While Annise Gäric and her forces march on Castle Hill to retake the northern throne, her cousin, Rhea Loren, wages a naval war against Blackstone.

Infused with magic, shadows and starlight, the powerful godblades were believed to be lost nearly half a millennia ago, when the Godswar ended. Now, however, one has been found by the unlikeliest of wielders: Sampson Gaard, a blind but ambitious prince with something to prove. The only question is whether he controls the blade or the blade him. With an insidious evil lurking in the shadows, the answer may very well determine the fate of all Kingfall.

I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life. I was expelled from the university at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day. I have talked to Gods, loved women, and written songs that make the minstrels weep. My name is Kvothe. You may have heard of me.

Summary
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.

Superb Series!
I don’t usually write reviews but this is an amazing listen!
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.

A real epic adventure - thank you
This is page by page adventure and surprises - Thank you David for writing such an amazing story which I thoroughly enjoyed.
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)

awesome and not predictable
I found this book by searching for the narrator, something I have not done before. I have not been disappointed. the book is very true to it's genre but it's characters are satisfyingly imperfect, while engaging, the marks are pleasingly different, the storyline never predictable.

Enjoyed it!
My taste in fantasy and the way it's written may be different from others, but I thoroughly enjoyed this!
I thought the story was a little different than most fantasies, though it has knights and battles like most.
The narrator did a fantastic job!
As I said, my taste may be different than a lot of listeners because I've NOT enjoyed many fantasies that are listed on many of the "recommend" and "best" lists.

No cookie cutting-Complex world,Complex Characters
I got and ad for this book on facebook and looked it up on audible and I must say Facebook knows what I like because this book was fantastic. at first I was doubtful of the book, but I really liked how the author David Estes responded to each and every comment, author to reader interaction is so rare these days. Also a adore the character development throughout the series especially that of Rhea Loren and many others. There will be wars, courtly intrigue, and intelligent characters who know when to communicate information and when not too. Overall good read.
