Ghost in the Surge

The Ghosts, Book 9

By: Jonathan Moeller

Narrated by: Hollis McCarthy

Caina Amalas is a nightfighter of the Ghosts, one of the elite agents of the Emperor of Nighmar. She has defeated powerful sorcerers and corrupt lords, freed slaves, and overthrown great evils.

But now, someone has begun slaughtering the Ghosts of the Imperial capital, and the killer is wearing her face.

And this time, saving the Empire might cost her everything....

Ark is a man of many roles - father and husband, Ghost and veteran, blacksmith and Champion of Marsis.

But when the circlemasters of the Ghosts order him to hunt down the renegade Caina Amalas, Ark must make a choice between his family and the woman who saved his life and children....

The Moroaica is the ancient sorceress of legend and terror, and after 2,000 years of toil, she is ready. She shall destroy the world and remake it in a better image, ending suffering and pain forever. She will rip open a gate to the heavens, cast down the gods from their thrones, and make them pay for all the suffering of mankind.

Or so she thinks....

Great narration, but not much else

A drawn out, weak ending of the series full of the usual cannon foder and incomoetent bad guys.
I will fall of my chair if Moeller ever creates a single bad guy that DOESN'T stop to talk for half an hour before every single fight, and that DOESN'T threaten to kill someone in front of someone else.

SPOILER!

Does anyone understand how the Moroaica managed to get a hold of Ranarius' heart in Cyrioc before his spirit crossed "beyond", while she was trapped inside Caina? He was also turned to stone and shattered into thousands of pieces, so there shouldn't have been a heart left.
