About this listen
David Farland delivers the second in his high fantasy Runelords series, featuring a complex system of magic and a wondrous, expertly realized world.
Raj Ahten, ruler of Indhopal, has used enough forcibles to transform himself into the ultimate warrior: the Sum of All Men. Ahten seeks to bring all of humanity under his rule, destroying anyone in his path. But young Prince Gaborn has fulfilled a 2000-year-old prophecy and become the Earth King, a mythic figure who can unleash the forces of the Earth itself. He has managed to drive off Raj Ahten, but Ahten is far from defeated.
Striking at far-flung cities and fortresses, Ahten seeks to draw out the Earth King from his seat of power and to crush him. But as they weaken each other's forces in battle, the armies of an ancient and implacable inhuman enemy issue forth from the very bowels of the Earth.

Much better than the first.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue with the second book in the series since I found the first one lacking, but I'm glad I did. Better pacing a much better flow. Will not hesitate to continue on to the next one.

Brilliant but beware its addictive
How I had nor heard of these books is astonishing because they are as good as any series ever. I couldn’t stop listening once I got into it to my own peril - just too good to stop. Highly recommend if your a fan of Robert Jordan or Sanderson u’ll love this.

Epic Goodness.
Another brilliant adventure in The Runelords series, damn that was fantastic. Brotherhood of the Wolf is the second instalment of the David Farland epic series.
This book has it all. It's so fast-paced and full of heated conflict, with lots of bloodthirsty battles and significant events that change the course of the future for our favourite characters. This is a tale that will have you glued from start to finish.
Amidst all the action, magic, and interesting characters, and the power-play between good and evil, this book will remind you why you started reading fantasy in the first place. David Farland's worldbuilding and plot are absolutely excellent. The magic system is like no other I've read before, and it's just so damn intriguing and interesting.
In Brotherhood of the Wolf, Gaborn, now the Earth King has managed to drive off Raj Ahten, but the Wolf Lord is far from defeated. After all the destruction and murder Raj Ahten caused in book one. Raj Ahten seeks to draw out the Earth King from his seat of power in order to crush him.
An ancient enemy has resurfaced in their thousands from the shadows, throwing a new twist into the story. Reavers are a massive species of subterranean creatures that bear no resemblance to any surface-dwelling creature. Reavers are somewhat like insects, communicating through scents and having various "castes" that perform different functions within their "hives."
All men and enemy must band together if they are to have any chance of beating this force of evil.
This fantastic, amazing book is a must-read for any fan of fantasy, sword, and sorcery and those who enjoy epic old-style of fantasy, now for book three. Very highly recommend.

Well written and read
I like the pace and perspective viewpoints. The descriptive language is strong.
The voice is good too with different accents.
Good book #2 of the series. Magic system is growing stronger and deeper too.

stupid ending bad ruined seried done with it
absolutely ruined the book another one of those idiotic stances were the abolute bad guy kill thousands the hero kills thousands of his men then some stupid story line pathetic in its stupidness he let's the guy live? it's stupid things in stories that make me stop. this was so stupid so irritating I refuse to read further I've stopped this series. when a writer can't find a reason to keep the evil guy living and makes it a moral issue for 1 guy to live when thousands have died to kill him? stupid I've seen a TV show like that thousands die to kill 1 person then hero has conscience and let's him live. its irritating and bad writing I'm done with this stupid rubbish story

jus another tasteless dud.
the premises were nice in the first book. so i grabbed the second one, and mam, I'm just curious to which new modern fantasy lows the next books will sail ... of course I'm not that masochist, do i will pass after this one, assuming i can finish it
what went wrong?
well there is no story, just some dumb twentieth century politics and cheap psychology. i just can't understand how is it that fantasy authors, are implementing some contemporary politics and civics to a middle age fantasy book? what's the point?! if i wished to read some more of nowadays pov i just scroll my Google feed.
but when i take a fantasy book, i want to feel medieval, not 20th century socialdemocrat. is it that so hard to understand?
guys f**ng entertain us, stop the bland sermonizing. write fantasy stories, not manifestos.

Writing problem
When the sentences are badly written even Ray Potter can’t make it right. Badly written story. Can’t finish it.
