Legend. Myth. Nightfall has long been rumored to be nothing more than whispers on the breeze.

If only it were so. In those halls of darkness, where children are taken from the world and given to shadow and dust, Asher is destined for that same fate. He will become the myth. He will become the legend. He will become the whisper of Death itself.

That which he was is dead; forgotten. Now he is a blade in the dark, a weapon to be wielded by his masters. A killer.

Yet, despite all his training and years of spilling blood, there is a crack in Asher’s conditioning. Something within him is broken, unbound even. A sliver of humanity has survived and dreams of freedom. Now, standing on a knife’s edge, his mind threatens to unravel, taking him from the only path he has ever known and away from the clutches of Nightfall.

It has never been done. Exile is not a choice. It is a death sentence.

But there is another life that calls to him, a life roaming the wilds and protecting the innocent from the monsters which would prey upon them. Hunting monsters, however, is no easy task, especially when Asher himself is hunted by those who would drag him back to Nightfall.

Back to the darkness.

Good story

A thoroughly enjoyable read , a very tortured main character who is interesting to follow. The author cleverly never slips into too much of that self hating trope I dislike so much yet shows he is deeply affected by his past. I will definitely move onto the next book 5 stars all the way for me.

excellent and dark.

I've listened to these after the Echoes saga. I really hope that I haven't heard the last of these characters.
Amazing storytelling- Rivals Tolkien and Game of thrones.
