About this listen

Yrlissa Blackmist has been a high-ranking member of the Broken Blade Assassin's Guild for longer than most family lines have existed.

Such a long life of killing has left plenty of dangerous enemies in its wake. An ancient witch coven, a jealous assassin, and even a demon lord all have old scores to settle.

With one last contract to fulfill, Yrlissa hopes to be free from her past and her guild forever so she can disappear with her husband and young daughter. But the past doesn't forget so easily, and neither will a betrayed guild of magical assassins. Yrlissa's only concern is to keep her new family safe, but with enemies closing in on all sides, will they become a distraction she cannot afford?

The narration is very good, the story is interesting so far, but looking at the reviews of the next book of this series, it doesn't seem to be for me because I'd like more character development where for example if a character is a god or semi-god and lived for 10k so far, he/she wouldn't be beaten by some other characters who lived less than 200 years bcs he/she didn't paid attention.

A fantastic and gruesome tale into the Darkness Within Saga, Yrlissa Blackmist has been a high ranking member of the Broken Blade assassin's guild member for Decades, after she betrayed the guild, Haunted by all the death she has dealth out, Her past is only thing in her way, and always has away of catching up, with a husband and a daughter to protect, she knows her life will always be threat to their safety, a jealous rival will bring a sentence that will set her future for her and a vengeance that will lead to even more death, grim, Dark In a world only the best survive, great preformence from narrator Simon Vance, perfect gravily voice for unruly characters, highly recommend...😁

The story is good to start, follows a fairly well known path for a fantasy novel. Interesting take on different factions and characters that are introduced. Unfortunately towards the end the brist in logic is disasterous and spoiled the book for me. I expect this was written after the series and the author got stuck and needed to align the end with the beginning of book 1, which I have yet to read.

What happened there at the end?
