About this listen

Mankind has ceded the night to the corelings, demons that rise up out of the ground each day at dusk, killing and destroying at will until dawn, when the sun banishes them back to the Core. As darkness falls, the world’s few surviving humans hide behind magical wards, praying the magic can see them through another night. As years pass, the distances between each tiny village seem longer and longer. It seems nothing can harm the corelings, or bring humanity back together.

Born into these isolated hamlets are three children. A Messenger teaches young Arlen that fear, more than the demons, has crippled humanity. Leesha finds her perfect life destroyed by a simple lie and is reduced to gathering herbs for an old woman more fearsome than the demons at night. And Rojer’s life is changed forever when a traveling minstrel comes to his town and plays his fiddle.

But these three children all have something in common. They are all stubborn and know that there is more to the world than what they’ve been told, if only they can risk leaving their safe wards to find it.

Narrated by: Christopher Graybill, Colleen Delany, Delores King Williams, Elizabeth Jernigan, Eric Messner, James Lewis, Joe Brack, Joseph Thornhill, Ken Jackson, Michael Glenn, Michael John Casey, Mort Shelby, Nick DePinto, Richard Rohan, Steven Carpenter, Terence Aselford, Thomas Penny

well written, some of the best character development ever written. The writer takes a few to adjust to, but this is one of the greatest books of highs and lows ever. The author never comes near this again.

Brilliant

The story is original and promises to be a great series. The voicing was tough at times (young arlen especially) and a bit much with the background noise at times. First time with a Dramatized version

Cool concept well developed The

Very good story, and I remember reading it in the days of yor. First half was very well performed, and it is my first dramatized adaptation experience. Second half felt, fast, I suppose. The narrator sounded a little but “faster” than in the first half, but once you get used to it, it isn’t such a problem.
All in all, had me captivated all day. (I listened to the whole thing within 24 hours)

Had to get used to the second half
