About this listen
The realm burns. Vaelin Al Sorna is tired of war. He's fought countless battles in service to the Realm and Faith. His reward was the loss of his love, the death of his friends, and a betrayal by his king. After five years in an Alpiran dungeon, he just wants to go home.
Reva intends to welcome Vaelin back with a knife between the ribs. He destroyed her family and ruined her life. Nothing will stop her from exacting bloody vengeance - not even the threat of invasion from the greatest enemy the Realm has ever faced.
Yet as the fires of war spread, foes become friends and truths turn to lies. To save the Realm, Reva must embrace a future she does not want - and Vaelin must revisit a past he'd rather leave buried.

Just as good second time around!
This is my second time listening to this series. Great story and I love Steven’s voice. What a phenomenal combination. Highly recommend both author and narrator.

Pretty good but not flawless...
unlike the some of the lead characters in this book who are just naturally talented at everything. the good guys just too good and the bad guys are cruel cowardly slavers or ignorant fanatics . needs more grey.

Even more engrossing
This is a really exciting 'next book'. The story is getting deeper and richer and more intricate. The characters are just engrossing. My only gripe and it's not a big one, is that Vaelen is a little too perfect. I am really enjoying the story though, and the narrator is good. I'd really like to be able to read along with this story though because it's so intricate but the kindle version isn't available to my country, worst luck. This is the kind of book I'd like to pour over, read glossaries about and prologues and epilogues! Great stuff! Reva is just an awesome character.

great story and narration
I really enjoyed this story and the narrator is very good. I got sucked into the story and just wanted to know more.
my only grip is that some of the name can get a bit confusing cause they sound similarish if you aren't paying attention

Don't believe the hate
I was a bit worried on whether I should continue the series because I saw that many were disappointed by this and the next book. I am glad that I did not listen to those reviews.
To be fair, the book is quite a bit different from the first. I definitely felt like the scope of each chapter was more about the world and it's kingdoms rather than characters (at least in comparison to the first). I think I would have preferred this story to have been a touch longer so that the author could have described the wars/politics in balance with the experiences of the characters.
Having said that, I think the story was great! I started this audiobook along side like 4 other fantasy world books and this was the first to finish by far (despite it being quite lengthy).
The orator did amazing again. I actually love that he doesn't exaggerate accents (which I find really distracting). Basically when a character is having an internal monologue, I feel like the author's tone is the same honest tone I would use with myself, which really helps make the characters more personable rather than pompous (eg compare to the Farseer trilogy orator).

Great story and great reading
Brutal but rewarding continuation of the Raven's shadow series. Well read by the voice actor. Thoroughly enjoyable finale.

great story...
The narrator lacks real emotion and some key scenes are lost in it. Otherwise the story is in top form.

Excellent sequal
It's refreshing to read such a fast paced series.
I love fantasy, and in all my readings I have never read stories with so much constant action as I find in these.
