About this listen
On steamy Pryan, never-ending sunlight and plentiful rain have created a jungle so vast that humans and elves dwell high in the trees and only dwarves live anywhere near the ground. From the treetops the aristocratic elves sell weapons to the other races, whose incessant warfare sends a steady steam of profits and essential resources skyward. Now, generations of dissent and race hatred will not heal—not even under the threat of annihilation at the hands of legendary Titans. Armed with little more than their wits and prophecy, an elf, a human, and a dwarf must unite to try to save the world from destruction.
*Includes a downloadable PDF of maps, sheet music for 'The Lay of Thillia' and 'Bonnie Earl', and other visuals from the book
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Narrator drove me crazy, but still a fun book
This book I have owned and read may many times over the years and enjoyed it. While I would argue that it is the weakest in the whole seven book series that may be due to the fact that it has a lot more story to tell in a future book and thus feels a touch unfinished.
The narrator drove me bananas listening to this though as they used a German pronunciation of the word titan saying it as tee-taan instead of the English variation that I'm used said as tie-tan. The word is from Greek mythology and I've only heard that odd pronunciation a couple times in my life and for some reason it really grated on my nerves. Also the narrator is still quite flat with the different character voices getting me confused a bit with characters from the first audio-book (Dragonwing) book in the series where he used the same voices for other cast that I know will be in later books together.
Still the story is strong and sets up really interesting things to come in future books to look forward to.

Weis & Hickman do it again
Any author can surprise a reader, but it takes a great author to surprise a reader and make the story more interesting as a result, I'm paraphrasing someone who's paraphrasing someone else but the point stands. The surprise in this book made me want to listen to the next entry in the series right away. great fun!

Excellent sequel
While this book doesn't focus on the main characters as much, the world-building and story definitely should not be missed.
