About this listen

As the reinforced Cethosian war machine marches north to face the Ri'Tek army at the Black Kasym, Kael and those at his side race to repair the remaining wellsprings.

After a disastrous arrival in the Ri'Tek home kingdom, Kael manages to track down one of Talohna's most reclusive factions, only to realize what is truly at stake should the Cethosian alliance and the Ri'Tek meet at the Black Kasym.

With this new knowledge in hand, Kael and his companions race to stop a war nearly seven years in the making—a war that could destroy all of Talohna. Unlike his quick thinking in Dasal so many years ago, convincing the Vikress to stand down from her plans to subjugate the Lesser races will take every bit of cunning and luck he possesses. Neither of which will help him avoid Niis' wrath should he succeed.

Great continuation

I really enjoyed Mr. Franx newest entry into the series. It gave me the the emotional Rollercoaster the first book Gave me. If you liked his other books this is a no brainer.

Brought me back that feeling

I felt like some of the books didn't have the same feeling they had at the beginning and this one brought it back. I am very much looking forward to the next book and I can't wait. I think this may be top two in the series

Looking forward to the conclusion

I’ve been enjoying this saga over the past few years as they are produced, but I can honestly say that I’m ready for it to end. Not that the story is necessarily bad…Simon Vance always does an incredible job with narration. It’s just simply that the story has become a little tired. this happens often in high fantasy and I encourage the author to continue writing at least one or two more and make the conclusion pay off. But at this point, I don’t know how much further the story can go or maintain interest without going off the rails. I sent the author is attached to the characters the same way that many listeners would be in the wholesale slaughter of lovable characters would definitely destroy the rapport. The listeners have built with the story so I hope he doesn’t go full on Game of Thrones. On the other hand, I would really like to see what happens to some of these characters but I really don’t wanna wait years to find out,

Amazing Journey.

I liked the plot twists, and looking forward to the next book. I hope the narrating voice actor stays on to the series completion. He is wonderful. I look forward to continuing the Journey Kal, Ember, and their companions.

So Much Going On

My spouse introduced me to the Darkness Within Saga when it began and we have been hooked ever since. There is a lot going on in all of the books, but they're all woven together so intricately in a way so that the reader(or listener) can keep up with each character and event. Characters are written and described in a way that they are not forgotten. The narrator did a superb job with character voices and their voice is just nice to listen to any way.
