About this listen
In the grand tradition of George R.R. Martin and Robert Jordan, Sunday Times bestselling author Peter V. Brett continues his critically acclaimed Demon Cycle with the next dramatic instalment: THE SKULL THRONE.
The Skull Throne of Krasia stands empty.
Built from the skulls of fallen generals and demon princes, it is a seat of honour and ancient, powerful magic, keeping the demon corelings at bay. From atop the throne, Ahmann Jardir was meant to conquer the known world, forging its isolated peoples into a unified army to rise up and end the demon war once and for all.
But Arlen Bales, the Painted Man, stood against this course, challenging Jardir to a duel he could not in honour refuse. Rather than risk defeat, Arlen cast them both from a precipice, leaving the world without a saviour, and opening a struggle for succession that threatens to tear the Free Cities of Thesa apart.
In the south, Inevera, Jardir's first wife, must find a way to keep their sons from killing one another and plunging their people into civil war as they strive for enough glory to make a claim on the throne.
In the north, Leesha Paper and Rojer Inn struggle to forge an alliance between the duchies of Angiers and Miln against the Krasians before it is too late.
Caught in the crossfire is the duchy of Lakton – rich and unprotected, ripe for conquest.
All the while, the corelings have been growing stronger, and without Arlen and Jardir there may be none strong enough to stop them.
Only Renna Bales may know more about the fate of the missing men, but she, too, has disappeared…

I liked it!
What can I say. I have purchased all four books so more fool me if I didn't like it. I use audio books as white noise while I'm working, however, I found myself listening intently and even wondering about all the characters when I wasn't listening to this book. I have read a couple of reviews that complained of too many sex scenes but the only reason I noticed them was due to those reviews I had read. Others complained about a couple of characters but I would say there are always characters that people love to hate.

Blood, blood, blood… & then Death!
Many times during this book I felt stabbed, myself. Enough blood was spilled to fill the lake at Lacton. Hard plot twists & battles both epic & personal. Many divergences, much excitement!

political but enjoyable
4th book in the series focuses on political distrust and the divergence of the people rather than the war on demon kind. still enjoyable but was difficult to get through at times due to the political back and forth.
