About this audiobook
John Arminger Mackenzie wanted to be a troubadour, but fate made him the son of the king of Montival. His sister Princess Orlaith will deservedly inherit the throne of the High Kings, and it will only pass unto him in the event of her death, leaving the young Prince on an unknown path to discover his true role in the family. The opportunity to prove his mettle comes when John's ship, the Tarshish Queen, is caught in the fierce storm raised against the enemies of the alliance. When the clouds recede and the skies clear, John and his crew find themselves on the other side of the Pacific, in the island chains of the Ceram Sea, fighting to survive against vicious pirates and monstrous creatures of the deep, meeting new allies and mysterious enemies of this world and another. Now, Prince John must seize his birthright and lead his people in battle against the darkest forces man and nature can conjure against them.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Huge cliffhanger at the end. If you hate being left hanging, I'd suggest waiting until the next volume comes out.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Another excellent chapter in this outstanding series John Mackenzie, an erstwhile troubadour, becomes entangled in his princely duties for the Kingdom of Montivale. Unlike his sister, he lacks a magic sword but slides nicely, if not willingly, into his expected role as a war leader. Demonic Koreans, yes even then, ship killing crocodiles and troll-like creatures led by a masked man provide many challenges still to be overcome. Looking forward to the next episode.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Stirling has successfully brought the Change into a next generation and onto another continent. I've enjoyed how this book incorporates several leadership concepts, typically conveyed as best practices the descendants have learned from their royal parents.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I found this difficult to read until the last 1/3-1/5, just not much interesting going on.
