Useful and engaging

Too many trade books balloon a blog post's worth of content into a book. Not this one. I have my own home recording studio (in the bedroom closet), but I'm still very early on in narration and have been looking around for hands on, thorough information like this. From tips and tricks on how to minimize strange noises to broader commentary about the industry, this book covers a lot of ground in a short time. It's impressively dense without becoming boring. For someone in the beginning to intermediate experience level like me, this book was spot on.

The Eastern Roman Empire is alone against the tide of barbarians swelling on her borders. Emperor Valens juggles the paltry border defences to stave off invasion from the Goths north of the Danube. Meanwhile, in Constantinople, a pact between faith and politics spawns a lethal plot that will bring the dark and massive hordes from the east crashing down on these struggling borders.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this audiobook to anyone who loves a good adventure yarn and would enjoy following the travels of a boy battling for his life across the tapestry of a lush but brutal history.
What other book might you compare Legionary to and why?
Hard for me to say, as I'm not much of a historical fiction reader. If anything, though, I would say this reminded me of Louis L'Amour's "The Walking Drum." Lots of action, shallow characters, plenty of fun.
Which scene was your favorite?
I enjoyed the bar scene in who Pavo drunkenly escapes a thrashing by kicking his far superior opponent in the privates -- not because of the cheap comedy, which wasn't bad, but because it encapsulates the sense of rowdy, slapdash, seat-of-your-pants action that typifies the story.
Any additional comments?
Simon Whistler's narration of this tale is a joy. His English accent gives it a sense of Old World majesty while his enthusiasm is infectious. He clearly enjoys the material (or he's very gifted at faking it). I would love to listen to more books read by him.
