Fantasy & SciFi
The penultimate volume of the mighty Riftwar Cycle
War rages in Midkemia but behind the chaos there is disquieting evidence of dark forces at work.
Jim Dasher’s usually infallible intelligence network has been cleverly dismantled; nowhere is safe. He feels that the world is coming apart at the seams and is helpless to protect his nation.
Quiet palace coups are underway in Roldem and Rillanon; and King Gregory of the Isles has yet to produce an heir. In each kingdom a single petty noble has risen from obscurity to threaten the throne.
Lord Hal of Crydee and his great friend Ty Hawkins, champion swordsman of the Masters’ Court, are entrusted with the task of smuggling Princess Stephané and her lady-in-waiting, the lovely but mysterious Lady Gabriella, out of Roldem to a place of greater safety. But is there any safe haven to be found?
Meanwhile, Hal’s younger brothers Martin and Brendan are attempting to hold the strategic city of Ylith against an onslaught of Keshian Dog Soldiers, and a mysterious force from beneath the sea. The Kingdom might lose Crydee and recover; but if Ylith falls, all is lost.
An unknown player appears to orchestrating these conflicts. Can Pug and the Conclave of Shadows track down this source before Midkemia is destroyed?

Inte alls lika bra uppläsare som de övriga av Feists böcker. Saknar personifiering och har konstiga uttal av namn och platser. Ungefär som en Texasbo som försöker uttala Franska gatunamn...

Älskar hela Midkemia-serien och denna bok är inget undantag, men uppläsaren... herregud vilken katastrof.

Lyssnat en timme och funderar på att hoppa över denna bok. Nästa bok har ordinarie uppläsare.

En timme in och jag ger upp! uppläsarrösten pajar vad som verkar vara en bra bok.

Dålig uppläsare, för snabb och utan kännsla, fel uttal mm.

Tyckte aldrig att Joyce var bra men den här var sämre som uppläsare vilket kan bero mycket på att man vant sig med en annan i serierna. För övrigt samma nivå som tidigare Feist böcker

Bra bok, dålig uppläsare

Upplösningen är fruktansvärd. Ny person som ingenjörstrupper in sig på uttal. Svårt att följa med om man bara lyssnat.
