Publisher's summary

The King is dead. His heir too young to rule. Who will claim the crown?

The noble houses gather to choose a new Lord Protector, sparking old rivalries. If they can't agree, civil war looms. That is if foreign kingdoms don't smell blood in the water and invade first.

Lord Vale wants to take up the mantle, spurred by his ambitious brother Konstans.

Lord Isarn likewise seeks this power. He is aided–or thwarted–by the return of his brother, the knight and war hero Athelstan, whose squire, Brand, hopes to restore his family’s fortunes no matter the cost.

Through all of this, an enigmatic traveler makes plans with jarls, scribes, and priests for his own mysterious purpose.

Only one thing is for certain. War is inevitable.

Power-hungry lords scheme and warriors fight for glory in this epic fantasy tale from D.E. Olesen, which was one of the Top 10 highest rated Royal Road web-serials ever written.

Equal parts Game of Thrones and Vikings, the series digs deep into every level of a struggle of power, from lords to serfs. From political intrigue to the bonds between family. Join the fight for the soul of Adalmearc!

Waiting for next Chapter

The story was good, but I wish the character development was better. I really could care less if any of the main characters didn't make it. Hopefully will get better as the story continues.

Setting up a long series

This book took a very long time to become interesting. For those that have the fortitude to have made it through, the last hour or so had a nice payoff. The narrator did a nice job.
I did find it difficult to keep track of who was who in relation to the story. I will happily read or at least start book two but if it takes as long to buy in as was required in book one then It could be hard to stay invested.

Courtly intrigue

I liked this story, it took a little bit to get into since it thows you into the deep end of a kingdoms court but by the end I was very eager to find out what was going to happen to my favorite characters.

Too many names to keep up with

It was a good story after the first couple of chapters, with intriguing mysteries and some laughable moments. I would recommend to anyone who loves stories of Knight's, courts, and middle ages. I am very interested in the second book, to see how the ending plays out. It's not a big cliffhanger, but not a standalone, neither. This is indeed my honest review even though I was sent a copy to listen to for free. I was not required to give a review, but I actually did like the last 3/4 ths of the audible.

DNF'd I just couldn't deal with all the political machinations

DNF'd! So much political machinations, I just couldn't get around the political machinations. I kept wanting and waiting for something to happen anything to happen as hope springs eternal, but seriously nothing happened except more politing. Maybe I'll gird my loins and try again later I actually did continue to listen as the narrator was pretty good!! But after finishing a half dozen books or so and giving this another good chance and with only 5hrs left I decided that I've got better books to read right now.
