Critic reviews
Praise for Raymond E. Feist:
‘File under guilty pleasure’
Guardian
‘Get in at the start of a master’s new series’
Daily Sport
‘Well-written and distinctly above average… intelligent… intriguing.’
Publishers Weekly
‘ Epic scope…vivid imagination…a significant contribution to the growth of the field of fantasy.’
Washington Post
This book was as enjoyable as all the others. It revolves around a plot of betrayal as the title suggests, but also focusses on the three different 'races' of elves; their reticence towards each other, and history. Both old characters, e.g. Pug, Squire Jimmy, Lochlear and new; Goran the moradell and a young untrained magician have adventures together. There are epic journeys, battles both physically and mentally testing. Some characters I grew to like got killed off. I always want all the goodies to pull through, but Feist never lets you have a good story without paying some emotional currency along the way. I'm purposely not giving detail so as not to spoil the book for others.
It's a good'n!! Just get it!!

It opens up so much more scope for the universe to go into, with new characters and old favourites too.
I really enjoyed this one and can't wait to see where he goes with it!
I struggle to listen to a lot of audio books, especially in this genre. There are so many different races and accents in them, that, for me, it can be hard to listen to and/or follow. Invariably, I end up giving up after a few chapters and buying a physical copy too.
REF'S books were the opposite for me though.
I'd read the first two saga's in physical format, but started the third saga as an audiobook. After listening to the first of those, I ended buying all of the previous books in audio format and litened to them all again before continuing with the rest of them.
Of course, it helps when you have one of the best in the business narrating it for you!
Obviously when it comes to narration, it's a personal preference and, for me, Peter Joyce is one of the best multi-character narrator's around. I'd swear there were more than one person doing it.
If you like Raymond E Feist and Peter Joyce, you can't wrong with, not just this, but the previous saga's too.
Would highly recommend!!
Feist at his best!
