THE CITY OF DUSK by Tara Sim, read by Nikki Patel - audiobook extract
The City of Dusk is the first in a dark epic fantasy trilogy that follows the four heirs of four noble houses - each gifted with a divine power - as they form a tenuous alliance to keep their kingdom from descending into a realm-shattering war.\n\nThe Four Realms - Life, Death, Light, and Darkness - all converge on the city of dusk. For each realm there is a god, and for each god there is an heir.\n\nBut the gods have withdrawn their favour from the once vibrant and thriving city. And without it, all the realms are dying.\n\nUnwilling to stand by and watch the destruction, the four heirs - Risha, a necromancer struggling to keep the peace; Angelica, an elementalist with her eyes set on the throne; Taesia, a shadow-wielding rogue with rebellion in her heart; and Nik, a soldier who struggles to see the light - will sacrifice everything to save the city.\n\nBut their defiance will cost them dearly.
