Acerca de esta escucha
Isabella Rubén is a traitor - at 12 years old.
Disgraced, abandoned by her friends and shunned by her family, Isabella is sent into exile with scant hope of returning to her former home. Her destination, Kirkhaven Hall; a stone mansion miles from civilization, inhabited only by a pair of older exiles. Existence as she knew it is over.
But as she tries to settle into Kirkhaven Hall and a life far from the one she enjoyed before her fall from grace, she discovers that the hall has secrets. Intruders on the grounds, ghostly shadows moving at night...and a plot that may destroy everything she once held dear.

Historia
Adam of Beneficence wanted to be a magician, and even undertook a magical apprenticeship, but there isn’t a single spark of magic in his entire body. In desperation, his master arranged for him to study at Heart’s Eye University, a former school of magic that has become a university, a place where magicians and mundanes can work to combine their talents and forge the future together. But all is not well at Heart’s Eye. The magical and mundane apprentices resent and fear each other, and outside, powerful forces are gathering to snuff out the future before it can take shape.

Elliot Richardson thought he’d lost everything. He’d come home from deployment to find his wife cheating on him, his sons strangers and his life in tatters. Driving away, unsure where he was going, he fell through an interdimensional rift and found himself in a very different world, a city of magic and mystery and dangers beyond his comprehension, a land spinning out of control. Innovations from the distant west unsettle the monarchy and challenge the position of the aristocrats and warlords who hold the kingdom in their grasp.

Elaine is an orphan girl who has grown up in a world where magical ability brings power. Her limited talent was enough to ensure a magical training, but she's very inexperienced and was lucky to get a position working in the Great Library. Now, the Grand Sorcerer - the most powerful magician of them all - is dying, although initially that makes little difference to Elaine; she certainly doesn't have the power to compete for higher status in the Golden City. But all that changes when she triggers a magical trap....

Both Uncle Ira and Morag are also exiles at Kirkhaven, which is a dank, not very clean, old musty hall, and far below the standards that Isabella, who has been pampered her entire life, is used to.
Isabella gets a very rude awakening upon arrival at the hall, Morag explains things to her in no uncertain terms (putting Isabella in her place very quickly), so that Isabella understands just how far she has fallen.
This is a fascinating story, as we get to see how Isabella Ruben, the daughter of one of the most powerful houses in Shallot, has fallen. Isabella was, potentially a rival to lead that house when the Father dies, given her twin Akin does not want to lead the house, but she has no hope of this now. She will be lucky to ever return to Shallot.
As she is pondering her future, her life, and deciding on what to do, several different things unfold for Isabella. Isabella is banned from leaving the grounds or lands of Kirkhaven hall, although she is allowed to roam the extensive grounds. Whilst walking around the grounds, she finds a young boy around her age. After talking for a while, he convinces her to leave the grounds, against her Uncle’s wishes, and whilst out, they are confronted by the towns bullies. It is here, that Isabella discovers that she is actually quite a bit stronger than the two strongest bullies.
She also starts to have an epiphany about herself, and who she has been, how she has treated people. It is fascinating watching as this rather spoiled character, who in the first three books, we had all come to despise, becomes a character that you really like and understand, and can empathise with.
As this book unfolds, we get to really explore Isabella Ruben’s character and past, and she is an intriguing character. Her friendship with Callum is a lot of fun, and it is wonderful to watch as Isabella literally changes before our eyes. Without giving too much away, her transformation is just outstanding and so great to read.
However, everything is not as it seems at Kirkhaven Hall, Isabella does not feel right about the place from the moment she steps into the place. She sees a ghost almost immediately, but is told it is just the wards as they are old and not maintained well. On top of that, her uncle is very strange, and wants her to take up potions, so she can help him with brewing things. He also wants her to try some things that he has made, stuff that she is not sure what it is, and there is nowhere to go….
In the first three books, we learned to absolutely Hate Isabella Ruben, as she was a total bitch to everyone, especially to Caitlyn and Rose. In this book however, we get to see a different side of her, and it is a testament to Nuttall’s character writing that we not only get to understand Isabella, but also start to like her.
The world-building continues to be exceptional in these books, Nuttall creates these stunning back drops in which to tell his stories. Kirkhaven Hall is beautifully described, with its eerie halls, and wards that are constantly in flux due to their age. The grounds of Kirkhaven are just as stunning, and the surrounding area including the village is just wonderful. Nuttall does a masterful job of not only describing the village, but those that live there.
Whilst this is a major deviation to the storyline from the first three books, it is an absolute must read, not only as it is integral for later books in the series, but just because it is an outstanding addition to this series!!
Thrilling, fast-paced, and with some of the best character work to date in this series, this is a book not to be missed!!
Saskia Maarleveld has such a beautiful voice, you can listen to it endlessly without tiring of it, it is just so easy to listen to. She does a stunning range of both Male and Female voices, and within each of the genders, she is able to create a range of character voices so that you can clearly tell who is talking without having to be told.
On top of this Maarleveld captures the emotional state of her characters with perfection, so that you can clearly understand how the characters feel at the time they are speaking, whether than be angry, sad, happy, elated, shocked, frightened, etc. Maarleveld really uses this to bring the story to life, adding a whole extra dimension to her storytelling.
Saskia Maarleveld is one of the truly exceptional Narrators, and she is just a pleasure to listen to, this is an absolute must listen to as it is so good as an audiobook!!

Great book, but slow in places.

The story here is a solid fantasy adventure, with evil villains and a good sidekick. We get more world development, including bits of the backstory that was alluded to in the previous book. The protagonist previously a stereotypical "mean girl", is depicted as having learned her lesson from her mistakes. I see this as a too facile heel-face-turn, but it works for this book.
Note: In the whole series, the ages of the protagonists doesn't match their actions. This is not the way that 12-year-olds act. But if you assume that they are 16 or so instead, the stories work pretty well.
This series isn't ever likely to be a favorite of mine, but it seems to be finding its way into a solid school fantasy.
