Good but start with book 1 if you can

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Going into this book, I had no idea this was the 2nd book in a series. For some reason, Audible doesn’t list these books (The Heir to the North and The High King’s Vengeance) as a series. That being said, I was a little lost at first. I wasn’t sure what was going on and why. The author does an OK job on referencing things from the first book that I eventually figured things out and was able to enjoy the book more fully. The narration was pretty good and the story, once I understood what was going on, was really well done. In summary, you should probably start with The Heir to the North first, but if you pay attention, you can also do alright with this book alone. I wouldn’t go back for the first book after listening to this one, though, because I now know how the series ends.
