About this listen

Every heart is meant to break.

THE NAMELESS. As a warden, Soren’s duty is to guard against the dead, but he was never trained to guard against his heart. Drawn into a web of Solarian politics, Soren finds himself at the center of a storm of his own making, unwilling to break free if it means losing the man he loves. But even the darkest secrets cannot remain hidden forever, and when lies come to light, the price he pays for his silence may very well be his undoing.

THE EMPEROR. When his claim to the Imperial throne is challenged by a traitorous House, Vanya Sa’Liandel must adhere to the ancient tradition of the Conclave to stay in power. Refusing to face his peers alone, Vanya will stand before the Houses of Solaria with Soren by his side, a decision that risks his heart when an unspeakable betrayal threatens everything he’s fought for.

THE REBEL. With her entire world upended, Caris Dhemlan is on the run, struggling to come to terms with the truth of her heritage. As the Clockwork Brigade is targeted by Daijal, she must fight to save the people she cares about. Every rebellion needs a figurehead, but Caris is determined not to become a martyr.

THE QUEEN. With a crown claimed, Eimarille Rourke sets her sights on Ashion and the continent beyond her country’s borders. Promised a world by a star god, Eimarille sets into motion the gears of war and launches the opening salvo of a battle whose repercussions will ripple across the whole of Maricol.

Her worldbuilding goes above and beyond; you can imagine yourself amongst the drama living with the Clockwork Brigade or any other group.

During this book, there is little romance as Hailey has taken the time to set up the series, from the war and the saving of Princess Caris, then jumping 15 years to when she is old enough to become involved in society.
We pick up the saga now that Caris is older and the war has worsened. Lots of lives have been lost.
There is a beautiful romance between Emperor Vanya and Warden Soren, although it really shouldn't happen.
This is an epic chapter to the story at over 16 hours, but it keeps you captivated from start to finish. Well worth reading/listening to.

Gary Furlong tells the story well; his ability to do all the voices is incredible. It completed the audio experience.

This series is simply epic! It's a steampunk fantasy, with magical and technological elements, and several LGBTQ+ characters. The world-building is incredible, and the characters are complex and compelling. The plot is filled with subterfuge, plotting, and political machinations and maneuvering; surprises, hidden identities and backgrounds, twists, and turns; fast-paced action and never-a-dull-moment storylines. You never know who is friend or who is foe, if the people you think can be trusted really can be, or if you are headed for a nasty surprise. The author certainly likes to put her characters through he** and you may find yourself yelling at her sometimes (or at least wanting to) as you read/listen. The story is intense, emotional, and heart-wrenching, sometimes, but when you reach the end, you will immediately demand "Where is the next book?" At least, I did. Cliffhanger ending? Of course it is, and I am eagerly and impatiently waiting for the next book.

The narration by Gary Furlong is simply amazing! He does such an incredible job providing different voices for every character, and he keep each one's persona and personality consistent throughout. He adds an additional level of pleasure to the story. I am always amazed at how effortlessly and flawlessly he pronounces all the character and place names. Much better than I manage (in my mind) while I am reading! As I listen to his narration, I often think, 'Oh, so that's what it's supposed to sound like.' LOL

Good follow up to book one. The characters have developed further, as has the world building. I loved the growing trust between Vanya and Soren. Exciting and full of action, with a few twists and turns. The ending's ever so slightly 'cliffhangerish,' but sets the next book up nicely. Gary Furlong is a first class narrator, he really brings the story/characters life.

Well narrated by Gary Furlong.

Hailey Turner books always have a lot going on – some are mini-epics and some are massive epics. This book, and the series it comes from, fall under the massive epic end of the spectrum. Clocking in at well over sixteen hours with multiple points of view, huge sweeping political intrigues, and with a backdrop of steampunk, this book has a bit of everything.

I’m not going to try to summarize it – that would be impossible. I will say you should probably have read book one and polished off your memory before hitting book two. For me, book one had such an impact that even though I listened to it last summer, I remembered much of it and was quickly able to sink into this new book. I freaking loved it.

The book ends on an absolute cliffhanger and knowing how long these books take to write, I’m going to have to be patient – something I’m not known for. But I’m sure Hailey will make it worth the wait and the next book will be phenomenal. I’m curious to see if she wraps everything up in a trilogy or if she pushes on like she did in her Soulbound and Metahuman series.

This is a great story. Gary Furlong does a superb job of narrating the epic and I’m always thrilled to see his name attached to any project. I’m waiting Hailey…as patiently as I can.

Just…wow…
