Night of Flame

Steel and Fire, Book 5

De: Jordan Rivet

Narrado por: Caitlin Kelly

When the world is torn apart by magical violence, only a Wielder can save it.

As the Lantern Maker terrorizes the continent with his Fireworker army, Dara struggles to master her new powers in order to stop him. She doesn't know whether she can bring herself to destroy her father, but she's running out of alternatives - and the fiery devastation is getting worse. She'll have to make a final, terrible choice before the end.

Meanwhile, Siv musters a fighting force to retake his kingdom. His sister Selivia offers help in an unexpected form, but his new allies may not be as reliable as he thinks. Siv and Dara are drawn into a battle they didn't anticipate, and trusting the wrong people could cost them the war.

Back in Vertigon, Queen Sora learns of a new threat. Even if Siv, Dara, and Selivia make it back to the mountain, they could be too late to save it. As the four of them struggle to overcome the forces of violence, power, and ambition, they are swept toward a final conflict that will determine the fate of every land on the continent.

The only way to restore peace is through war - and even that might not be enough.

Lifelong lessons

Love Caitlin Kelly's Narration!

Caitlin Kelly is one of my favorite narrators, and she thrives narrating this series! I couldn't stop listening and binge-listened to the whole series in a matter of a week and a half!

Another Engrossing Story

I loved this story. The characters are strong and the story Engrossing. I couldn't wait to listen every spare moment I had.

Drug out too long

This final story could have gone a little faster. I felt like we kept hearing the same thing over and over again.

Disappointing end to a decent series. The performance is stellar.

This series of 5 books would have been a much better tightly edited trilogy. There are so many clumsy wandering plots that just drag on too long and give you whiplash. There are also some problematic character issues in the “good guys” - like the “king” whose overconfidence and irresponsibility keeps putting everyone around him in life threatening danger. Also Ton and tones of people die - and there is no grief. Cool magic and dragons and fighting should be enough but it all just feels random and pointless by the end.
