Great series. The books only get better from here. Strongly recommended.

While this one's gets off to a slow start it has a strong finish.

Worth mentioning, it's not mandatory listening to go on to the next in the series - The Queen of Attolia. If you're not sure about this one, check the next one out. It was the first one I read and one of my all time favourite books as a child.

So great to see these finally appearing as audiobooks!

A classic and a favourite

Struggled to Finish. Boringly uneventful
. First half full of not much substance at all.
