Historia
Ginger Stuyvesant, an American heiress living in London during World War I, is engaged to Captain Benjamin Hartshorne, an intelligence officer. Ginger is a medium for the Spirit Corps, a special Spiritualist force. Each soldier heading for the front is conditioned to report to the mediums of the Spirit Corps when they die so the corps can pass instant information about troop movements to military intelligence. Ginger and her fellow mediums contribute a great deal to the war efforts, so long as they pass the information through appropriate channels.

Loved this book!
Revisado: 05-30-17
A well-written book with an unusual twist on using psychic talents, and delightful characters brought to life by skillful use of tone and accent - I'll certainly be looking for more books by this author after thoroughly enjoying this one. One minor niggle was the narrator's habit of calling the main male character "Bin", sounding jarringly at odds with the rest of the book.

Great story, but a narrator with an irritating nasal voice that marred the listening experience.

Not nearly as good as the first two books., which I thoroughly enjoyed. Not zbujold's best work, but it won't put me off trying other series.

Really enjoyed the first book in the series, couldn't even finish this one. The narrator did his best, but this book just got boring.

I never thought there'd be a Pern book I didn't like - but Todd McCaffrey managed it with this. If I wanted a novel about a couple that became a threesome that became a foursome etc. bonking around the Weyrs I'd have bought the Mills & Boon edition! What I wanted was the damn good story that Anne McCaffrey always wrote - she must be turning in her grave with this tripe being published as "hers

Good story, bad narrator
Revisado: 06-07-15
If you could sum up Storm Warning in three words, what would they be?
Narrator needs to go back to school and learn how to correctly pronounce some words - glaring mispronunciations very jarring and offputting.

Trite and disappointing
Revisado: 03-14-15
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Every worn-out cliche of "sword & sorcery" fantasy - boring.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Nothing from this author - there are a lot better ones out there
Have you listened to any of Emily Beresford’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
no

Historia
Once the Church of God Awaiting dominated all the kingdoms of Safehold. Then, after centuries of stasis, the island kingdom of Charis began to defy the edicts of Mother Church—egged on, some say, by the mysterious warrior-monk Merlin Athrawes, who enjoys the Charisian royal family's absolute trust. What vanishingly few people know is that Merlin is the cybernetic avatar of a young woman a thousand years dead, felled in the war in which aliens destroyed Earth...and that since awakening, his task has been to restart the history of the long-hidden human race.

Worst Narrator Ever!
Revisado: 08-09-14
Is there anything you would change about this book?
This guy absolutely ruined the whole book - his breathy, hyper narration style clashes horribly with David Weber's series. He hasn't even had the basic common sense to check on previous pronunciations of names, places etc. in the other FIVE books, and his clashing mispronunciations had me ready to quit on a book by one of my favourite authors - no easy achievement! I will certainly NEVER buy any book which has him as a narrator. If you haven't already bought this as an audiobook, don't bother - keep up with the series by getting the kindle version!
How could the performance have been better?
Anybody else narrating would have been better!

Historia
The Charisian Empire, born in war, has always known it must fight for its very survival. What most of its subjects don’t know even now, however, is how much more it’s fighting for. Emperor Cayleb, Empress Sharleyan, Merlin Athrawes, and their innermost circle of most trusted advisers do know. And because they do, they know the penalty if they lose will be far worse than their own deaths and the destruction of all they know and love.

Stop changing narrators!
Revisado: 03-01-13
Would you try another book from David Weber and/or Charles Keating?
It's very unsettling to find have changes in narrator and character accents, and took me a while to get used to. If they change to yet another narrator, I won't be bothering to buy any more of this series!
