About this listen

The first instalment in the award-winning Rowan of Rin fantasy series for children.

Bravest heart will carry on when sleep is death and hope is gone.

Rowan doesn't believe he has a brave heart. But when the river that supports his village of Rin runs dry, he must join a dangerous journey to its source in the forbidden Mountain.

To save Rin, Rowan and his companions must conquer not only the Mountain's many tricks but also the fierce dragon that lives at its peak.

Seriously great list, the performance is great; audio quality is great; and the story is amazing. It's very reminiscent of the classic hero's journey with some fantastic metaphors and details that makes it standout and have an impact. Highly recommended.
