Resumen del Editor
A cataract of evil has fallen over the planet Varchal as its orbit enters the influence of Sol-Ar, stirring up tectonic upheavals called Black Hallows. As malignant rains fall on the Imperious Crescent, those who access these sites are transformed into shadows of shame.
Accession to the Donnephon throne at the age of 18 has thrust monumental responsibility on Tayem Fyreglance, queen of the Dragon Riders. Yet, there is a greater burden to bear. Her people labor under the yoke of a cruel Cuscosian Empire, and now, they threaten the noble lineage of dragons.
Tempted by the dark magical power of the Black Hallows, Tayem seeks to rise up against the House of Cuscosa. Her adversary - Etezora, Queen of Cuscosia - has already taken in the purple effervescence of Hallows power herself and used it to deal death on those who stand against her.
As this confrontation builds, the subterranean Kaldorans and pacifist Gigantes are drawn into the storm - one race influenced by mischievous intent, the other by a mysterious dream world. With the Hallows now on the ascendance, it becomes clear that there can be no winners save the Hallows itself, and if it prevails, then only chaos will remain.
Immerse yourself in a tale of epic fantasy, where kingdoms plummet toward a war fueled by avarice, greed, and the lust for power. Cradle of Darkness is the first novel in a series that chronicles the reign of the Black Hallows.

Historia
Fel'annár is a gifted immortal warrior embarking on his first patrol into the Deep Forest. Half-Silvan, half-Alpine, he battles the enemy from without, and the prejudice from within. But he learns more than just warfare when an arcane power begins to emerge, one he cannot control. While friendships are forged, a destiny unfolds, one that is tied to a past he knows nothing about. For others, though, it is only a matter of time before the truth is revealed, and the danger becomes real.

Historia
When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Centuries ago, the murder of a beloved king tore apart the Kingdom of Caledun. The land was plunged into chaos and thousands perished. A new order was established in an attempt to return Caledun to its former glory. It failed, but in its place rose the beginnings of the Code. During this same period, the mystical caretakers of the Great Wood retreated from the world of Kal Maran, their disappearance an ominous harbinger of the suffering that was to follow. The Great Wood now grows out of control. Cities, towns, and villages have fallen before the relentless march of the forest.

They are faster, stronger, and connected to the magical realm in a way that man could never grasp. Illian should belong to them.

You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

Their peace was a fragile thing, but it had endured for seven years, mostly because the people of Darassus and the king of the Naor hordes believed his doom was foretold upon the edge of the great sword hung in the hall of champions. Unruly Naor clans might raid across the border, but the king himself would never lead his people to war so long as the blade remained in the hands of his enemies. But when squire Elenai’s aging uncovers evidence that the sword in their hall is a forgery, she’s forced to flee Darassus for her life, her only ally the reckless, disillusioned Kyrkenall.

Shadows of Shame!
Wow, this is an amazing story with some amazing imagination. This is kind-of long and the world building takes some time, but if you can hang in there...it gets pretty good.. The Narration leaves a little to be desired but once again, if you can hang in there and get used to it, it gets better. There are so many ways to die or get turned into shadows of shame. I received this audio book for free in exchange for an unbiased review. Not bad! A little long.

A fun dark fantasy in an original setting
I received a free audio copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.
I like the idea that the story revolves around a planet that suffers tectonic upheavals due to its orbital alignment. These upheavals release (more) evil onto the world by means of Black Hallows (the series title). This affects different people in different ways, but the one significant effect is forcing everyone to look after themselves as war looms. Here’s my thoughts on the book:
This one is novel (as opposed to ‘A’ novel) due to the fact that it's narrated by the author. Sure, I’ve heard authors read chapters on podcasts, but not a full length audiobook. And you know what, he has another career if he ever gives up on the writing thing (which I hope he doesn’t). I didn’t like all his voices, but he was mostly top-notch, and very listenable
I mentioned how much I like the concept, and while it doesn’t quite veer into science fantasy, it’s a fun idea. It has the usual staples of fantasy - warring races, knights and other medieval warriors and a bunch of critters. These are quite unique, as Tom Adams’ critters tend to be, and the book does veer from the norm
The release of the Black Hallows brings a dark magic to the world, and many of the denizens strive to grasp it for their own ends, bu this tends to twist them even more. There’s also a mystery Dream World, that attracts the peace-loving Gigantes, but what it’s true purpose is won’t be revealed until later in the series
There aren’t a lot of negatives to the story. As I mentioned already, some of the voices I found annoying, but there are few audiobooks where I have liked all the accents. Also, despite the novel setting, this never really distances itself from the fantasy pack, and while it’s enjoyable, nothing constantly wows you throughout. This isn’t damning, but it could also potentially cause readers to not bother reading further in the series. I think it has potential though.
Verdict
A solid fantasy tale in a mostly original setting.

Busy, Busy
I struggled to finish this. It just was a little to busy and over complicated for me. That's on me, not the story.
On the other hand, the author also being the narrator, was clear and expressive. Makes a great storyteller.
This audio was given to me free and I voluntarily gave this review.
