Slow to start but gets much better

Revisado: 06-23-23

Took me about one-third of the book to get interested but when I did I found I had to keep listening - I guess that’s the equivalent of not being able to put the book down. The narration was superb - Ray Porter did a fantastic job. I would recommend this book to anyone with the warning that it might be slow going but gets much better.

Not up to standard

Revisado: 11-23-21

This book was a slight disappointment for me. it's not up to Terry Brooks standard. The storyline is good but the story is too wordy in places - it repeats the same information over and over again. There are several places in the story that should have been caught by the editors because things don't jive - for example there are places during fight scenes that the staff is lost knocked out of the hand but in the next paragraph she uses the staff to create magic. When did she find and retrieve the staff? I love Terry Brooks but I think this book was a rush job and should have been edited better. I truly look forward to seeing Terry Brooks write more books and I did enjoy the basis of the story but please do some better editing.

great series

Revisado: 11-21-21

I really enjoyed this series of books. The storyline was good - full of magic, of action, of love, of dragons - everything a fantasy should have to make it complete. The narrator was really great - I don't know where she is from but she carried the Scottish brogue as if it were totally natural for her. This made the story more real to me but at times hard to understand - I had to listen closely to catch the meaning of some words. I would definitely recommend this series to others.

Read this book to the end!

Revisado: 05-12-21

I was about to give up on this book but decided to stick it out for a bit more - I finished the book! I felt empathy for the couple telling the story but couldn't seem to see their reasoning for blaming the couple living downstairs. That is until Jamie got the letter .... whoops almost gave it away. This book draws you in and even with only listening to it every now and then you will still feel that drawn in feeling return as soon as the book starts playing. I recommend reading this book to the end.

Who did it?

Revisado: 10-26-20

The storyline was mesmerizing - kept me on my toes so to speak. I thought I knew the answer to who was the bad guy but the ending of the book blew my mind. The narrator (s) did an excellent job with the voices and helped the story flow. I will definitely recommend this book to others.

easy to listen to

Revisado: 09-17-20

This book took me a while to get into the story but then I began to enjoy it. Once I got to know the characters it got better. The narrator was mediocre at first but then it was like he began to feel the story and his modulation got better. I could feel that change and started to feel it also. I will recommend it to others and will continue with the series.

Great "read"

Revisado: 05-23-20

This book is the final in the trilogy. It is just as exciting a story as the first two. The battles are full of action and are clearly defined in words. Each character is fully fleshed out and you can picture each. The storyline is captivating and easily puts you into the story. The narrator is wonderful!! She has a different voice and accent for each speaker. She keeps you enthralled in the story with her narration. I would definitely recommend this trilogy to anyone who enjoys fantasy and action.

great action and narration

Revisado: 05-18-20

I truly enjoyed this book! The action is scattered throughout the book - a great storyline! The characters are fleshed out so well that you can envision them and make them alive. The wonderful narrator has a lot to do with that. She is what makes you feel as if you were there in person. She has voices for everyone so you can see who's speaking. I would strongly recommend this book as well as the book one the Spymaster.

Revisado: 11-01-19

This book in audible is fantastic. The characters were drawn out so you felt as if you are there. I am looking forward to hearing the next book when it is finished. I am impressed with the reading from the narrator - great job.
