Summary

A deadly venom. A looming rebellion. A vicious siege. And the clock is ticking.

For sorcerer Nate Garrett, the stakes have risen. If Asgard falls, he may lose much more than his home - he may lose the thing dearest to him. To stand a fighting chance against Avalon, he must be ready to go to war. But when his best friend and father are poisoned, Nate must race against the clock in a desperate quest to find a cure.

Layla Cassidy is tasked with gaining the aid of the Valkyrie in Valhalla, but once there, she finds herself involved in another rebellion and must pick a side.

Meanwhile, Mordred finds himself on a hunt for Excalibur, a weapon of incredible power that would aid the rebellion in their fight against Arthur and his allies. But to retrieve it, Mordred must face uncomfortable truths about himself.

War looms over the rebellion, and the battle for Asgard is at hand. Time is running out as Avalon's forces threaten total destruction. But Nate can't be in two places at once. Can he find the cure, and can he, Layla, and Mordred save the realms before it’s too late?

An emotional rollercoaster of a story, with high & lows for all the characters involved. I can’t wait for the rollercoaster to continue in the next book!

A rollercoaster ride for the reader

whoever it is that voices mordred can only do 3 female voices it's not a huge issue but when there are multiple female characters speaking next to each other you just cant tell the difference

the story is good but similar character voices

Please guys, seriously stop letting Ms Knowleden ruin any more books. She doesn’t know how to articulate her sentences, when She lists people who are working together on something it is particularly horrible.

Great story from book one. The characters are honest and believable. The progression the story takes you through, introducing new story lines and satisfactoraly ending others, keeps the narrative fresh and interesting. Baddies you love to hate, enemys that become friends. Strong ethical role models of all genders species and sexual orientations. What could be a very macho, "look at how cool this glock 17 with silver hollow tips, whilst I deal super manly death and destruction" set of books, it is open and accepting, and at its roots, upholds honesty, moral values and looking after those you love. (Whilst dealing death and destruction, with a glock 17 filled with hollow tip silver rounds) to those that stand in your way.

Great narration by all involved. A couple of mildy dodgy accents but believable all the same... Who am I to say what an ancient Mesopotamian sounded like....
Can't wait for the last book.

The penultimate story in a gripping tale.

Whilst Steve is a fantastic writer and I love his work this book felt somewhat lacking in places. it was as if the writer was not ready to push forward with the story but the publishers were insisted he did. Saying that the story do work better towards the end of the book and does still leave you wanting more. The naration while pretty decent is never the same if you change voices in the middle of the series and I miss the grittyness of James Langtons portrayal of Nate.
if you have kept up with the series you will know what I mean once you listen to this book

Not as great as previous books.
