About this listen

The legacy of Mari and Alain blazes ahead in this brand-new sequel to the hit Audible original series The Pillars of Reality.

The world of Dematr had been locked unchanging for centuries by the Great Guilds, most people living in a world of oil lamps, crossbows, and horse cavalry, the Mechanics reserving to themselves the technology for steam locomotives, rifles, and far-talkers while the Mages treated all others as if they were nothing - until Master Mechanic Mari, dragon slayer and pirate queen, and Master of Mages Alain raised the army of the new day to free their world.

Kira of Pacta Servanda, the daughter of the two greatest heroes of her world, was six years old the day she stood on a battlement in Dorcastle, staring up at a statue of her mother while surrounded by bodyguards who fenced Kira off from the nearby crowds. As the morning sun cast the shadow of Mari's statue over Kira, she realized that she would spend the rest of her life in that shade. Then the world of Dematr learned that a new kind of ship had left the far-distant world of Urth. The ship would take only 10 years to cover the immense distances between stars. Of all the colony worlds, the ship was coming to Dematr. But for what purpose? Kira was 16 when the ship from Urth arrived, and she discovered that her world still needed heroes.

Instantly buying book 2

Engaging story with only a few chiche moments. You get so involved with the characters you don't want to stop listening. I've been listening while doing the garden, and the garden has never looked better. Thank you

will I listen to the next one?

probably. cringeworthingly cheesy at some points and very thin on details/history. but well performed and a fair story. probably better for teenagers (which I am sadly not). if the future books filled in the history and added a bit of depth to the plot it could be a really good story.

Super book

worth holding out on, till the end.
Slow start, nearly gave up, but after the first half was completed, it got good.
Missed dragons. I am short on my need for dragons.

good read

As good as the original series. Highly recommended and I would also highly recommend the original series. Not steam punk but set in an age of steam.

Overall the book is fine

Any additional comments?

Overall I thought the book was okay.

The performance by Macleod Andrews was great as usual.

My main problem with the book is the character Jason as he feels more like a caricature of the "nice guy" than a real person. There is also a double standard as when Kira does what would be considered sexual harassment in our pc society it is completely fine, but if Jason as much as looks at a woman in the wrong way he would be ostracized.

The second issue with Jason is how he make remarks on technology and constantly make comments about video games. He keeps comparing situations to things he has experienced in video games and expect someone from the 19th century to understand these things. As someone from an advanced civilization you would understand that these concepts holds no meaning to the other person and thus you wouldn't say it, as it would make no sense to them. You would not say to a African tribesman that you milked a cow in virtual reality.
