Publisher's Summary
Hamelin, a village separated from the rest of the world, has a deadly problem. Fierce, flying beasts ravage and cull the sparse human population, forcing Hamelins citizens to live within the safety of her boundaries. With no help in sight, the village leaders look to their god, the Provider, for salvation, and they unearth a chilling answer to their problem. The Tournament of the Kindred—a much-celebrated, barbaric event that pits four gladiators against each other in deadly combat.
Winning the Tournament brings rich rewards, fame, and glory to ones bloodline. Losing, however, results in a lethal trip to the Sacrificial Altar for you and all those who share your blood: man, woman, and child. The sacrifice is said to be a blood offering to the Provider for reprievea necessary evil for the greater good of all. Neven Oakfall, adolescent town historian and librarian, is chosen by random draw to fight for the survival of his bloodline.
After a life behind a desk, Neven must find the courage deep within himself to defeat his stronger opponents, for he discovers that much more than the lives of those he loves hangs in the balance. An evil lurks, waiting for its moment to deliver the death blow to the village, and Neven is all that stands in its way, whether he likes it or not.

100% recommended!
A very well written story that keeps you engaged since the beginning. The plot is different from other stories of this genre and at some degree it is also unpredictable.
I really liked that the character's stories and personalities were represented with enough detail to be able to get to know them and interpret their interactions without loosing pace along the story. The description of the scenes, world-building, use of magic and creatures were amazing! Loved the dark and fun tone of the story.
The narration was really good. The narrator's voice fits perfectly with this book. The variation of voices between characters was excellent. Would have preferred the main character's voice to be a bit different but it did not prevented me of enjoying the story!
Would definitely recommend this book.
Looking forward to listen and read the next one.
