Forsaken to be a killer and sent to be a destroyer, Sviska must choose his own path.

Sviska is a man of the shadows, an assassin without any one place to call his own. But in the Far North, he discovers a secret. Magic, long thought lost to the world, is alive. The genocide to destroy every elf, wizard, and sacred being of old is not yet complete. Sviska's masters work the strings of the world and he has been sent for a task he does not even fully understand yet.

When at last he feels he has what he has always wanted, darkness falls upon the world. He must rise to face an enemy more terrible than any he has ever met.

Fate will force him into a terrible choice.

The story is paced well. I love how the narrator gives each character life. It is an adventure with many twists throughout. I enjoyed listening.

A fantastic adventure

Let’s begin with the good news:
I really liked the premise of the book. It was quite original in its set up and tone and I liked that the world was kept relatively small in the beginning, in which it left room for interpretation and easing into the world.

Furthermore the world shows promise, even though the window towards it seems to close a bit on it in the last chapter

Another big positive is the masterful performance of Sir Reynolds, as always, which is the only reason why I gave it 3 stars.

Regardless, I felt that the book, its story and the characters missed a lot of depth and intelligence. Furthermore it was too messy in regards to plot lines, and conclusions of its set ups. Furthermore it was sometimes unclear which characters where seen by the all knowing reader and I missed a lot of why’s. Sometimes there was simply no good reason for the protagonist to be somewhere, act in a certain way or even talk in a certain way. Example: The protagonist kills a pet dragon of a breeder that is very emotional about its “children”, but they still become the best of friends with the dragon breeder two chapters later.

Conclusion. I’m disappointed, however I do wonder about the next book to see if it can redeem itself.

A lot of promise, but way too messy

There was an attempt to be unique and "special" by using odd turns of phrase. The net result is a difficult listen that constantly had me tripping over awkward and poorly developed statements and phrases. it did not flow, in spite of a good performance by one of my favourite narrators.

Tried hard to be special. Ruined the flow.

The only reason to listened is TGR. Great performance, as usual.
I often found myself asking... what? why? huh?? I will be returning this title.

A great adventure! The action never seems to flag. Very good characters. I really like the world created here. I appreciate that the writer doesn’t fall into melodrama.

In this book, J.T. Williams, takes us for an adventure following a master assassin by the name of Sviska. Given a simple task, one he has done many times over, but this time he made a mistake. He hesitated, thus causing a landslide of events to unfurl. Now on the course to right his failure he is sent north to perform an odd and abnormal job. To take on the identity of a Winemaker. In this we are sent into a spiraling adventure of epic proportions as Sviska’s journey has only just started!

Paired with the amazing voice over preformed by Tim Gerard Reynolds this series of books is by far my favorite audible book this year of 2019!

Excellent!

It was a decent listen. I don't think this series is necessarily for me.

Decent story

Thank God for Tim Gerard Reynolds otherwise I would have stopped. just seemed like it was written based on some sort of D&D gaming sessions the author played in his teens.

Ho Hum
