Spirit of the Wood

Green Rider, Book #7.5

De: Kristen Britain

Narrado por: Ellen Archer

This short novel set in the world of the New York Times best-selling Green Rider series tells the backstory of fan-favorite character Laren Mapstone.

Perfect for longtime Green Rider fans eager for more of the world or new audiences discovering the realm of Sacoridia for the first time, this action-packed, feminist fantasy is a must-hear for lovers of the genre.

After years of leading the battle against the vicious Darrow Raiders, Lieutenant-Rider Laren Mapstone has built a fortress around herself to conceal her emotions and the deep scars she carries. When she is made mentor to Tavin Bankside, a Green Rider trainee on his first message errand, her cold and brooding exterior quickly earns her the moniker the “Ice Lady”.

Only after Laren is severely wounded in an attack on the North Road by a gang of bandits—including some former Darrow Raiders with vengeance on their minds—do the fortress walls fall. Even as they seek refuge from danger in a Rider waystation, Tavin’s natural empathic gift leaves him vulnerable to the assault of the lieutenant’s emotions. Tavin must save Lieutenant Mapstone’s life and master his empathic gift before it destroys them both.

However, an ancient power lurks deep within the Green Cloak, and its aid or hindrance could mean survival for the Riders or the downfall of Sacoridia and all the free lands.

good, just short

short and sweet. good storyline. did a nice job of telling a story we all wondered about.

The best voice actor I’ve heard

I like the way that she seamlessly change character voices, and was so pronounced different that I knew who the character was before she had utter the first word. She may miss a very enjoyable read.
