Sorrow's Meadow

Tears of Winter, Book 3

By: Kingsley Khan

Narrated by: Renée Nolen, Alfie Syme

Tristan must flee south, away from the battle against the Arctic Lindworm’s Skada. Behind him the battle for the Iron Duchy, Ahead the Meadow Duchy, with a fleeting promise of sanctuary, for those now forced to wander.

They are refugees, scattered amongst the tide of fate.

But the Lindworm’s rage has unleashed more than destruction. From their mountain home the goblins spill, a plague, their forms twisted by a new darkness, corrupted and made worse by something older, something strange.

What was horrible before is now grotesque, a twisted threat rending mind and soul.

Sanctuary doesn’t come free. Credits must be spent, blood must be spilled. The ground they seek to claim may offer rest, but only after it has tasted enough violence to be sated. Peace, if it can be found at all, will be bought at a steep price.

best of the series

better narration, story finally reached it greater arc. looking forward to the continuation of the series

The author completely lost the plot

So I’m only 1/2 through this book and I might end of giving up the author completely lost the plot and nothing makes sense. 1 the performance randomly repeats lines or the wrong voice actor does it. 2 the story is completely away from the premise that was established in book one and seems like author wrote these years apart and just forgot what the author stories were about. 3 the spicy scenes are extremely repetitive the author never includes any of the different girls and just recycles the same scenes over and over with the main 3 girls. 4 the author completely disregards shop purchases and it makes no sense in book 2 the MC bout his constitution high enough to not really feel the cold yet in this book there is pages of characters suffering from it, and top of the MC having superhuman stats yet at every turn struggles to do anything that should be a breeze for him. 5 the point is repeatedly raised that oh guns are no longer effective we must switch to melee or magic yet every single fight is constantly a gun fight makes no sense. 6 genuinely the story just got so repetitive for almost 3 hrs of the story it is them crying and moaning about living in a quarry and how they must make it better and top of that the Mc is constantly in charge for actually 0 reason there are multiple high level military officers yet random McGee is the leader even though he has not done anything useful

cop out

the story was already fairly rough. this story is like eating junk food. sometime one craves it, then you get a tastey bit and it great, until you keep going. felt like I finished a costco bag with this book. the story is like a manic crazed dude that treats resources like they renewable and people like they are 1 dimensional. really struggled to finish which is the amount of experience this author must have while raging at the women who don't want them.
