About this listen
The discovery of a strange and superior warship sends Dion, youngest son of the king of Xanthos, and Chloe, a Phalesian princess, on a journey across the sea, where they are confronted by a kingdom far more powerful than they could ever have imagined.
But they also find a place in turmoil, for the ruthless sun king, Solon, is dying. In order to gain entrance to heaven, Solon is building a tomb - a pyramid clad in gold - and has scoured his own empire for gold until there's no more to be found.
Now Solon's gaze turns to Chloe's homeland, Phalesia, and its famous sacred ark, made of solid gold. The legends say it must never be opened, but Solon has no fear of foreigners' legends or even their armies. And he isn't afraid of the eldren, an ancient race of shape-shifters, long ago driven into the Wilds.
For when he gets the gold, Solon knows he will live forever.

Brilliant Story & Well Executed!
As the story unfolds, the listening of it becomes more encapsulating! Great & unique characters, with a well thought out plot. James Maxwell is a brilliant author of fantasy. Up there with the best!
I'm such a lover of Simon Vance. His narration, performance and reading tempo is always spot on. Whether it's fantasy, sci fi, horror or prose he'll keep you listening for hours on end!
Highly recommend this book. Now onto book 2. Thanks to all that put this together! :))

Great Story but more grim than expected.
The story is engaging but the random gory scenes are a bit much for me, even if they are realistic..or unrealistic. I also found Simon Vance narration, althought voices were good, the intonation is weird and usually sounded monotonous, pausing in weird parts of sentances. Mostly the way he ends his sentances was quite irritating especially since they all ended with the same, slow tone intonation.. as if he was pensive and not endig a sentance. Wish it was read by someone else.
