About this listen

A city ruled with an iron fist. A swordsmith just trying to survive. A choice that could heal the world…or plunge it into ruin.

Llun the smith is an artist at heart, content to make the most beautiful swords, nails, and horseshoes in his city. But when his smithy is visited by the grand inquisitor of the secret police, his peaceful life is at an end.

He is offered a perfect job - to be the exclusive smith of the new order. Endless luxury, good food, and the freedom to create - it’s everything he ever wanted. But it comes with a price.

He has to make a seemingly insignificant object - a metal flask - as a gift to the new ruler of his city. Seized by a strange inspiration, he instead creates an object of great power that can heal thousands...or lead to a war that would never end.

The Curse of the Raven is a epic fantasy novella sequel to The Song of the Sirin. Early listeners have called it “The Lord of the Rings meets 1984”. If you enjoy creative twists on mythology and classic fantasy, you’ll love this edge-of-your seat adventure.

Nicholas is a brilliant author, and the series only gets better. His writing draws from the deep well of Russian fairy stories and Orthodox Christian tradition (though the latter is subtle and implicit). If you like the writings of Tolkien and Lewis and the like, then this is for you. The audiobook reading is decent, not amazing. It’s perfectly fine, though sometimes his voices are somewhat goofy. Nonetheless, Nicholas’ voice shines through in the telling of a great tale about beauty in the midst of darkness.

Amazing book, decent reading
