Publisher's Summary
The country is in turmoil. With the capital city occupied, half a million refugees are on the march, looking for safety on the frontier, accompanied by Lady Flint's soldiers. But escaping war is never easy, and soon the battle may find them, whether they are prepared or not.
Back in the capital, Michel Bravis smuggles even more refugees out of the city. But internal forces are working against him. With enemies on all sides, Michel may be forced to find help with the very occupiers he's trying to undermine.
Meanwhile, Ben Styke is building his own army. He and his mad lancers are gathering every able body they can find and searching for an ancient artifact that may have the power to turn the tides of war in their favor. But what they find may not be what they're looking for.

Can't wait for the third book.
Loved it. My only niggle would be Christian Rodska's voice for Beau makes a 30ish man sound like Winston Churchill!

Loved it
This series keeps on giving. The story is unfolding well, the characters are developing as distinct individuals, and I am always looking forward to what happens next. Sometimes middle books in a trilogy can feel a bit slow and unfulfilling but I found it flowed well with the story and I can't wait to dive into the final book.
Narration is too level, Rodska continues to deliver as he has previously and it is much appreciated!

To re-quote Sanderson "Just plain Awesome"
Another amazing addition to the series, quickly becoming one of my favorites.
For those looking for the darker side of Fantasy, this book has it all. War torn land, non stop battles, quick paced plot and interesting magic.
Narration is also very well done.

This and the previous book kept me on the edge of my seat. It’s for anyone that’s looking for a great story that doesn’t mind a bit of violence. I have hundreds of audible books in my library and this is one of the better series.

great story, riveting
I found some of the voices of the narration a bit over the top. Sometimes the accents were barely understandable.
The story was great though, better than the 1st book.
