About this listen

 The best-selling fantasy saga that began with Lord Valentine's Castle continues in Majipoor Chronicles, as the young street urchin Hissune gets his due for helping Lord Valentine regain his throne. As a reward, he is sent into the depths of the Labyrinth, a massive library of memory cubes in which the entire history of Majipoor is preserved.

As Hissune prepares for a summons to return to Castle Mount, he relives the lives of Majipoor's most famous and notorious inhabitants, learning more about the people and his new land than anyone else in the kingdom. As he becomes one with its many peoples - dukes and generals, thieves and murderers, Ghayrogs and Metamorphs - he discovers wonder, terror, longing, and love and learns wisdom that will shape his destiny.

I loved this story. It spoke of the essence of pure motivation in life's journey. Beautifully written and narrated. Try to imagine a world where murder is almost non-existent. A noble tale.

This and the other short stories book about Majipoor are simply superb. Read the paperbacks multiple times, listened to the audiobooks for another readers flair and perspective. I do not regret, will probably listen again.
