Story
Thomas Ward is the seventh son of a seventh son, and apprentice to the local Spook. He has battled boggarts, witches, and the most powerful evils of the Dark. But his most trying task is yet to come. When Tom and the Spook are deceived by one they trust, they find themselves in the most terrifying danger yet. Blood-hungry creatures have invaded a sleepy village. Tom can save the Spook - and the whole county - but only by betraying one of his greatest allies. With everything on the line, Tom must have the courage to stand and fight, and to face a choice that could break his heart.

They are outcasts. Hal, Stig, and the others - they are the boys the others want no part of. Skandians, as any reader of Ranger's Apprentice could tell you, are known for their size and strength. Not these boys. Yet that doesn't mean they don't have skills. And courage - which they will need every ounce of to do battle at sea against the other bands, the Wolves and the Sharks, in the ultimate race. The icy waters make for a treacherous playing field - especially when not everyone thinks of it as playing.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Why we think it’s a great listen: How do you one-up a book that’s already a global literary phenomenon? Hire Simon Vance to (flawlessly) interpret the loves, lives, and murders of Sweden’s cold and secret-filled world. A spellbinding amalgam of murder mystery, family saga, love story, and financial intrigue. It's about the disappearance 40 years ago of Harriet Vanger, a young scion of one of the wealthiest families in Sweden.

Excellent divergence from the main storyline
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I love this whole series and can't wait for the next installment. This one was particularly interested because it follows Grimalkin instead of the main character Thomas Ward. It takes place right in line with the series. It picks Grimalkin up at a point right after Book 8. I love having the look into her psyche and a bit of her history. In fact, I would've loved if this book gave a lot more of her story than what was offered. I was very much left wanting to hear more about her. I want a volume 2! :)
If you are just starting, this book doesn't entirely work as a stand alone. It's best if you start at the beginning of the series.

Exiting and Fun
This is a book that many of us "followers" have been waiting for. This book takes you on the other side of the light. Grimalkin's story is an exiting adventure. You as a listener get to root for the Darker side this time. Grimalkin fights against the Dark w/ her magic and all her skills. She takes on an apprentice of her own to help her fight off the Dark that is trying to take back the head of the Fiend and reunite it w/ his body. Grimalkin finaly cant do it all on her own and needs to enlist the help of Alice. Tom sits this one out. Its only Alice that joins up w/ Grimalkin from the "clan". This time Alice has to dig deep into herself and pull out magic that not even she knew she had. This may be the turning point for Alice...
Total enjoyment from start to finish!! Only bad part is that I wish it went on more than it does.

I love this series and love all the books. This book offered a look into the life and times of the witch assassin Grimalkin, while following up to present day. It was an interesting choice for the author to write it from the first person perspective as Grimalkin. it was a tough book to get through. Insightful.

Rushed ending
Story had a good, descriptive, pace through the majority. the end seemed rushed and was skipped through only emphasizing key story points with few descriptions. This creates a recognizable let down.
