Perfect narration did justice to much loved characters
I read the first book but am so glad I listened to this one as the reader was able to bring my favourite characters alive. I was disappointed when the book was finished & can’t wait to read the next one.

A journey of emotions
Great picturesque story but also factual accounts of life under the Tailban. Narration was great changing the voice and accents to the character. Each character had a story that was worth listening to. Well done
