Even though this is so short, it packs so much into it. Otec is such a quiet boy and I loved seeing him go from the quiet, insecure boy, into the clan chief we know him to be. It was nice to see Ilyennas parents and who they were before she came along. Ilyenna is more like her mother than I thought!
This was an intense, action packed, and fast paced read and a great addition to this series. This series is one of my favourites and I urge everyone to give it a go.
Melissa Reizian Frank was amazing. She has such a distinctive voice and has a lot of different tones and voices, that it brought the story to life. I really enjoyed her narration.
*I received a copy of this for review. This in no way affected my thoughts.*
Short but fulfilling.

There's a couple in danger, fighting warring clans but it's hard to fear for them because she reads the scenes between the couple with about as much passion as you'd expect from someone reading from the phone book. Yes, she's using different voices for the characters but there's little to no passion in her performance. Or, maybe I've just been spoiled by narrators that go above and beyond in their performances and they were the exception to the rule and this is the norm. If so, I want the exception all the time!

Otec meets Matka early in the story. He's a clanchief's son, but overshadowed by his older brothers. She's a foreigner, from a race that he doesn't trust due to raiding and slavery. In spite of these major differences, Otec and Matka quickly develop feelings for one another. The arc of their relationship moves along beautifully, as they race against their enemies, in an attempt to save as many clanswomen as possible from the fate of slavery.
They keep running up against new opposition, each thing more difficult than the last, finally culminating in a very intense fight, and also true and sweet declarations of love between Otec and Matka.
One thing I've always loved about Argyle's writing is that there doesn't always have to be a clear winner or loser. Nobody leaves battle like that unscathed, and she doesn't tie it up in a neat bow just to give us a happy ending. It's always satisfying, but also unflinchingly realistic.
Another favorite book by one of my all time favorite writers. Bravo.
This audio book was gifted to me in exchange for my honest review, which I have given.
Addicting read.
