About this listen

The Darkness that Comes Before, R. Scott Bakker's magnificent debut, drew thunderous acclaim from reviewers and fellow fantasy authors. Listeners were invited into a darkly threatening, thrillingly imaginative universe as fully realized as that of any in modern fantasy and introduced to one of the genre's great characters: the powerful warrior-philosopher Anasrimbor Kelhus, on whom the fate of a violently apocalyptic Holy War rests. Bakker's follow-up to The Darkness that Comes Before, The Warrior Prophet enticed readers further into the richly imagined world of myth, violence, and sorcery. The startling and far-reaching answers to these questions are brought into thrilling focus in The Thousandfold Thought, the conclusion to The Prince of Nothing trilogy.

Casting into question all the action that has taken place before, twisting listeners' intuitions in unforeseen directions, and remolding the fantasy genre to broaden the scope of intricacy and meaning, R. Scott Bakker has once again written a fantasy novel that defies all expectations and rewards the listener with an experience unlike any to be had in the canon of fantasy literature.

Critic reviews

"The Prince of Nothing trilogy is a work of unforgettable power." ( Publishers Weekly)
All stars

The book is Fantastic and the Narration is amazing. The book is an excellent conclusion to the trilogy and ends in a great place when all you want is to jump into the next book. The Absolute Gut Punch is that the next books aren't available on Audible and even if they were its not David DeVries narrating them, Whoever allowed this state of affairs to happen needs to have a long hard look in the Mirror and contemplate their suitability for their current job choice. I finished this book 2 weeks ago and still fuming.

the narrator continues to do an excellent job here lending authority to the prose. This is a great conclusion to the opening act of the second apocalypse sequence.

powerful and deliberately ambiguous
