Publisher's Summary
From R. A. Salvatore, the legendary creator of Drizzt Do'Urden, comes the start of a brand new epic journey.
When Aoleyn loses her parents, she is left to fend for herself among a tribe of vicious barbarians. Bound by rigid traditions, she dreams of escaping to the world beyond her mountain home.
The only hope for achieving the kind of freedom she searches for is to learn how to wield the mysterious power used by the tribe's coven known as the Song of Usgar. Thankfully, Aoleyn may be the strongest witch to have ever lived, but magic comes at price. Not only has her abilities caught the eye of the brutish warlord that leads the tribe, but the demon of the mountain hunts all who wield the Coven's power, and Aoleyn's talent has made her a beacon in the night.

Great story, poor ending choice
The story was great and I was drawn in very easily but the story glosses over some ideas near the end and the story does just that, it ends. The story doesn’t finish or wrap up or even leave at the best moment it just stops. I am sure this is get you to read the next book but it feels cheap.

absolutely breathtaking gripping amazing!!!
It was an absolute thrill to listen too. I have read all of the legend of drizzt books multiple time. and now being able to enter the world of Corona thru this book has gave me one of my new favorite books I've ever read or listened to. the world Is so well displayed and explained and the characters deep and meaningful. i cannot wait until I am able to read book two and hopefully so many more of this amazing new series!

Hauntingly satisfying
At first I thought, what have I gotten into. However, before long I became enamoured! The story is thick with spirit... Just as a ray of hope crest the hoizon, darkness engulfed. Brilliantly written by Salvatore. Colourfuly told by Reynolds.

Coming of Age in Corona
This is the first book I've read set in the world of Corona, and it's quite a refreshing change from the Forgotten Realms cycle.
Aoelyn is a very believable character, a teenager defying the strict traditions and customs of her elders. She has developed a strong moral compass in spite of the brutality around her.
The other main viewpoint character, Talmadge, has feet of clay.

Great Book
This was the first book I ever read/listened to by RA Salvatore and I was not disappointed . My only complaint is some of the so called plot twists are obvious from the start. #Audible1

could not stop listening!!! please more and more soon!!!! R.A always sucks me in and does not let me go until the end but even that's just a false reality cause I'm still hooked long after the book is done!!!
