Summary

The thrilling third instalment in the Millennium's Rule series by international number one best-selling fantasy phenomenon Trudi Canavan.

Five years have passed since the Rebels confronted the Raen. Five years in which the boy Rielle rescued, Qall, has grown up among the Travellers, with no memory of the life that was stolen from him. Five years of chaos barely contained by Baluka and the Restorers. Worlds are at war, some overrun by deadly machines, some drained of magic by power-hungry sorcerers.

As Qall comes of age, and Rielle and Tyen's hard-won peace is threatened, their loyalties are tested - and Qall's very existence is at stake. Because Dahli is still determined to restore Valhan to power, and he will stop at nothing to succeed.

Escape to a new world. Discover the magic of Trudi Canavan.

Amazing story

ONLY disappointment is the inconsistency in how the names are pronounced between the 2 narrators

epic story, roll on the next book

I enjoyed listening to the whole trilogy on a whole, though can't really call it a trilogy as I heard a fourth is now under way, however this third story ties up the storyline so far & could be considered a fair conclusion if you weren't to listen or read the fourth. enjoyed the character arcs & the use of minor character stories that popped up to help create a world vision. great fantasy stuff!

Pronunciations

I’d give the performances higher stars if they’re co-ordinated the pronunciation of characters names. There was one main character name that was said completely differently by each narrator , very frustrating. However as a Trudi fan I love these books and have enjoyed now listening to the audio versions of them.

Enjoyable though a little predictable

The narration was okay but the two narrators pronounced names differently which is very annoying.

Trudi succeeds again

The story so far, as with all trudi’s books is un-put-down-able. Ticks every box. Easy to read (& listen) (I’ve done both) and always leaves you wanting more.

The audio book specifically - as with all audiobooks, you always have to push through the voice. Many accents “annoy” especially if your listening for 15 hours! Luckily both voices are easy to get used too in this bolinda reading/series. It took a few chapters mind... this was the case for 1, 2 and 3 books. But was very well worth it.

Another fantastic series from Trudy Canavan

I found Rielle’s story a little slow in book one but once it got going I really enjoyed the series so far! Can’t wait for the last instalment. Beautifully read by both narrators.

Great philosophy, slightly lacking emotion

A really interesting story which intricately explores deep questions of power, ethics, and mortality with remarkable skill. The only drawback is that it sometimes feels a little too cerebral, and the emotional impact we should feel is lost in the philosophical pondering.
Also, while the narrators are both perfectly competent, I do wish readers of the same book would have a discussion about the reading of fantasy names before recording...
