Historia
Jewel ATerafin has never wanted to be a power, but to protect what she built, to protect what she values above all else, she has accepted that power is necessary. But with power comes responsibility. Jewel has forced herself to do what would have once been unthinkable: She has surrendered her den-kin, Carver, to the wilderness, because she must if she is to have any hope of saving the rest of her family, and the city in which they dwell. But she cannot leave him with nothing. Into his hands, she has placed the single, blue leaf that came from the wilderness and the dreaming combined.

As always a fantastic story and narrator pairing.
Revisado: 04-28-19
Eva Wilhelm does an impressive job delivering the fantastic vision of Michelle West/Sagara flawlessly. Ms. Wilhelm's ability to bring forth the many voices and diverse personalities is at times awe inspiring. The story itself is fantastic, bitter sweet, and moving. Full of dramatic intrigue, comedic moments, and all the things that make a story worthwhile. Prepare yourself for a true vision of the past, present and future of this amazing world, and brace yourself for the epilogue, it's a knife in the heart, will bring tears to your eyes, all while lighting the kindle of hope in your soul for what's coming in the next book.

Historia
Times are truly desperate within Averalaan's hundred holdings, and Jewel MArkess and her den are finding it hard to survive. Then suddenly their mentor, Rath, orders them to avoid the ancient Undercity beneath Averlaan's streets, cutting them off from their main source of income. Yet Rath himself refuses to heed the warnings of Jewel's seer dreams. Instead, he allies with the mages of the Order of Knowledge in a secret war against demonic foes, knowing he'll be targeted for death - or worse.

A powerful story about choices and facing grief.
Revisado: 09-05-17
This second book focuses on grief, choices, and most of all hope. It tells the story of how Jewel came to leave the holdings. It explains what she lost along the way and helps to explain how those loses shaped the woman she will become. Most of all though it explored the different ways we all grieve and how that grief manifests in others. Allowing each character to express their loss without condemning it, but allowing us each to accept it and recognize it for what it is. A powerful example of acceptance and understanding in any world, even one darkened by the shadows of demons walking the street.

Powerful Opening to an epic story
Revisado: 09-01-17
This is the first in a fantastic series written by the brilliant Michelle West (Sagara). Robert Jordan, and George R.R. Martin have nothing on the captivating prose written in this series. The story isn't just fantasy, it's a coming of age, hope for the future, epic fantasy adventure. You'll fall in love with the various characters, all of which play a role in the life of the central character Jewel 'Jay' Markess. After the 3rd book you'll have to pick up and read the Sun Sword series to maintain the chronological timeline if you want, and while it isn't available via audio book it's also an amazing series where everything falls into place in a phenomenal way. I've read / listened to the series 4 times now and am still discovering hidden details that I love.

Whoever is first to solve them will inherit his vast fortune—and control of the OASIS itself.

Amazingly good time
Revisado: 08-29-17
Will Wheton does a fantastic job delivering a great story, his inflection, attitude and bearing all play perfectly into the presentation of the story. I keep coming back to this book and listening to it again and again because of the great performance of the narrator, and enjoyable story. If you grew up in the 80s or 90s you'll love the nostalgic nods to a bygone age, while presenting a very relevant discussion of where the world could be headed.
