À propos de cet audio
Powerful beings from the fringes of Chaos have come to the realm of Alorin. Fate bends to their will, and their will is set upon Alorin's destruction. Alone in understanding the threat they pose, Alorin's Fifth Vestal, Björn val Gelderan, has launched a desperate plan to stop them: a "great game" played upon the tapestry of mortal life. Now, in Paths of Alir, Björn's Players have taken the field.
Along the lush Caladrian coast of Agasan, the truthreader Tanis d'Giverny returns to the place of his birth and finds mysterious and wonderful workings waiting for him. But the zanthyr Phaedor warns Tanis that ominous events lie ahead, and the lad soon wonders if even his mother's magical lessons will be enough to keep him alive.
In the dungeons of Tal'Shira, held prisoner by the Adept Inquisitor Taliah hal'Jaitar, Prince Trell val Lorian is facing a life of enslavement. Only two paths lie open before him: one means an eternity of torture fighting Taliah's attempts to break him; the other requires surrendering to her will. But can he really sacrifice everything he is to walk Taliah's path of twisted magic known as mor'alir?
In the snow-bound Castle of Tyr'kharta, Prince Ean val Lorian must choose to save his brother Sebastian or his loyal men. But to choose his men means leaving Sebastian to an eternity of enslavement; while rescuing Sebastian means abandoning his friends, and his honor along with them. Either decision will test Ean's newfound skills, as well as his conviction, for as the prince soon learns, once a man becomes a Player in the First Lord's game, not even death can give reprieve.

Most of the time the Moontide Bridge lies deep below the sea, but every 12 years the tides sink and the bridge is revealed, its gates open for trade. The Magi are hell-bent on ruling this new world, and for the last two Moontides they have led armies across the bridge on "crusades of conquest". Now, the third Moontide is almost here, and this time the people of the East are ready for a fight... but it is three seemingly ordinary people that will decide the fate of the world.

A warrior with nothing to fight for is paired with a thieving assassin with nothing to lose. Together they must steal a treasure that no one can reach. The Crown Tower is the impregnable remains of the grandest fortress ever built and home to the realm’s most valuable possessions. But it isn’t gold or jewels the old wizard is after, and this prize can only be obtained by the combined talents of two remarkable men. Now if Arcadius can just keep Hadrian and Royce from killing each other, they just might succeed.

Aren has lived by the rules all his life. He's never questioned it; that's just the way things are. But then his father is executed for treason, and he and his best friend, Cade, are thrown into a prison mine, doomed to work until they drop. Unless they can somehow break free.... But what lies beyond the prison walls is more terrifying still. Rescued by a man who hates him yet is oath-bound to protect him, pursued by inhuman forces, Aren slowly accepts that everything he knew about his world was a lie.

The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite - a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses.

A new love
I was already enthralled with this series after the first book, but the twists and turns in the story during the third instalment had me at the edge of my seat. Furthermore, the character development of Tanis, and the revelations at the end of the book had me falling completely in love with the character. Very great listen. I thoroughly enjoy listening to Nick Podehl.

Overuse of Romance/Sex as Plot Device Ruins Great Fantasy
These novels could have been outstanding, but I can no longer bear them. I read 2 3/4 of them before I grew sick of the endless, insipid romance, or the overuse/misuse of sex as a mechanism to achieve goals lofty or otherwise. It seems each interesting character must have their entire personality subverted by a Great Love, usually one that is utterly nonsensical. Romantic love is a wonderful thing, to be sure, but it does not trump everything else and it shouldn’t be allowed to ruin otherwise exceptional fiction. It is possible for good and likeable characters to have motivation rooted on other values. It is possible for two characters to form a powerful bond without making love to do so. It is possible for an evil magic user to induce the worst possible torture without repeatedly raping their victim (thankfully, these rapes were man-on-man and woman-on-man, so at the very least I didn’t have to endure horrific scenes of women being raped).
For those who think they can listen to these parts of the story without going mad, here are some of the good parts. The system of magic is very cool. The generation of suspense in having characters discover their origins through trials and tribulations is captivating. The ethnic diversity is fabulous. The conception of various kinds of rebirth and immortality is imaginative and compelling. If all of this sounds like enough to keep you going through the tiresome BS, then I wish you the best. For my part, I will satisfy myself with some synopses and move on with something more worth my time.

This book emphasized my problems with the series
There are too many kidnappings in this series. I liked the first book since it was original but after the second book and this book I had enough. I didn't even finish this one because it got too annoying. Like there are so many characters and perspectives why do all of them need to be captured some of them multiple times in the same book.
