Not much of a romance reader. I prefer a good solid plot with romance as a side issue. I really only read the Ilona Andrews novella. I am in the process of rereading all the Kate Daniels books and this fit in. The involvement of the Greek myths was particularly fun. I immersed myself in the myths as a teenager so this was an enjoyable side effect of reading the story. I may read the other selections another time.

This would make a wonderful entry for PBS masterpiece theater, or as streaming series similar in some ways to Doctor Who. It is very British for those of us who lean that way, and I love that the "Historians" are quirky, intellectual and perfectly willing to use a slapped together flamethrower to protect the past. Oh, yeah, there is a satisfying love story or two also. The Narrator is excellent.

I stayed up until four AM to finish it. What a treat!

The Samantha Moon books have gotten less and less interesting while the quality of the writing has become more and more Indifferent. It's as if the author no longer really cares whether the books are meeting the expectations of the readers or not. If there were a good narrator for this particular book it might make a difference. An experienced narrator with The ability to make the story come alive and add nuance to each character would help immensely. The virtual voice simply is not up to the task. I finally just dozed off and couldn't finish. Too bad, used to be a pretty good series.

Would have enjoyed this More had the narators been better. Still, Hearing about Jamie's life At helwater And seeing the burgeoning relationship with his son, William , Was worth putting up with the poor accents. I think I had gotten so used to Davina Porter's Excellent work that it may have Made me less satisfied. Wonderful story. Would love to listen to more stories concerning the relationship between lord John and Jamie.

I first read this book in 1993 when it was first published. Lately, at 73, I've been rereading, or rather listening to a lot of series and have found that the Joanna Brady series is even better now. it's pretty much straight mystery with wonderful character development and a plot that will keep you guessing. If you appreciate strong women characters who deal with everyday problems and handle life threatening situations with common sense and courage, give this series a chance. Just be prepared to lose sleep!

Sorry when it was over. Some parts were so unbelievable I felt I was reading fantasy. However, loving elephants all my life, I can easily believe that they are as sentient as humans and maybe higher in emotional intelligence.

The smooth dialogue and accents were easy to get lost in, and Simon Vance's reading was perfect. He really seemed to be enjoying himself.

I know I'm going to enjoy the rest of the series.

Occasionally difficult to follow. The story line was so complicated That it must be listened to very intently In order to Keep up. There were so many characters that the narration Was hard pressed to differentiate between the different voices. Could get confusing at times. I found I had to Backtrack whole chapters in order that I did not miss any pertinent plot points. The story of the crow people was not entirely clear, at least to me. On the whole, however, I did enjoy The story. I'm looking forward to any more books concerning the swan island warriors, particularly The continuing story of Dau And Liobhan.
