Summary
A lord forsaken by the gods. A mysterious woman with many secrets. A kingdom on the brink of war....
Two thousand years after the ancient Kingdom of Alekka was torn in two, disgruntled gods are taking sides, seeking a reckoning, for order can only last so long before chaos returns to claim its rightful place. The dreamers see what is coming.
They warn of a threat greater than any other, raising fears of unimaginable death and destruction, and a winter colder than any that has come before. The king’s enemies are rising, emboldened by his waning power, spurred on by his troubles.
Though Reinar Vilander, Lord of Ottby, only sees what lies before him, which is an undermanned fort and empty coffers. His father is an invalid, his wife has gone, his sons are dead, his fort is vulnerable, and as winter approaches, he doesn’t know what to do. For he has run out of luck. And without the luck of the gods, no lord can hope to rule for long.
And a desperate man tends to make bad choices...very bad choices, which is bad news for Alys de Sant, whose life will forever be changed on the fateful day they meet.
Eye of the Wolf is the first book in The Lords of Alekka, a thrilling new fantasy series set in the world of The Furyck Saga. Enter a kingdom in turmoil, where mysterious dreamers weave dark magic around vengeful lords, and those fated to rise are forced out of the shadows as the battle to claim the throne begins.

An epic fantasy, fantastically narrated by Kate
The story has a lot going on. Lots of characters, side stories/plots that I wasn't sure were relevant to the overall plot. But I have to say, I got absolutely sucked in! The narration helps with this. Kate Reading is bloody phenomenal, she nails this piece 100%. I have heard her older work in another book series and her voice has matured like great cheese :). it's a great book which I have now finished and as soon as I hit submit, I'll be starting book 2. Highly recommend if you like vikings, magic and great fantasy.
PS. I have read the Furyck Saga (previous book series) and whilst knowledge of the world helps, I don't think it's a necessary read to enjoy Lords of Alekka.

Confusing
I am sorry but very hard to follow. Naming everyone and everything under the sun. Characters who were there for 5 sec I feel like even the goats had names. I had to give up as it was a very confusing experience. Hard to follow the story definitely not continuing with this.
I hope others have better luck and find sense in it.

Poor narration.
Unfortunately I find the intonation of the narrator's voice very confusing making it difficult for me to enjoy this particular audio book. I fear it will be the same for the series 😔
