About this listen
Kelvin Wiltshire lives the life of a simple cook in a remote village on the far side of Trendham.
The townsfolk think little of the man and his son and believe him to be just another refugee from the Terabinian war. On cold winter nights, they share rumors of the bloody conflict and the mysterious death of Will Cartwright, the mighty mage who had the power to command storms.
They like the new cook. They fear the fallen king. But the two men are one and the same.
Haunted by nightmares from his past, Will has chosen a life of exile, hoping to erase the blood from his soul by forging a simple life. Service and family might ease his pain, but beneath his scars are deeper wounds: a queen and wife turned into a lich, friends poisoned with hate. While he seeks peace in isolation, his absence has left a void, and an ancient foe craves a return to power.
Patient and malevolent, the enemy knows the nature of man, and anger is an oh-so-useful tool in the game of nations. As war looms, Will’s anonymity—and the life he’s built—are threatened, forcing him to choose between the friends of his past and the friends of his present. To win, he’ll need what he left behind: the mantle of the Stormking.

"In a realm meticulously populated with trolls, elves, dragons, and mages, Reynolds is at his best giving lively voices to nosy aunts, curious cousins, and a brother-in-law with a heart of gold." —AudioFile Magazine

very hard to review this after the last book
I can't tell if it's the best of the series or just my relief at the recovery from the travesty of the previous novel. Like many of the other reviewers I was not going to buy this having been blindsided by the authors sabotage of what had been an amazing fantasy series to date in the previous book.
In retrospect the author should have either released them closer together or included some of the current in the previous book ( or sacked his editor ).
Part of what makes this series so great is Tim's narration, easily the best narrator out there and this series along with red rising are his stand out performances.

What a book!
This had everything. So much story, excellent pacing and was honestly the best book I’ve read in a long time. The serious themes and situations mixed in with dark humour was brilliant. Narration, as to be expected from Tim was great.
(Spoiler) Looking forward to seeing how the series develops with the a conflict with elves seeming inevitable. Great job from the author

the story and narrator were fantastic
The story and narrator were fantastic. Admittedly started a bit slowly. Got hooked after the first hour or so of listening.
