Publisher's summary

In order to reclaim her throne and save her people, an ousted queen must join forces with a young warrior in the second book of this "relentlessly gripping, brilliant" epic fantasy series from a breakout author (James Islington).

Tau and his Queen, desperate to delay the impending attack on the capital by the indigenous people of Xidda, craft a dangerous plan. If Tau succeeds, the Queen will have the time she needs to assemble her forces and launch an all out assault on her own capital city, where her sister is being propped up as the "true" Queen of the Omehi.

If the city can be taken, if Tsiora can reclaim her throne, and if she can reunite her people then the Omehi have a chance to survive the onslaught.

A Grimdark novel with few inspiring characters

Evan Winter continues craft an emotionally-charged tale of warring factions who will stop at nothing to defeat their adversaries. The MC, Tau, ostensibly is leading warriors into battle in order to win the right for equality in their kingdom. His martial skills are unmatched due to his fighting in the shadow realm where he has honed them fending off demons who are drawn to kill their female-gifted battle mages. However, he himself is consumed with rage and bloodlust that he loses sight of what it means at being human and commits unspeakable brutal travesties as he fights for his queen. Then we have the two queens who use the gifted warriors in mimicking the voices of child dragons waling in fear to incite the adult dragons to bring down hell fire on their opponents, fire so intense that it indiscriminately incinerates hundreds with every fiery exhalation. This is a story where no side can justifiably claim that it was a just war. Prentice Onayemi once again provides an excellent permance of this dark, gruesome and sad story.

Better than the first

While I enjoyed the Rage of Dragons, I liked Fires of Vengeance much more. The world building set up in the first book starts to have some really cool payouts, and the characters are much more interesting. Really excited for what comes next.

Absolutely enthralling!

I’ll pause in listening to just about any author to listen to Mr Winter’s stories.

A great continuation of a great story

This story and world really drew me in. The characters are written with the grey areas that all humans seem to have, (you are a villain in someone story). Love the performance of the narrator. Good job to all involved with this production. I'm looking forward to hearing the next book.

Dang

I seldom care for dedications. But in this book, the author has captured my attention and heart from even those first words. I rarely find that sequels live up to the original. This one may just surpass it.
