Summary
The legacy of Mari and Alain blazes ahead in this brand-new sequel to the hit Audible original series The Pillars of Reality.
The world of Dematr had been locked unchanging for centuries by the Great Guilds, most people living in a world of oil lamps, crossbows, and horse cavalry, the Mechanics reserving to themselves the technology for steam locomotives, rifles, and far-talkers while the Mages treated all others as if they were nothing - until Master Mechanic Mari, dragon slayer and pirate queen, and Master of Mages Alain raised the army of the new day to free their world.
Kira of Pacta Servanda, the daughter of the two greatest heroes of her world, was six years old the day she stood on a battlement in Dorcastle, staring up at a statue of her mother while surrounded by bodyguards who fenced Kira off from the nearby crowds. As the morning sun cast the shadow of Mari's statue over Kira, she realized that she would spend the rest of her life in that shade. Then the world of Dematr learned that a new kind of ship had left the far-distant world of Urth. The ship would take only 10 years to cover the immense distances between stars. Of all the colony worlds, the ship was coming to Dematr. But for what purpose? Kira was 16 when the ship from Urth arrived, and she discovered that her world still needed heroes.

Brilliant
I loved all the pillars of reality books and this book is no different, it's well written and action packed and the main characters are the daughter of the daughter, (a brilliant mix of her parents) finding herself and her hidden inner abilities ,and a teenage urth boy ,who finds himself with the aid of a worthy quest to save billions of lives and the adventure of his life with the most amazing girl he has ever met .
I'm not going to give any of the plot away, I will simply say, yes it must be read or listened to, loose yourself in the world of Demater, you won't regret it ......enjoy!

Great
I thoroughly enjoyed this story of a clash of cultures, attempted exploitation, honour and intrigue. After a marathon listen I'm already starting book 2.

will I listen to the next one?
probably. cringeworthingly cheesy at some points and very thin on details/history. but well performed and a fair story. probably better for teenagers (which I am sadly not). if the future books filled in the history and added a bit of depth to the plot it could be a really good story.

good read
As good as the original series. Highly recommended and I would also highly recommend the original series. Not steam punk but set in an age of steam.

Definitely a YA book but enjoyable nonetheless
An original premise, I enjoyed this book and bought the 2nd in the series. Our 16yr old heroine can be annoying (poor Jason) but once we got over the no contact, I get it, I get it, the story is fine and worth a read.

Loved It
What brought the story to live was the vibrant world which this book is set and the narrator, I won't spoil to much but it is definitely worth the listen.

Instantly buying book 2
Engaging story with only a few chiche moments. You get so involved with the characters you don't want to stop listening. I've been listening while doing the garden, and the garden has never looked better. Thank you
