About this listen

Set ten years after the events in Prince of the Blood, this book is a remarkable adventure of mystery and magic.

In Amos Trask's ship, Prince Nicholas and Squire Harry set sail for a friendly visit to Uncle Martin in Crydee. But while the two are guests in Crydee, disaster strikes.

Nicholas, third son of Prince Arutha, is a gifted youngster, but sheltered by life at his father’s court in Krondor. To learn more of the world outside the palace walls, Nicholas and his squire, Harry, set sail for pastoral Crydee, where Arutha grew up.

Shortly after their arrival, Crydee is brutally attacked. The castle is reduced to ruins, the townspeople slaughtered and two young noblewomen – friends of Nicholas – are abducted.

As Nicholas ventures further from the familiar landmarks of his home in pursuit of the invaders, he learns that there is more at stake than the fate of his friends, more even than fate of the Kingdom of the Isles, for behind the murderous pirates stands a force that threatens the entire world of Midkemia, and only he is destined to confront this terrifying threat.

Peter Joyce is always a pleasure to listen to. He brings the story alive. And the story itself was captivating and exciting. After loving the riftwar saga I was hesitant to read on in case of a let down but I was not disappointed at all.

Brilliantly read, thoroughly enjoyed the story!

Such a great story, with lots of action that often had me sitting on the edge of my seat. A few amusing moments that had me laughing out loud and other griping moments that had me pausing with anguish.
I have to admit, Peter Joyce doesn’t do a fabulous woman’s voice... to start with, it was actually cringe worthy. However, he made up for that with the rest of his captivating narrative.

Couldn’t put it down!
