About this listen

A desert of living death.

Four centuries ago, the Stewards rained ash on the heartland of an empire for a year and a day, murdering the Elentian Empire and orphaning the Hasran Imperium where I was born.

The stories say the ash drains magic and that any who venture into the Ashlands will need to contend with the armies of unliving swimming beneath the ash—unliving as old as the Mad Imperator Jhordil himself.

My final tomb lies somewhere out in that terrible ocean of soot. Before I can help Li or settle the Hasran civil war, I need to find it. I need to understand who and what I am if I am ever to fight my aunt or the demon princes she no doubt controls.

I will sail into those uncharted lands, and I will prevail. I have to. The cycle depends on it.

Good story with a few errors

While the story is great and normally would hate a soft MC who keeps letting enemies live. The balance of the ruthless Saghir makes it bearable.

However there are a lot of errors, like ponya being enyas grandmother being a surprise. It's been mention like 4 times in pervious books. By Enya in book one when she mentions a grandmother in the dims named ponya and then by the MC in another book and even by Ponya herself in the last book.

Then their are the interludes. I tend to skip all them to only see the MC perspective. Which leads to showing the MC knowing things he shouldnt. Like that his sister has a demon prince bonded to her. He mentions fearing fighting her as one but no one has told him she is one. No scry message, no demons , nothing. He should not know that.

Then the MCs actions all seem odd, he goes places to help then runs off with side characters when he gets there but has no reason to run or change his plans. I'm sure there are reasons in the interlude for the others but HE doesnt know it. So it makes his actions all odd.


Author really needs to focus on what the MC should know and write him as if the interludes dont exist.
