Acerca de esta escucha

Long ago the world fell into twilight, when the great empires of old consumed each other in sorcerous cataclysms. In the south the Star Towers fell, swallowed by the sea, while the black glaciers descended upon the northern holdfasts, entombing the cities of Min-Ceruth in ice and sorcery. Then from the ancient empire of Menekar the paladins of Ama came, putting every surviving sorcerer to the sword and cleansing their taint from the land for the radiant glory of their lord.

The pulse of magic slowed, fading like the heartbeat of a dying man.

But after a thousand years it has begun to quicken again.

In a small fishing village a boy with strange powers comes of age....

A young queen rises in the west, fanning the long-smoldering embers of magic into a blaze once more....

Something of great importance is stolen - or freed - from the mysterious Empire of Swords and Flowers....

And the immortals who survived the ancient cataclysms bestir themselves, casting about for why the world is suddenly changing....

brilliantly narrated by Guy Williams. Recommended for lovers of fantasy all ages, hopefully 16 year old Kaden becomes more gutsy

Top ranking enjoyable fantasy

There is a LOT of tell and don't show in this book, combined with pages of info dumps, which makes it kinda hard to pay attention at points. It also seems to make it much longer than it needs to be. Still a decent book though and probably will read the next 2 at some point. The narrator is terrible. He will read description of places/things at lightspeed, then slow down the dialogue. I kept having to rewind to hear what was happening.

Wish it was a 3rd or 6th draft instead of a 1st.

I loved this book. It took a couple of chapters to get familiar with all the characters, but after I Did, I couldn't stop listening. I hope there is a sequel in the works.

Great story

I really enjoyed the story, but not the narrator. I think I would have like it more had I read it myself.

Good book, but boring narrator.

Overall a good listen. The narrator is amazing, but the story takes a long time to get going. After about halfway through the book I was hooked, and the finish was really well written. Going to listen to the second in the trilogy now

Slow start. Strong finish

That's how I was drawn into reading this title. I was on the website of an author I enjoy, and he had written a review on this book. He said "If you have not read Crimson Queen yet, then stop what you are doing, do yourself a favor and read this book." I took his advice and was not disappointed. People that are leaving this title negative reviews baffle me. I have a degree in literature and writing, and go through about a novel a week, and this was one of my favorite titles of 2017. A true epic, multiple viewpoints, all sewn together well in the end. Beautifully done. I have been checking every couple of months for the sequel to come out and now that is has I cannot be happier. READ THIS BOOK!

Stop what you are doing and read this.

The first part of the novel comes across as a coming-of-age story in a kingdom that has a religious fanaticism to purge all people who displayed any signs of sorcery. Alec Hutson does an excellent job in keeping the major players identities and motivations hidden or not fully known for two thirds of the book while continuing to add more context and secondary and tertiary characters as the story continues. There are several references to the Crimson Queen and she does eventually play a critical role, however, not much backstory is provided on her even as her story arc finally becomes known.

While I enjoyed this book, I felt at times the author spend an inordinate amount of time on mundane matters of environment, clothing, dining, &c. which tended to slow the tempo of the story.

Guy Williams did a superb job narrating and was very good at differentiating the various gender roles along with distinctive accents for regional characters.

Onto book 2.

Really enjoyed this
