About this listen
Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!
“A true fantasy masterpiece." —Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Since Victoria Aveyard launched the instant #1 New York Times bestselling Realm Breaker, the series has taken readers by storm. Now the sequel is here to continue this epic fantasy series.
The fate of the world rests on a blade’s edge.
With her Companions at her side, Corayne has mastered the ancient magic in her blood, closing one spindle and pushing back the evil that threatens their world. But the fight is far from over.
Queen Erida and her consort, Taristan, continue their march through Allward, crumbling castles and conquering kingdoms with an unstoppable army and unthinkable forces of darkness.
With no choice but to raise an army of their own, Corayne and her Companions face perilous lands, dangerous mercenaries, and seething monsters, as they rally a divided world behind them. But will they be strong enough to confront the latest evil that Queen Erida and Taristan have unlocked? Or will it consume their world in flames, dashing all hope for victory completely.
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Red Queen series, comes another sweeping and epic fantasy adventure featuring multiple-POVs, incredible action, and unforgettable twists, perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Tolkien himself.

Two years ago, Louise le Blanc fled her coven and took shelter in the city of Cesarine, forsaking all magic and living off whatever she could steal. There, witches like Lou are hunted. They are feared. And they are burned. As a huntsman of the Church, Reid Diggory has lived his life by one principle: Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. But when Lou pulls a wicked stunt, the two are forced into an impossible situation - marriage. Lou, unable to ignore her growing feelings, yet powerless to change what she is, must make a choice. And love makes fools of us all.

It once seemed so easy to Prince Rhen, the heir to Emberfall. Cursed by a powerful enchantress to repeat the autumn of his 18th year over and over, he knew he could be saved if a girl fell for him. But that was before he learned that at the end of each autumn, he would turn into a vicious beast hell-bent on destruction. That was before he destroyed his castle, his family, and every last shred of hope.

Story
Nahri has never believed in magic. Certainly, she has power; on the streets of 18th-century Cairo, she’s a con woman of unsurpassed talent. But she knows better than anyone that the trades she uses to get by - palm readings, zars, and a mysterious gift for healing - are all tricks, both the means to the delightful end of swindling Ottoman nobles and a reliable way to survive. But when Nahri accidentally summons Dara, an equally sly, darkly mysterious djinn warrior, to her side during one of her cons, she’s forced to reconsider her beliefs.

Brienna desires only two things: to master her passion and to be chosen by a patron. Growing up in Valenia at the renowned Magnalia House should have prepared her. While some are born with a talent for one of the five passions - art, music, dramatics, wit, and knowledge - Brienna struggled to find hers until she chose knowledge. However, Brienna's greatest fear comes true - she is left without a patron. But months later, her life takes an unexpected turn when a disgraced lord offers her patronage.

Dare I say it? Better than LOTR *gasp*
It’s clear that the author is a life-long fan of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Blade Breaker, even more so than its predecessor, Realm Breaker, is full of wonderful comparisons to the epic fantasy series. A life-long fan of Lord of the Rings myself, I was filled with nostalgia reading this stellar book. But I admit, it’s almost better! Or honestly, it is better! 🤪 There’s similar comraderie, the banter, the humour…the story is rife with little glimpses of beloved LOTR characters in these endearing new ones.
The story isn’t completely good vs evil, there’s grey characters, you find yourself rooting for the bad guys, hanging on their relationships and progress and dreams. Then you’re swept up in the found-family of the companions and wanting desperately for them to save the world and stay alive. *Chef’s kiss*
The world-building is top-notch, a wonderful, lyrically written land that’s connected to a beautiful (and detailed!! 😍) map. I loved every second of this book, and was increasingly nervous as it drew close to the end. I’m distrustful of Aveyard and her cliff-hanger endings, no matter how good they are, she relishes leaving her readers with their mouths hanging open. And she didn’t disappoint in this one either!

Exciting and gripping story.
I liked the characters that formed the companions, I think my favourite is Sorasa (sp?). I loved the first book Realm Breaker but I think this one was even more captivating. I have read other reviews that stated that they thought these books were even better than LOTR but though they are good, in my opinion not quite that good. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
