I hung on through the first book and tried the second, where again it started kind of interesting and then things started dragging, followed by some action that made little sense. After the initial mystery was concluded fairly early on, though, the story became staler and the bunny-people became less believable with less interesting (and mostly predictable) things to do.

Sure, the people in this world were probably descended from bunnies since every character that has a name in the series is mindlessly horny all the time, but at least there was a good mystery to catch my interest. This listening experience started out well the voice acting is very good, and there was an imaginative world plus a sorcery-driven murder mystery. I made it about halfway through this complete series before I realized I had no motivation to continue the story. The fate of empire is to crumble from within. When all is at stake, can she call upon an arcane craft the rest of the world has forgotten? Driven by a mad prophecy, her mentor has prepared her for a battle with ultimate darkness, except, sorcery is dead. She’s apprenticed to a priest-assassin that no one knows. Samantha serves a Church that claims to no longer need her skills. When faced with the truth, will he sacrifice what is necessary to survive?

As the investigation leads to deeper and darker places, he’ll be forced to confront the horrific spectres rising from the shadows of his past.

For Crown and Company, though, he goes where he’s told. Twisting threads of clues lead across the known world to the end of a vast empire, and then, the trail returns home.ĭuke Oliver Wellesley, son of the king, cartographer, and adventurer, has better things to do than investigate a murder in a sleepy fishing hamlet. Evidence of an occult ritual and human sacrifice proves that dark power has been called upon again.

Sorcery, once thought dead in Enhover, is not. The fate of empire is to crumble from within.Ī heinous murder in a small village reveals a terrible truth. A pair of unlikely investigators walk a dangerous path into the past, uncovering secrets best left alone in this dark, fantasy thriller. This set includes all three books in AC Cobble's Cartographer Series.
