About this listen
THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
No man is above the law.
The Empire of the Wolf simmers with unrest. Rebels, heretics and powerful patricians all challenge the power of the imperial throne.
Only the Order of Justices stands in the way of chaos. Sir Konrad Vonvalt is the most feared Justice of all, upholding the law by way of his sharp mind, arcane powers and skill as a swordsman. At his side stands Helena Sedanka, his clerk and protégé, orphaned by the wars that forged the empire.
When the pair investigate the murder of a provincial aristocrat, they unearth a conspiracy that stretches to the very top of imperial society. As the stakes rise and become ever more personal, Vonvalt and Helena must make a choice: will they abandon the laws they've sworn to uphold in order to protect the empire?
Introducing an unforgettable protagonist destined to become a fantasy icon, The Justice of Kings is an unmissable debut where action, intrigue and magic collide.

A damn fine book!!
A well structured book, both in itself as a single volume, and also as the first book in a larger series. A great foundation for what is to come. Great characters, full plot, and some bloody battles as well.

A perfect story and performance
This is a wonderfully immersive and utterly convincing story with the ring of truth about it. The narrator is superb.

Excellent story
Fast paced, full of action and a good murder mystery with
very interesting characters and magic system too.
Gives me slight Witcher vibes.
Lucy Paterson is a great narrator as well.

there are better books out there. The main character can be very annoying and frustrating.
