Publisher's summary

The epic fantasy adventure begun in Sunshield races to its thrilling conclusion in this imaginative finale in which the fate of four extraordinary young people - and their nations - will be decided.

When their hopes for ending Moquoia's brutal system of bondage are crushed, unlikely allies Lark and Veran are forced to flee into the harsh desert. With no weapons or horses, they must make their way to safety across the 50-mile expanse of waterless plains known as the water scrape. It is an odyssey filled with unexpected dangers that challenge even a skilled outlaw like Lark - though the farther they travel, the more she wonders if she even fits the fearsome title of the Sunshield Bandit anymore.

Injured in the coup to overthrow the Moquoian monarchy, Tamsin, accompanied by Iano, retreat to a safe house, where they await the return of Lark and Veran. Determined to uncover the traitor in the court, they devise a plan to confront the new palace ashoki, Kimela.

Imperiled by wilderness and their own tenuous alliances, Lark, Tamsin, and Veran each face massive risks to uncover the truth. But even if they find it, will their combined forces be strong enough to stop the evil infecting their beautiful land...and transform it into a fairer society for all?

Great conclusion to an underrated series.

Back in 2020 I read the Woodwalker trilogy and Sunshield by Emily B. Martin. I had wanted to finish the Outlaw Road duology but I didn't want to buy the hardcover and it wasn't available at my library.

Fast forward to 2024 and I saw it available on a 2 for 1 Audible sale. I jumped at the chance to finish this series. I had to read some of my notes to refresh my memory. Also, as I listened the events, plot points, political stances, and character relationships came back to me. Floodpath does a good job recapping the events of Sunshield and does not weigh down the story.

I really loved how the characters developed on their own and in relation to each other. There was some suspense and action. Mistakes were made and lessons learned. The blackmail mystery was solved and everything was wrapped up well. Overall it was a satisfactory conclusion.

I also enjoyed the narrators' performances. Each one fit the personality of their character and I found it easy to follow the dialogue.

I would like to know why Ashes to Fire and Creatures of Light are not available on audiobook?

Returning to this realm was just as enjoyable, emotional, and adventurous as I remembered it. It's an underrated series and I wish it got more attention from fantasy readers. I'm going to keep it in mind when anyone asks me for a recommendations.
