À propos de cet audio
An instant New York Times bestseller!
The fate of the Cinder Spires may be decided by crossed swords in the next exhilarating fantasy adventure from the author of the Dresden Files, in this New York Times bestselling series of noble families, swordplay, and airships.
For centuries the Cinder Spires have safeguarded humanity, rising far above the deadly surface world. Within their halls, aristocratic houses rule, developing scientific marvels and building fleets of airships for defense and trade.
Now, the Spires hover on the brink of open war.
Everyone knows it's coming. The guns of the great airship fleets that control the skies between the last bastions of humanity will soon speak in anger, and Spire Albion stands alone against the overwhelming might of Spire Aurora's Armada and its new secret weapon--one capable of destroying the populations of entire Spires.
A trading summit at Spire Olympia provides an opportunity for the Spirearch, Lord Albion, to secure alliances that will shape the outcomes of the war, and to that end he dispatches privateer Captain Francis Madison Grimm and the crew of the AMS Predator to bolster the Spirearch's diplomatic agents.
It will take daring, skill, and no small amount of showmanship to convince the world to stand with Spire Albion--assuming that it is not already too late.

Histoire
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

When marine private Oliver Chadwick Gardenier is killed in the marine barrack bombing in Beirut, somebody who might be Saint Peter gives him a choice: Go to heaven, which, while nice, might be a little boring, or return to earth. The Boss has a mission for him, and he's to look for a sign. He's a marine: He'll choose the mission. Unfortunately, the sign he's to look for is "57". Which, given the food services contract in Bethesda Hospital, creates some difficulty. Eventually it appears that God's will is for Chad to join a group called Monster Hunters International.

Necromancer is such an ugly word, but it's a title Eric Carter is stuck with. He sees ghosts, talks to the dead. He's turned it into a lucrative career, putting troublesome spirits to rest, sometimes taking on even more dangerous things. For a fee, of course. When he left LA 15 years ago, he thought he'd never go back. Too many bad memories. Too many people trying to kill him.

Histoire
Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

Immediately Engrossing As Always
Love Jim's second installment in the series. The way that he personifies cats is very well done and while I don't find the story quite as riveting as his DresdenFiles series, he is still a master story teller and very good at making compelling characters. Favorite author hands down.

Loved this book! Can’t wait for book 3!
Only 1 story line wasn’t awesome. But the rest was a tight, intriguing and well paced story. Some new and interesting lore and possibilities were introduced in this one.

Jim Butcher Rules!
Earth’s environment has been destroyed by unknown catastrophes, and the survivors seem determined to continue the process. This steampunk book delivers everything promised by “The Aeronaut’s Windlass,” and much more.
Good news: it’s a continuing story.
Bad news: I had to preorder it. And then read it immediately.
But CATS are major characters.

smutt beginning, enthralling plot.
honestly this book I started hating within the first couple hours of listening and it slowly redeemed itself as it progressed. I found the beginning of the story laden with brute fasioned sex incongruous with the characters that were introduced in the first book. Throughout there were also times where it seemed that solutions were made up to fix problems.
spoilers: when I speak on incongruity I refer to Grim a man of honor and life ending loyalty being so easily convinced to cheat on his wife! I also refer to his sudden introduction to brawling! if this had been introduced in the fiest book I wouldnt have had such a time coming to grips with it. when I talk about random solutions I am refering to a last ditch parry that countered a move valesco had made in just the previous bout. a true veteran of several duels would know his competition would watch for weaknesses and wouldnt repeat moves. also I am refering to feris' miraculous ability to fly.
