Waiting in Hest for Eadmund, Evaine is oblivious to everyone’s worry over Morana, who is showing little sign of recovery. Jaeger is panicking, knowing that without someone to read the Book of Darkness, they are defenseless, vulnerable to an attack from Draguta, should she return.

The Raven’s Warning

Well done. Enjoyed the development of a very convoluted story line, societies and personalities. Good series. Hope “Vale of the Gods” ties it up the loose ends.

Pause Please

Wonderful story, yet I wish that the reader had paused between the different storylines! Sad because I have not heard Finty Williams do that before!!

Loving this saga!

I found this series seeking more books with Finty Williams as the narrator and have become invested in this story!! The spins and turns of this battle between good and evil is enthralling, never predictive.

Withholding final judgement…

I won’t say with full confidence until I finish the last book, but my gut right now says this book should have been the last.

I love this series overall and was initially really enjoying the angst and anxiety of Eadmond and Jael’s situation, but at this point it’s become a bit annoying with how long it’s dragged on. This book had some good nuggets, but didn’t do enough to impact the plot or move things forward for the length of the books.

As with the others, performance was phenomenal!

Streeeesssssss Enducing

Good lawd, this story is gonna put me in the ICU. It's thrilling, heartbreaking, full of angst, and so stressful, but so very good!
Again, Finty does a great job, but I would like to hear more definitive voice inflection at the end of a scene for a smoother transition. Some of her voices for tertiary characters are unisex in tone, making it hard to determine who's voice is in the scene.
Other than that, I love this story!
(On my 2nd relisten) Book 5 is ripping my heart out, my eyes are welling up just typing this. Even on my second listen when I know what's going to happen, doesn't damper the visceral dagger shredding that vital organ.

meh, I should have stopped at book one

It just goes on and on... there's no mystery a lot of by the way these two have a past and though it's never mentioned now they're a thing; relationships aren't built... and Jael's love interest is just straight boring.

It just drags on and on.

I initially really enjoyed this series. I find myself now only finishing it because of wanting to see if Eadmund ever gets saved. The plot doesn't seem to grow any from book 4. Draguta sends more monsters, Edela and Eydis use the book to stop them with a lot of mishaps along the way.
