Publisher's summary

In the fifth book of the multi-author Sundering series, New York Times best-selling author Troy Denning sends an embittered paladin, Kleef Kenric, on a quest to stop evil forces from taking advantage of the chaos rolling across the land of Faern and claiming dominion over the entirety of the Realms.

Stubbornly clinging to his family’s worship of a long-forgotten god, Kleef Kenric soon discovers that his god has blessed him with divine gifts, making him one of a new group of Chosen cropping up around the Realms. This divine gift makes him an excellent ally—and a target for those who wish corral his powers.

After battling his way out Marsember, a city besieged on all sides in the wake of the Sundering, he becomes swept up in the mission of a group of odd allies—a warrior noblewoman, an accomplished thief, and a mysterious short pudgy man exuding a faint odor of decay. With the forces of Shade tracking their every step, they travel to the Underdark to thwart the rise of the goddess of Death, but before long Kleef learns that his allies hide dangerous secrets—secrets that could destroy not only Kleef but the very fabric of the Forgotten Realms.

Solid narrator, enjoyable story

The story is a relatively brisk journey tale with enjoyable characters. Nothing too dramatically "deep", but a fun romp kept at a good pace.

The narrator's voice is easy to listen to, has enough differentiation in his affectations for main characters and manages to add some emotion to the quick dialogue.

Good stuff

Good story that doesn't go where I expected

What did you like best about this story?

It is a great cross section of my favorite setting and furthers the story of the Sundering in very meaningful ways.

Any additional comments?

There were some opportunities for better character development, but all in all a decent story. Probably even better on my second listen.

The story telling and writing were pretty solid..I didn’t mind the time spent listening but it was just missing something…I don’t know what but something.

Fantastic story, even greater performance.

As far as The Sundering series goes, The Sentinel is easily one of the best parts.

To top off the wonderful, riveting story, Marc Vietor's performance is arguably one of the best I've experienced in any audio book.

Good book, great narration!

This was another good book in the Sundering series. Good story, and characters. I've been a big fan of Mark Vietor narrations for awhile now, and that really made this book great for me.
