Publisher's summary

Winner of the 2016 Independent Author Book of the Year Award for Outstanding Fantasy

Semi-Finalist in the 2017 Kindle Book Awards

It is said that the past always returns to haunt you, yet some forgotten pasts have whispered names and a debt for collection.

Dangerous curiosities stir a hidden darkness, one that patiently waits to seize control. The subtle periphery between dream and reality is in peril, and those chosen must face the evil behind this looming disaster.

But lurking in the shadows, guiding their hand, lies the true threat - and a hidden agenda. Can they discover the truth in time, or will would-be-heroes become nothing more than pawns of evil?

An incomprehensible audiobook

No reviews for this long book, so I thought I'd try it out.
Unfortunately... the characters all seem very similar. With each one, the point of view switches, and then the character has a long, long, long introspection on their feelings. Their locations frequently change suddenly, but so much of the narration is devoted to introspection and expressions of fear that there's no solid sense for where they are or what is happening. Gods and Magic explain much, one character feels very bad about draining life from others, an untrustworthy character endlessly offers to help her.
I gave the book 21 hours of my attention, hoping that things might sort out or get better. Or at least just get traction with one character or one location anywhere. But it's all so ethereal. I'm guessing the book is necessary to make notes and keep track of things.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
