About this listen
The hounds at our heels will soon know we are lions. Tamas's invasion of Kez ends in disaster when a Kez counter-offensive leaves him cut off behind enemy lines with only a fraction of his army, no supplies and no hope of reinforcements. Drastically outnumbered and pursued by the enemy's best, he must lead his men on a reckless march through northern Kez to safety, and back over the mountains so that he can defend his country from an angry god.
In Adro, Inspector Adamat only wants to rescue his wife. To do so he must track down and confront the evil Lord Vetas. He has questions for Vetas concerning his enigmatic master, but the answers might come too quickly. With Tamas and his powder cabal presumed dead, Taniel Two-shot finds himself alongside the god Mihali as the last line of defence against Kresimir's advancing army.
Tamas's generals bicker among themselves, the brigades lose ground every day beneath the Kez onslaught and Kresimir wants the head of the man who shot him in the eye.

An excellent follow up to promise of blood
This is an excellent follow up to promise of blood and manages to deftly avoid middle book syndrome. Whilst some aspects of the book feel less polished than others, I am willing to safely attribute that to how well done the other parts are.

Looking for more!
Thoroughly enjoyed book 2 of The Powder Mage trilogy. An intriguing story beautifully narrated. Hoping book 3 comes soon. I highly recommend this series.

Lots of fighting and some ingenious strategy
Tamus was a master strategist. His experience on the war front, was evident and because he always won- despite the carnage and losses, his men were willing to follow him.
While he was working his way home, the intrigues continued.
Taniel, being the only Powder Mage left in Adopest, was victimised and ostracised.
The Generals, thinking that Tamus and his men dead, were vying for power.
Hidden agendas and corruption abound, and more gods descend to cause more problems.

Great book!
I enjoyed this book a lot.
Fast moving pace, the return of favorite characters and schemes and plots. My favorite charcter is Ka-pol with her sorcery. I'd love a book about her.
Keen for book 3.
Once again Christian Rodska is fantastic with his narration.

Great sequel
Great follow up, and such a great universe to get immersed into. Characters are awesome and lore is epic.
Narrated brilliantly, voices and characters he changes between are do smooth.

Amazing booked!!
Much a brilliant piece of storytelling, the way he goes back and forth between the different characters, all such unique experiences and goals, whilst all having a wonderful contrast in challenges to heroically overcome. The voice actor is an absolute weapon and is so compelling. Can’t wait for the third.
P.S obsessed with the power mechanics.

Disappointing
A very disappointing book.
Amazingly stupid and one dimensional characters, especially for those who are supposed to be geniuses. All actions taken by characters are there to fit the lacklustre plot rather than making sense for that characters motive or personality.
The first book was more forgivable, with a sense of unknown powers and revelation of the world.
The narrator has forgotten the voices he used for characters in book 1 and used different voices for them, which seems exceptionally lazy.
I made it half way though and it's going to be the first book I haven't finished in 5 years.
