ADVERTISEMENT {REVIEW}
I received this book as a review copy in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
The endless road and life of a monster-hunting Runer has gone stale for Tzarik and death is the only alternative. Tired of risking his life for the prejudiced people of Al’Myrah, it’s time to just let go. The only thing that stands in his way: A Runer cannot take his own life, breaking his oath to the dark magic that binds him to the hunt. When a warlord from the far east threatens her family, Sybal, a young diamond mine heiress with a lavish lifestyle, takes action to protect her family and estate. But when her crime is witnessed, she must stand trial for murder. To save her own life, Sybal calls for a trial by Runing—a dangerous and often fatal dark pact with unknown magic. Thrown together by law and dark magic oaths, Tzarik and Sybal find themselves entangled with an eldritch force when alone necromancer hell-bent on devastation, rises up, and ravages the eastern continents. Tzarik must conquer his desire for his own demise and train the empathic Sybal to save the people from a risen death.

When I first saw the gorgeous cover of The Trial Of Two: Season Of The Runer by Abigail Linhardt, I knew right away that I have to read this book! I think the cover is absolutely perfect for the story.
I have listened to the audiobook and first-off I have to say, the narrator did an incredible job here. His voice kept me enthralled with the story and he uses his voice perfectly to get the mood and pacing of the plot across to the listener.
That brings me to the plot itself. I found it to be very well thought through and fast-paced. I have been drawn right into the story from the beginning and enjoyed every moment of this audiobook. What I also liked a lot has been the various monsters and the magic system.
The characters - especially Sybal - wiggled their way into my heart within no time. With Sybal, I loved how strong-willed and at the same time quite vulnerable she is.
In conclusion, I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a thrilling fantasy story full of magic, monsters, an interesting plot and amazing characters.
