Emancipating James

The Black Series, Volume 3

De: Joan Vassar

Narrado por: Jakobi Diem

In this compelling third saga of The Black Series, Joan Vassar returns to Upper Canada,1862. While on a mission with the legendary Black, James comes face to face with a dark beauty enslaved on the Mickerson plantation. Freedom and love are within his grasp, until ill-fated circumstances separate the two. When he is severely wounded in a violent uprising, James’ life is forever changed. Scarred both physically and emotionally, he tries to put behind him the failures of the last year.

When life at the fort is threatened, James and his brothers are called upon for a dangerous mission that could jeopardize their hard-earned freedom. The men embark on a treacherous journey that will take them to the Union Capital and then on to their final stop: The Hunter Plantation, where bitter enemies and reckonings await payment. As the men follow a path of murder and intrigue, who will live and who will die remains to be seen.

Emancipating James reveals the complicated facets of the human soul exposed against the backdrops of Civil War, slavery, and romance.

Captivating.

Ms. Joan Vasser does it again. I am so in awe of the stories about Black and his brothers. Ms. Vasser takes us on a ride in every book and this one is no different. There are characters you love, characters you hate and characters you hate but then grow to love. This book centers around James and his battle with the “Black Cracker” who shot him in the face in the previous book. There were a couple of slow moments but the overall story makes up for that. I am definitely adding this to my all time favorite series. And I’ve said it once but I’ll say it again..I didn’t even think I like historical fiction but with this series, I see how wrong I was! I highly recommend if you’re looking for a great read!

A Must read, a must listen!

Loved it! Intense, suspense! The power of love and loyalty displayed in a perfect literary work! A masterpiece!

Those Men from the Fort.

The story of a mancipation James is remarkably written. Joan Vassar is nothing short of a genius she has the ability to draw you in make you feel, pull you out and then repositioning your life as you never knew it. Thank you MZ.JOANVASSER.

Perfectly matched!

The strength and resilience of the male and female characters make this a wonderful experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the storytelling by Joan Vassar. The detail of daily life, the risks for freedom, and the family dynamics certainly kept me engaged and listening. The narrator, Jakobi Diem, does amazing work with the varying personalities and the change from male to female is a seamless and smooth transition. I love his voice for this series. I look forward to the next production.

Perfect in every way

Literally one of the best books I’ve read. The acting is perfect. The story line is incredible. The characters are flawlessly developed. 10/10

Phenomenal writing/story telling

Listen this author has a way with words that have you actually visualizing every scene and even imagining scents and sounds❤️ The story pulled me in from beginning to the very end. I found myself laughing, yelling, crying. I honestly went thru every emotion and at the end craved more. The fact that it’s so divinely written and has characters and scenes from actual history is even more impressive. Joan Is a visionary storyteller. Now as for the narration oh my goodness Jakobi is my number one narrator and he did not disappoint. The voices for every character were on point and I had no trouble identifying any of them from the different tones and inflictions he used… This book was worth a credit… My actual money …and am looking forward to more form
Both the author and narrator . Thank you Joan for your writing skills seriously phenomenal.
