About this listen
Winner 2018 SOVAS Award for Audiobook Narration - Teens, Best Voiceover
They are the fatemarked. Misunderstood. Worshipped. Hated. Murdered at birth. Their time to step into the light has come.
An ancient prophecy foretold their coming, the chosen few who will bring peace to a land embroiled in a century of mistrust and war. When kings start dying, that hope and belief swiftly turns to fear. Roan Loren is one of the fatemarked, but has hidden his mark of power his entire life, fearing the damage it might cause to those around him.
A great evil is coming. He can't hide anymore.
In the spirit of fantasy epics like Throne of Glass and The Lord of the Rings, enter a world of magic and dragons, kings and queens, and victory and defeat, during a time when honor and valor still meant something.

Had an interesting premise just lacked originality where it matters.
The characters were what ruined it for me, it seems everyone wants to turn the traditional tropes upside down nowadays, but there’s a reason archetypes have stood the test of time. It could have worked if it were more subtle, but the characters come off as cliche and ‘cringey’. The dialogue is very edgy with most of the characters coming across sullen and they all seem to be the same, all fighting a fate they don’t want (sorry Jon Snow).
Superb narrator though, will look out for his name on other titles.
I tried my best

The characters, the story, the writing, the narration. It’s just all so good! And I really love the postludes that give so much depth and back story. You really get to know the characters and they almost become like family.
If you like a good fantasy and being drawn into a story then this is perfect.
10/10
Superb Series!

The concept is strong
The character development is strong - e.g. you find yourself liking characters that you shouldn't
The narration is really good - Derek does a good job at a female voice and making it credible
You look and think 19 hours wow that's long, but it's so good it feels like 5 minutes! He also gives you back stories at the end which give you further insight into the characters (he could have done these as flashbacks just as well)
never mind the book LOVED THIS SERIES
A real epic adventure - thank you

Kinda Meh, but just engaging enough.

By far the hardest audiobook I've ever listened to, but I can't give it less than 3 stars because it's considerably better than average story, even if I got basically no joy out of listening to it and won't continue the series unless someone puts a gun to my head.
It's not bad by any means, just incredibly dire but not to the point of being so grimdark it's just a comedy either.
Well written but extremely melodramatic book
