis’ “That Hideous Strength”. The social commentary is palpable. It’s wild to think of a spiritual battle as a social commentary. The connections drawn are done well with dialogue and character development.

Excellently performed, captivating, incredibly original

Beautiful, compelling, very original take on fantasy. Klavan is a excellent writer and Knowles is a surprisingly dynamic narrator.

Grand Finale

Each book in the series was better than the last. This was a great ending.

An Excellent Morality Story

An enthralling story that helps guide the hero in all of us. Our lives are filled with seemingly insurmountable and sometimes horrible obstacles. A thinly veiled Christian allegory that is both entertaining and inspiring. Serving good is very difficult. Serving evil is easy.

So good!

This whole series draws you in and makes you want to find more opportunities to listen.

It was sequel quality, but still good.

sequel quality, but still good. they had to wrap it up in one book. I would have preferred more books than rushing to end the story.

absolutely amazing series!

This series is by far my favorite from the Klavan! The daily wire needs to make this movie series!!
