Stripped of his power, and branded a renegade by his Order, Darius seeks a way to prove his god is not the bloodthirsty deity his fellows have created. Meanwhile Jerico takes refuge with a band of rebels as Dark Paladins scour Dezrel seeking to claim his life, and the lives of all who would help him. As the silent war rages, their faith is tested, and one will succumb to the promises of a prophet who has lived for centuries.

Their prophet dead and their home lost, the half-bloods Harruq and Qurrah Tun form a strained alliance with a band of mercenaries outside the city of Veldaren. As the brothers and their allies wage a private war against powerful thief guilds, forces greater than them all threaten to tear them apart and ruin any hope for a better life. Harruq must defend his family at all costs, for Qurrah's love of a girl with a shattered mind and the power of a goddess may doom them all.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 90
Five hundred years ago, brother gods devastated their world with civil war. When they were imprisoned, their conflict ended without a victor. Centuries passed while their followers secretly continued the war, a war that will soon have an end. The gods have found their paragons. When half-bloods Harruq and Qurrah Tun pledged their lives to the death prophet Velixar, they sought only escape from their squalid beginnings. Instead they become his greatest disciples, charged with leading his army of undead.

Publisher's Summary
"Imagine knowing something, knowing it so well that it's burned deep into your gut. You'd question your own name before you questioned this. And then...one day...the whole world changes, and you know nothing."
Having fled the defeat at the Green Gulch, Darius and Jerico, believing themselves the last two paladins of their kind, must separate once more in order to survive. While Jerico rushes to the aid of Lord Arthur and the siege at his Castle of Caves, Darius travels east, determined to remove the bounty on his head. But on his way, he encounters a young priest following an older way of faith, whose desire for their return will risk destruction upon all the North. Sacrifice must be made in blood.

Dalglish is a must for fantasy lovers
Dalglish reminds me very much of the Dragonlance novels I grew up addicted to. I live his half orc series and this paladin series is just as good. I highly recommend getting the 1st and 2nd before reading/listening to the this, the third installment. It can be read/listened to as is but there is sooooo much back story, character development, references to things that happened in the other books that many nuances would be lost. This is the third story of the last two paladins of a good and just god fighting against the forces of evil. One who has always been for the god of good the other a fallen paladin of the opposing order now on the side of right. Here they will face an enemy from their past, crisis of faith and the embodiment of the dark god himself. Well written and well narrated. Can’t recommend it enough. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Awesome story, not a fan of the narrator.
I'm really tired if changing narrators for Dalglish's stories. I love his work but it is so distracting to hear several different pronunciations of names of people, gods, and cities. In a perfect world we would have all of his stories narrated by the same person who did his shadow dance series. I also don't think the narrator changed his character voices enough. The two main characters sounded exactly the same. That being said, I can't wait for the next book because I honestly love every book David Dalglish has written! I recommend ALL of his books!
