About this listen
After coming to the stark realization that they were deceived by a close and trusted ally, the surviving members of the Collective struggle to find purpose in the new apocalyptic, war-torn world around them.
When their paths inevitably cross, they begin a new quest to discover the truth and secrets behind the Warlord’s Chalice. Their journey soon leads them into new and uncharted territory, where they must face trials unimagined, with nothing to rely on but blind faith and the words of ancient texts.

I don't want to give too much of the plot away, but this is a reluctant hero/unlikely hero choses to make the ultimate selfless act sort of story, and although I had a pretty good idea of where the story was going partway through, the payoff was so much better, so much more devastating, and so much more uplifting than I expected.
Oh, and that comic relief? Best set of lines in the book: "Did you EAT him?" "I told you I was hungry!" (Forgive me if that's not exact. I was listening to the audiobook, after all!)
As always, Joel Jackson's narrative performance was a pleasure to listen to. The story is easy to listen to, the multiple characters and points of view easy to keep track of, and the pacing is perfect. If there are more Barrenworld books to come, I hope that Joel continues to get the narration job, because at this point he is the voice of this wonderful world.
I was granted complimentary audiobook acccess to Barrenworld: Rise of the Red Sun by the author, J. Edwards Holt, in exchange for an honest review. Thank you as always for the opportunity! My thoughts are my own and my review is honest.
The Best Barrenworld Yet!
