Summary

An empire in flames. A prisoner of war. An unbreakable will to escape.

At just 15, Eskara Helsene fought in the greatest war mankind has ever known—and lost. There is only one place her enemies would send a Sourcerer as powerful as her: the Pit, a prison sunk so deep into the earth the sun is a distant memory. Now, she finds herself stripped of her magic; a young girl surrounded by thieves, murderers, and worse. In order to survive she will need to make new allies, play the inmates against each other, and find a way out.

Her enemies will soon find out that Eskara is not so easily broken.

Good story, great prose and a great narrator for an incredible book for lovers of Grimdark. You can find the details somewhere else, but those are the basics I look for on a review

I'll give it 4.5 Stars for some repetition here and there (Yes Eska, we know you were very naive, no need to tell us again)

I you're looking for your next Grimdark fix, this is it... an amazing look into the heart of the human soul

Great Grimdark

I have to say first that I found the performance excellent which probably lifted the over all score a star

That said good stoy, likeable unlikeable main POV character and interesting story line. I like the character interactions and the looking back with hindsight perspective.

Shades of Patrick Rothuss going on. Not quite the same level but atleast have 4 more books
to take us on. Looking forward to it.

Great Start

I listened to this on audiobook as it was included with my audible membership. The description interested me and I went into it not knowing what to expect, other than the blurb.

The story is very enjoyable. Extremely gritty and raw. This is a great escape story, with friendship being a main point and what people would do in a chance of escape.

The narrator was brilliant, really enjoyed listening to her read the story. 3.5 stars.

Come chat books with me @readsgavin

Glad the trilogy is finished as I'm going straight into book 2
