About this listen
An immersive and ambitious new series from the Aurealis Award-winning author of A Crucible of Souls.
A corrupted power stirs from beyond the grave.
A sacred order of knights sworn to protect the world from evil.
The Necromancer Queen will rise again.
Seventeen years have passed since the Necromancer Queen Talia was overthrown and slain, and her capital city destroyed by the Knights of the Order of Eternal Vigilance.
Anskar DeVantte, raised in the sacred disciplines of the Order, is now ready to face the brutal initiation trials to become a consecrated knight-sorcerer.
But the further Anskar rises in the ranks the more his faith wavers, and he is beset by harrowing dreams and uncertainty. As troubling powers awaken within him, a schism grows between Anskar and his hallowed Order, and he draws the hungry gaze of the vanquished queen’s fanatical followers.
As Anskar pieces together the mysteries of his early life, and begins to understand the malevolent forces gathering in his path, he finds himself with a crucial choice to make: Remain loyal to the Order’s righteous mission, or control the dark powers growing within him.
Either way, his destiny is steeped in war. The only question is, which side will he be on?

Ignoring a few flaws, this is a great start.
So I'm in two minds about this one... one one hand, it's a cool story, and keeps you going without being plodding or uninteresting. The problem is, it feels like it was written for, and maybe by a teenage boy. Women are sexualised and there are so many... let's call them intimate scenes, that seem to be used to show a connection between two characters, that could have been done in so many different ways. Good story, just too much innuendo, lusting, and double entendre.

Really great new series!
This was a fantastic new series by Mitchell Hogan. It's set in his previously established world of Wiraya, but it's not necessary to have read any of those, as they aren't referenced in this one.
This book follows a young man named And Kat, who is training to be part of an order of religious Knights.
I'm not sure how much more to say without spoilers, so I will just say, that the story really sucked me in. It also made me think, because some of the cultural genocide the Neyandrians face is happening in the real world in certain parts of Asia.
Anyway, the characters were well written and vivid. Several times I found myself thinking about the characters and their problems as if they were real. To me, that's the sign of an excellent book.
The narration was well done and fit the story well.
All in all, I really loved this book, and can't wait for the next one!
