About this listen
The Witcher meets D&D in the first book of this epic fantasy adventure where a warrior priest must suddenly protect his world from monsters that were once only legend from USA Today best-selling author David Dalglish.
Devin Eveson is a Soulkeeper, traveling through remote villages as a preacher and healer. But when a mysterious black water washes over the world, the veil is torn, flooding the land with ancient magic and forgotten races: fire that dances as if alive, corpses that walk, and creatures that can manipulate time itself. And not all the creatures that have reawakened remember humanity fondly.
As the land grows more dangerous and more chaotic, Soulkeepers are turning up dead, their bodies transformed into macabre works of art. Devin must set aside his words of peace and accept his new role: slayer of monsters and protector of the human race.

They need a hero to strike fear into the hearts of the imperial and to inspire and unite the people. They need someone to take up the skull mask and swords and to become the legendary "Vagrant"—an unparalleled hero and assassin of otherworldly skill.

After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio. Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains. A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame, and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people. All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos.

Marcus' hero days are behind him. He knows too well that even the smallest war still means somebody's death. When his men are impressed into a doomed army, staying out of a battle he wants no part of requires some unorthodox steps. Cithrin is an orphan, ward of a banking house. Her job is to smuggle a nation's wealth across a war zone, hiding the gold from both sides. She knows the secret life of commerce like a second language, but the strategies of trade will not defend her from swords. Geder, sole scion of a noble house, has more interest in philosophy than in swordplay.

Story
Everyone dreams of marrying a prince - except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms. I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul. For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist.

Great Story that treats the main character poorly
This book started out great and hooked me right away. Excellent world building, vivid environments and interesting characters. The main character has a lot of depth and promise. As the story moves along everything and everyone around the main character moves forward, while the main character (mc) at best stalls and in some circumstances he regresses. Maybe the author is setting the MC up for some leveling up and character growth in future books, but right now he is wasted.
The other POV and supporting characters are rich and show growth throughout the book. The book starts with a bang and ends meekly without much resolution. I had trouble getting through the last hour or so.

Repetitive plotlines became monotonous
David Dalglish writing style was good but his tendency to burden the story with redundant passages needlessly slowed the pace of the story to ill effect.
What follows are light spoilers.
The story starts out in a highly religious, bordering on fanatical, mundane society revolved around 3 deities (sisters) that seem to be a mashup between christian Holy Trinity and Roman-Greco mythology Fates in that they are revered as the creators of life along with controlling the human souls. There is a 2nd pantheon of gods who control the arcane magical abilities and entities who resurface after being cast down millennia ago by the three sisters. What follows is a bloody conflict of the arcane demigods to reassert their influence in the otherwise pious mundane world.
Regrettably, the reasons given for the arcane banishment is only vaguely touched on and the arcane demigods method for forcing it back into human society seems overly brutal and, frankly, a bit nonsensical.
Nicholas Tecosky narrating performance was very good.

A great, unique fantasy
This is a great book for someone who loves a unique world. I've read one other series by him, this one has a much more gruesome turn, but is just as amazing. Dalglish thinks of really unique characters, creatures, and worlds. Definitely would recommend for someone who doesn't mind gore and wants something outside of the usual fantasy tropes.

a freight train
this book starts very slow, it takes a long while to flesh itself out before getting into the substance. However, like a freight train, its speed pucks up substantially the longer it goes. by about the half way point i already knew i was in it for the whole trilogy. by the end i am excited to see more. it somehow feels like a book version of an anime or a video game, in all the best ways. the characters are fun and you feel for them, the story is original and familure at the same time, and the narrator is amazing, foing a very good job with voices. could not be happier i found this series. one of the best blind recommendations from audible ive had yet.

Took a little bit to get into but really like it
Little bit of a slow start with not much back story or character depth but once other characters started showing up, it really took off. Definitely worth listening to.

Violent, Bloody, and Magical
A very interesting take on magic, dragons, the fey, and much more. This first book weaves character development with some very bloody a graphic battles.
This is not simply a linear piece and has several different plots and characters. If you do not pay attention you will have backtrack.
Narrator is decent as well.
Overall a decent pick and leaves you wanting to listen to the next book.
