Now that was a great short story with all sorts of resonances and foreshadowings.

Another good short story from the world of Lyra Silvertounge. Not as good as the previous one I listened to (Serpentine) in as much as I don’t think it really progressed/helped me to understand the general storylines of the two trilogies. It was still a very engaging story though, and much more dramatic than Serpentine. So still a good read and very enjoyable, but not quite as good as Serpentine in my opinion!

Interesting story that feels like it's going somewhere, and now I've got more questions!

I'm pretty sure I've read this. It's really short though.
