About this listen

The Palace of the Dawn will soon be stormed. The most ruthless man of all time is one step away from assailing on Iovbridge and dethroning Sophie Delamere. The queen of Knightdorn is now alone, with neither allies nor an army capable of rebuffing the enemy that is approaching her city. Everything appears to be over, until a mysterious young man, Elliot, makes his appearance.

Entangled in a web of lies and politics, Elliot will try to draw Walter away from Iovbridge and face him in the stronghold of Wirskworth. He will attempt to rekindle relations and revive the old alliance between the queen of Knightdorn and Syrella Endor, the governor of Wirskworth. Elliot’s mission will take every fiber of his will, and if he fails, so shall the kingdom.

Game of Thrones meets Greek mythology in this explosive epic fantasy story, packed with war, medieval lore, magic, loyalty, and bravery. The first book in the series, The Dance of Light, will take you on an epic journey to a fantasy world of men and mythical creatures that will keep you spellbound till the very end.

I enjoyed listening to this book and the narrator is good with distinct voices for people. It's a debut novel, the first of 4, and I'm eager to see how the whole story pans out. Great world building, with lots of different species. If I have any criticism, it's that I felt it to be a little 'wordy', like the reader was being spoon-fed the information rather than working it out for themselves. That said, it's a fantastic tale, with some likeable (and some not likeable) characters. I am very eager to read more and see how Gregory brings the threads of the tale together.
I will reread/listen in the future as I always miss bits on the first go through. I await the sequels with great anticipation.

A great listen

I do love me a classic epic fantasy story with plenty of world building and plot. And this is just that! Elliot comes in and saves the day, while being a bit of a butt about it, but I hope he deflates a bit and we get to love a bit more on him as the series progresses. Great start to the series, and can't wait to see where it goes from here.

Epic adventure!
