Shadowrise

By Tad Williams
Shadowrise by Tad Williams digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A year ago, the March Kingdoms were at peace, the Eddon family held the throne, and all was right in Southmarch Castle. Now the family has been shattered. King Olin Eddon is a prisoner and his heir is slain. The royal twins Barrick and Briony have done their best to hold the kingdom together, but now Barrick has been captured and Briony has been forced to flee the castle. Old magics are stirring beneath the ancient castle and behind the Shadowline, and the machinations of gods, fairies, and mortals threaten to spread devastation across the entire world.

Anxious Face with sweat“Probably my favorite book in the series so far. The story is picking up tempo, some resolutions are starting to happen, there's a definite sense of upcoming doom. It still feels like there's so much that needs to happen and be explained so I'm excited to see how the final book will manage this task. Especially loved the character growth in this one and absolutely adore Chert and Opal ❤️”
Thumbs Up“This series is long to listen to with lots of different threads, different characters on different paths - it’s intricate plot weaving but for more at times it’s dragging. I’ve listened to the first 3 books - 89 hours approximately- (although I turned the speed up so it’s taken me a bit less than that). I’m finding some of the storylines more interesting than others which is probably why parts are dragging. I hope to get to the final part in about a week - I’m going to listen to a couple of shorter pieces before starting into the final book (approximately 33hours to go).”
