Publisher's summary

Not everyone has a destiny.

Separated and miserable, Thanquil Darkheart and Jezzet Vel’urn both have their reasons for wanting to leave the Dragon Empire. Jezzet flees from the wrathful fury of an Empress scorned while accompanied by the ever insidious Drake Morrass and Thanquil sets out to find and judge his one heretical loose end.

excellent story told by an epic narrator!

loved listening to it while I'm driving at night (some times 12 hours) makes it worth paying the money to listen to someone else speak when they tell you a story that keeps your attention from start to finish.

Series takes an abrupt NOSEDIVE...

Firstly, Dear Jaret Ross, the word "folk" is pronounced FOKE. The "L" is 100% silent. Not partially silent, not subtly included, SILENT. I almost had to stop listening to the book because I couldn't deal with the narrator repeatedly saying "some fulk do and some fulk don't. But the fulk around here are a different fulk. They listen to fulk music at fulk festivals while the local fulks are busy fulking off....." Of course, those sentences don't appear in the book. But they may as well. The author has a strange predeliction for overusing the word "folk." Which might be alright if the narrator would just PRONOUNCE IT CORRECTLY!!!

Now for the main reason for my negative review. Substantively, the plot lines of this series have been good enough so far. Not unique, but not totally rehashed vanilla fantasy either. I don't know what happened in this book. All of a sudden, around chapter 20, every character gets cerebral palsy and stops acting with any amount of common sense. I can usually just push through if a series of books is otherwise good and I've been invested in it. But this book got so absurd, so fast, that I turned it off at the end of chapter 22. And from chapter 19 through 22, I found myself yelling out loud at the stupidity of the characters and the plot. And to be clear, I don't talk to myself. That's how bad this book god. I started talking to myself...

Oh well, Mr. Hayes, please get it together before releasing book 4. I will probably give the series one more chance to redeem itself based on the first two books being relatively strong. Book 3, however, was a train wreck. Please don't try to feed us another steaming pile of $%?#$ in the future.

This was overall unsatisfying, also sppilers

How do you go through the entirety of a story just to have one of the main characters die with no resolution to their story arc. I started out likeing the story, It was dark and gritty,a little rapey. I didn't mind that. But like i said, the ending is just damned unsatisfying. If this is how this author writes his books,I think I'm done. there is no way this main character should have died. If anything, the other main character deserved his happily ever after,with the woman he loved. It's unfair to him. I understand deaths like this would probably happen in real life, but this is fantasy. Come on man.
