When Auraya was chosen to become a priestess, she could never have believed that a mere 10 years later she would be one of the White, the gods' most powerful servants. Sadly, Auraya has little time to adapt to the exceptional powers gifted her by the gods. Mysterious black-clad sorcerers from the south plague the land, and rumours reach the White of an army being raised. Auraya and her new colleagues work tirelessly to seal alliances and unite the northern continent under their banner, but time is running out.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

amazing
Trudi Canavan once again works her magic in the conclusion of this novel. the only downside i saw with it was everything that happens was to predictable. there was no surprise with her as you finish the trilogy.
her writing was excellent she knew how to keep you listening, and Richard Aspel did a fantastic job performing his reading. the talent was great and skills excellent
i love the whole world created but already we can tell there is another trilogy of another threat of magic yet to come. you know this in book two, yet there is no real hints of it found in this book, no regret no injury. everything just seemed to be book is done everything will be alright. no new challenges or adventures left to go on.

plot holes
**spoilers**
the fact that the Traitors failed to realize that they could just pose as slaves and use black magic to kill the black magicians in their homes without declaring all out, war seemed like a huge plot hole

Frustration about this book
So when I purchase on an audiobook fantasy I don’t want to hear a snail slow story crawling along at a snails pace with zero description zero passion and about as much excitement as agreeing old headmistress yelling at some English school children him the story was mediocre am I honestly couldn’t even get more than 10% through it it was forced even then I’m I wish I would’ve never bought it I have no idea top still there’s like this very vague idea of like the traders and this guy who basically just wants to kill him and this and this other guy who who’s getting tortured because he won’t give up information and it took so long to do it for me to understand that it was all dialogue there’s no description there’s no passion there’s no there’s enough bodies there’s no feeling there’s no eyes of people looking at each other there’s no love there’s no emotion is one of the most boring books I’ve ever read I’m very very very frustrated and I don’t understand I don’t I got I don’t get it

I was very impressed by not only the storyline completion for the series, but the narrators excellent performance. There were some issues with his reading in the "Magicians Guild", but those have disappeared completely and the execution of voices and dramatics were spot-on. Well done!

Trudi Canavan's, traitor spy series is a great series by author, but the narration leaves a listener wanting. His pauses are wrong, the story has no feelings to grasp. Very dissatisfied with this book.

Please continue this series!
What made the experience of listening to The Traitor Queen the most enjoyable?
Watching the characters develop over the six books in the two series was the most enjoyable. Each book had four separate stories intertwined which kept the listener involved and concerned about the characters
Who was your favorite character and why?
Sonea, the main character was my favourite as you'd expect, her sense of right, self doubt and belief in the Guild made her stand out above the rest. Despite her punishment for practicing black magic she held no malice towards the Guild and doesn't realise the respect she has from other magicians.
Have you listened to any of Richard Aspel’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Richard is the narrator for all six books in the two series and is very easy to listen too. It's surprising to have a man doing the voices for the main female character but he is so convincing and the voices he gives to each character add to their authenticity.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I have listened to many books, usually whilst travelling and not many have made me want to set off as soon as possible and put the audio book on..... I've even avoided taking phone calls whilst listening to the book.
Any additional comments?
What do I do now I have finished these books and there are no more with the same characters, I feel that they have become friends and I won't be seeing them again. I hope the author continues the series with the younger magicians that have been introduced.

Good but.....
This could have been so much better. Trudi Canavan is not a brilliant writer but she's not that bad either. This book was filled with missed opportunity. Many of the themes have been lifted from previous characters, and some of the story lines are incomplete. The ending was satisfactory but could have been better. Would I recommend this to others? Yes. But if you are looking for a thrilling ride you won't get it from this book.

Trudi Canavan
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would highly recommend this book to friends, because I just want to rave about this series of books.Would be nice to talk to others who had also read the book
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Traitor Queen?
The battle
What about Richard Aspel’s performance did you like?
Yes he was brilliant. Just a few moments when his performances changes.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
The book was far to long to listen in one sitting. I read this book at every spare moment.
Any additional comments?
With this book, I have read all of Trudi's Canavans books. It has left me wanting more and a feeling of lose.Hope she writes more soon

Fantastic end to the Trilogy!!
If you have not experienced trudi canavan before I would start with the Magician's Guild first as it it's the trilogy before this one. A combination of great plot twists, interesting characters and a beautifully sculpted magical world once you start listening you will not want to turn it off!

From start to finish this book is interesting and enjoyable, my only problem was in parts it felt a little rushed, the war was over in no time at all. But saying that I will listen to it again and feel it is a fitting end to the trilogy, I look forward to finding out what direction she takes her world next

Excellent!
Have read all of Trudi Canavan's books and as I couldn't carry this book around with me I listened to it. This is a great story and this book brings the trilogy to a neat conclusion. Can't wait for a new book and possibly a trilogy or more?

a fine finale
so i read the first two books of the trilogy and decided to listen to the last one. the audiobook was well read and the book itself was very good. the one downside was that the book skips between characters a lot and sometimes its hard to follow when listening.

Great Read
I thought the whole series was great, and I became quite addicted, and excited to start my book up every time.

Could have compressed into 1 book.
All of the POV characters had the same annoying habit of endlessly expressing their doubts and anxieties. There was no-one who expressed certainty and was definitive about anything. The characters were all just different expressions of the same doubt and anxiety-ridden one character.
Very annoying.
The narrator, Richard Aspel, is great. He uses different accents and timing to distinguish between the characters.

It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

He's insisting he's a Tide Lord and he's begging us to try again...to kill him, that is. When a routine hanging goes wrong, the survivor announces he is Cayal the immortal Prince, a Tide Lord. However, the only known record of the immortal beings of Amyrantha is the Tide Lord Tarot...and everyone knows it is only a parlour-game, an amusement. Arkady Desean, an expert on the legends of the Crasii - a part-animal, part-human race - is sent to interrogate Cayal.
