About this listen

Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Gold overlords demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his people. But Darrow is determined to fight back. Risking everything to transform himself and breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive the cutthroat rivalries that breed Society's mightiest warriors, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution that will tear the hierarchy apart from within.

Finally, the time has come.

But devotion to honor and hunger for vengeance run deep on both sides. Darrow and his comrades-in-arms face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy. Among them are some Darrow once considered friends. To win, Darrow will need to inspire those shackled in darkness to break their chains, unmake the world their cruel masters have built, and claim a destiny too long denied - and too glorious to surrender.

Worth all the hours

I enjoyed the trilogy. The second book though was a bit too "political" and slow... Took me a while and a few books of a completely different style to prepare for the third one.😁

Epic

Although it took a bit of patience to immerse myself in story, once in the groove, I found it moorish. Great battle descriptions and clever use of history entwined into characters.

definitely worth a listen

As in the title definitely worth listening too if you have gone this far. and the ending is * cheffs kiss.

how ever personally i will be leaving the series with this. i feel that as the rising has happened i dont know if i want to continue the series. i feel it has concluded for me.

there are a few story points i thought were not done right. e.g. the way they tried to convince us that a certain someone died feels very unsupported in thr story, such that I wasnt even suprised with what happens next.

Brilliant narration

The narration brings this story to life, I found myself listening with my jaw hanging in my lap a few times. Heartbreaking and exhilarating, I'm very happy I got back into this story after only listening to the first one years ago. The only downfall is that I find the story skips steps in darrows plans and you have to fill in the gaps with pure imagination.
