About this listen
The dragons are gone, the powerful magics that broke the world diluted to little more than parlour tricks, but the kingdoms of men remain, and the great game of thrones goes on. Lords deploy armies and merchant caravans as their weapons, manoeuvring for wealth and influence. But a darker power is rising - an unlikely leader with an ancient ally threatens to unleash again the madness that destroyed the world once already.
Only one man knows the truth and, from the shadows, must champion humanity. The world's fate stands on the edge of a dagger, its future on the toss of a coin....

Narrator needs to narrow his volume range
I enjoyed the story, however the narrator seems to start a sentence really loud and end the sentence in a whisper that you can barely hear. After about half an hour or so he settles down, however he keeps doing it for short periods in the book . This range in volume is particularly annoying as you can only set the volume so that you can still hear when he’s practically whispering, which results in your ears hurting and a bad headache by the time you’re significantly through the book.

Great start to a promising series
An interesting and engaging book, definitely worth a listen, though as the first of a series, it so far lacks a unified thread. As a 'first book' it resolves into what are effectively two separate stories within a shared world, where events from one half feel distant from the other. Though some events do impact both stories, it will be interesting to see them tied together more directly in the future. On its own, this divide doesn't really make the book feel too disjointed, and transitions from the world of courtly politics to the world of mercantile banking complement each other, especially as the latter helps ground the world. Basically, a good book that gives me confidence the series as a whole has the potential to be great, and does come to a decent conclusion on its own, but might be even better as part of the series. Narrating was good quality and characters definitely have their own voices, but it was not a standout in the way it can be for some audiobooks.

Highly recommended
Loved the machinations and plots, but the moments I had to think (what!) when a amiable likeable character kills ten thousand people by setting fire to their city, that does linger in the memory. Great gritty narration by Pete Bradbury

Exceptional! (but no book 4 on Audible).
Exceptional story. The best thing I have read/listened to since ASOIAF. Narratives following different characters. None of whom seem like a truly faultless hero. All have significant flaws and/or are downright unlikable - making it far more interesting.
But, currently there's no Book 4 (the widow's house) on Audible. I had to listen to it on another streaming service. So, you might want to check if it's back available again before you start.

A severely underrated series.
As the title states.
Great story. This series contains, I think, my all time favourite character. And the narration does an excellent job of differentiating the characters and capturing their individuality.
Well worth a listen.
