The weather magic that holds Lur safe is failing, and the earth feels broken to those with the power to see. Among Lur's sorcerers, only Asher has the skill to mend the antique weather map that governs the seasons, keeping the land from being crushed by natural forces. Yet, when Asher risks his life to meddle with these dangerous magics, the crisis is merely delayed, not averted.

In a family torn apart by poverty and violence, Hekat is no more than an unwanted mouth to feed, worth only a few coins from a passing slave trader. But Hekat was not born to be a slave. For her, a different path has been chosen. It is a path that will take her from stinking back alleys to the house of her God, from blood-drenched battlefields to the glittering palaces of Mijak. This is the story of Hekat, slave to no man.

"The Innocent Mage is come, and we stand at the beginning of the end of everything." Being a fisherman like his father isn't a bad life, but it's not the one that Asher wants. Despite his humble roots, Asher has grand dreams. And they call him to Dorana, home of princes, beggars, and the warrior mages who have protected the kingdom for generations. Little does Asher know, however, that his arrival in the city is being closely watched by members of the Circle, people dedicated to preserving an ancient magic.

Publisher's Summary

Every crown is tarnished by the blood of ambition. In a divided Kingdom, some will do anything to seize the crown. A bastard Lord, rising up against his tyrant cousin, sheds more blood than he bargained for. A royal child, believed dead, sets his eyes on regaining his father's stolen throne. A duke's widow, defending her daughter, defies the ambitious lord who'd control them both. And two brothers, divided by ambition, will learn the true meaning of treachery. All of this will come to pass, and nothing will remain as it once was. Royal houses will fall, empires will be reborn, and those who seek the Falcon Throne will pay for it in blood. With The Falcon Throne, a major new epic fantasy begins.

audio book equivalent to a page turner.

honor, betrayal, magic and lies. full of twists and unexpected turns. Gildart Jackson's narration was amazing.

this book was chosen based on the length of the story (I was going to be off line for a while) and the sample I listened to before hand. character voices were spot on.

Entertaining, but...

A good enough yarn, but I felt it let down by the extremely repetitive use of basically one term of disparagement and the other used throughout instead of "Silence". Otherwise a good story, well-performed.

Gildart desorved better

I'm sry if my English is unreadable.

so yeah this narroator is a master at his craft hand Down,

but the story was somewhat like the author had just finished a book and thought "hey í can do this" the characters are desent. but there is no mystery

having said that in the end it comes somewhat together, but holy &$^#^& it is a long /@^#& book. and I mean that in a bad way, I was really struggling to finished it

if I had no other book that I wanted to listen too, I'd maybe buy the next one, but that's just because this narroator is crazy good
