About this listen
A volume of short stories by the bestselling author of The Broken Empire series, Mark Lawrence.
This is a collection of fourteen stories of murder, mayhem, pathos, and philosophy, all set in the world of the Broken Empire.
Within these pages, you will find tales of men such as Red Kent, Sir Makin, Rike, Burlow and the Nuban, telling of their origins and the events that forged them. There is Jorg himself, striding the page as a child of six, as a teenage wanderer and as a young king. And then there is a tale about Prince Jalan Kendeth – liar, cheat, womaniser and coward.
To the new reader, welcome to a lawless world where wit and sword are the most useful weapons, and danger lurks as much in candle-lit palaces as in dark alleys and dense woodland. To those who have already journeyed with Jorg, we hope you will enjoy renewing old acquaintances with your favourite characters.

‘Excellent – on a par with George R.R. Martin’
Conn Iggulden
‘Lawrence’s poetic prose is amazing, far and away the best of the modern fantasy authors’
Peter V. Brett
‘Lawrence improves with every book he writes . . . we may have to turn the ratings system up to eleven’
Starburst Magazine
‘Lawrence gets better with each book he writes’
Myke Cole
Overall it's great to hear about some of the secondary characters and get a lot more back story to them, as well as the world building in general. And some of the fun little crossovers, or Easter Eggs if you want, are a lot of fun too.
