About this listen

When darkness falls, a new guardian emerges.

Kateřina Dubová has always aspired to walk in her father's footsteps as a respected journalist, and the Second World War presents a unique opportunity for her to prove her worth to the world. A tip about an assassination attempt on a high-ranking Nazi official, Reinhard Heydrich, the "Butcher of Prague" leads Kateřina into the shadows of the Nazi occupation. Soon she discovers things are not as they seem.

As intrigue unfurls, Kateřina joins forces with Josef Loew, a descendant of the famous Rabbi Loew, renowned for creating a mystical guardian in the form of a golem to protect the souls of 16th-century Jews in Prague. In the chaos of war, some believe a new golem can once again bring help to those in need.

Like flickering candles in the abyss, Kateřina and Josef work to protect the innocent and end the evil that plagues their world. Yet, in their quest to save the Jewish people, have they inadvertently created a new danger? Could the very entity they had forged to protect become their greatest enemy?

I enjoyed the golem legend and the mysteries surrounding it: the original rabbi, the river clay, the parchment that brought it to life and the supernatural gentleness it possessed with Katerina.
The beginning moved a bit slowly for me, but I really enjoyed Josef and Katerina together and the juxtaposition of life and death - protection and sacrifice - killing and murder. If you like unique perspectives on world events, you’ll enjoy this story.

I liked the characters which grew throughout this coming of age story. I liked how the supernatural elements were infused with the mechanical contraptions. The story’s tension ends, but listeners know there is still a lot more to the story.

I don’t know much about WWII Czechoslovakia so I can’t comment on the history involved. The story itself is a reimagining while still showing the horrific reality of that war.

The reader is excellent.

I liked it and would recommend for fantasy fans 13 & up.
