The Servants of the Storm

The Storm threatening to unmake the world of Dematr is growing beyond anything its enemies can contain, and Mari must lead her army while Alain fights alongside her, the two of them pitted against the combined power of the Great Guilds and the Servants who profit from the old order. Jack Campbell's fifth Pillars of Reality novel brings the series' central conflict toward resolution, raising the personal and civilizational stakes simultaneously as Mari and Alain realize that winning may cost them everything that makes victory meaningful.

MacLeod Andrews narrates his own role in the story and performs the full cast with the energy and differentiation the series has always required. His voice gives Mari's determination and Alain's quieter strength their appropriate registers, and his handling of the battle sequences captures their scale without losing track of the individual characters within them. At just under twelve hours, The Servants of the Storm rewards series readers who have followed the journey from the beginning.
