Summary

When Balagir awakens at the fire with no recollection of his past, he discovers he is an ashen - a mysterious group of black-eyed vagabonds addicted to the smoke they must pay the ghostly piper in exchange for power.

With the help of the kalaqai (a sentient spark) and a band of nefarious companions, Balagir will have to traverse the northern wilds, cross seas, and survive foreign wars if he is to discover the truth behind the Ashen Levels.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A dark, yet fabulous tale!

A dark, yet fabulous tale about a man called Balagir, this story begins as he awakens without memory of his past. Balagir is forced to go through trials and riddles, one more dangerous than the next as he tries to uncover what has happened to him.

Written in most exquisite prose, this tale is expertly told. The book gives off an intriguing and creepy, almost fairytale-like, feel (the old kind, mind you), which I found highly entertaining. Everywhere Balagir turns, there is a challenged he must face, and it is absolutely fantastic!

And what a satisfying ending to an otherwise great series! The threads weaved throughout this story are flawless, and how it all comes together at the end is expertly done. I loved the conclusion!

I cannot recommend this enough, for I've absolutely devoured this series listening to the audiobooks! I feel empty now, knowing Balagir won't be joining me in my day-to-day life. The narration done by Jez Jameson leaves me wanting for more on its own, let alone the fabulous story CF Welburn has penned here!

Fantastic world-building, great characters, superbly merged GameLit elements, intriguing mysteries, and great action! I cannot stress enough how great this series is. Just buy it already!

The Elusive Smoke.

One of the best series I've read this year. Amazing worldbuilding, plot and setting. A dark world to emerse yourself to get lost for awhile and just enjoy the unfortunate Balagir's tale of woe and to find his life's meaning, Fabulous prose, CF Welburn's writing is so good. You will not want to put this down, Jez Jameson gives a great preformence and brings this beautifully written story to life, highly recommend..😁
