About this listen

Bridging the hatred of centuries did not come easy for Freyrík Farr and Ayden Vaska. As prince of a war-torn human province, Freyrík could ill afford to fall for an enemy. And Ayden, an elven warrior with 300 years of bitterness in his heart, wanted no part of love. Yet they came together despite themselves and the wills of their peoples, joining hearts and minds to fight a race of Dark Beasts threatening the extinction of mankind.

Yet the Dark Beast threat pales beside the dangers of a summons to the human High Court, home of the Aegis Exalted and the harshest test yet of Ayden’s and Freyrík’s fledgling love.

When the Aegis strips Ayden of his magic, Freyrík is forced to choose between his love for elf, Aegis, and king, all the while seeking the one uncertain path that might save his doomed race. Time is fast running out for mankind, and only by making peace among themselves and with their ancient elven enemies can they end the Dark war - and undo the tragedy that’s plagued humans, elves, and Dark Beasts alike for the last 300 years.

Interesting Story

The concept is interesting and well written. The characters are likeable and the narration is good.

New narrator was the final nail in the coffin

Did not finish, stopped at 20%. The change of narrator mid-series is too jarring, since it's plain as day this narrator either didn't listen to the previous book or decided against that interpretation. This narrator might be good/ even better, but not in this situation. The result is a very different characterization. I also really disliked Freyrik's continuous excuses and skimmed reviews on GR to see if he redeems himself. That would be a no.
