Sold into slavery by his own parents at the age of seven, Aidan has spent his life enduring tortuous training in the arts of war. Now a man, he is an assassin in the service of his king. He kills whoever the king wants dead without question, regret, or concern for his own life.

But when another assassin targets the king's daughter, Aidan's path to protect her will lead him down a dark road of corruption. As he struggles with his duty and his conscience, Aidan finds himself falling in love with the person he is supposed to protect and falling away from his commitment to his king.

Dark and Gripping

There is a lot of action with some romance. It's a fun listen, highly recommend giving it a go.

Great narration and story!

This was a great audiobook! The narrator did amazing with each voice, and he gave Aiden such depth and emotion. I really enjoyed the story and message too. The romance had some cliche lines and moments, but otherwise, it was a meaningful and exciting book. I love that it teaches anyone can choose good or evil and that no one is too ffar gone for God to love and want.

Interesting listen that is kinda dark.

The main character is pretty dark. It was an interesting story, but I found it difficult to have empathy for the main character. I am guessing the author was trying to portray him as a tragic hero. I did not find anything redeeming about him. Hopefully this turns around in the next book.
