The Sword of Bedwyr

The Crimson Shadow

De: R. A. Salvatore

Narrado por: David Drummond

Young noble Luthien Bedwyr is too privileged to understand that his once-proud land, Eriador, suffers under the demonic oppression of Wizard-King Greensparrow. That is, until the day Luthien seeks justice for a friend's murder---only to become a fugitive fleeing the king's monstrous cyclopian soldiers. Befriended by the irrepressible "highwayhalfling" Oliver deBurrows, and enlisted by an ancient, mysterious mage, Luthien's exile will become an enchanted quest to steal a mystic prize from a dragon's hoard.

Suddenly, Eriador's enslaved humans, elves, and dwarfs begin to rally around rumored tales of a freedom fighter who strikes Greensparrow's foul minions...an unknown hero who wields a legendary sword and magic cape...a warrior who is invisible but who casts the "Crimson Shadow."

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Salvatore describes and choreographs battle scenes better than any other contemporary fantasist, as this first tale of the adventures of Luthien Bedwyr amply demonstrates.” ( Publishers Weekly)

Dashing story with a striking narrator!

Another great tale written by Salvatore! David Drummond provides a memorable narration to the story and brings out the full character for Oliver DeBurrows!

Such good writing

R.A. Salvatore is such an amazing writer and this series is no exception. the way he tells the story is so complete and I'm always ready for more

Great but not the best of R.A. Salvatore

R.A. Salvatore has set a very high standard for his books while I very much enjoyed this book I did not find myself obsessing over it as I usually do I feel it was shorter and therefor lacking in the character development the love interest while usually very developed was pretty 2d

I love listening too audio book's

The story was very entertaining enjoyable. By listening too audio book's. I'm able too catch up on book's I've been putting off for awhile now. I love listening too audio book's.

Awesome narration

Loved the different voices and the way it was told great performance to follow a greater book

Great story with great characters.

I've read this story three times and it's still a great story.

Thank you Bob.

up and down

Well I was coming off the heals of Driizt's first trilogy so my expectations were high. I wanted to get into this one but I just couldnt get into the main character. His sidekick was cool, but the story had trouble holding me. There were moments I listened intently and moments I zombied through. Still, it ended on a high note and I'm planning on the sequel.

voice acting

loved the entire thingx absolutely riveting and full of high adventure! some of Salvatore's very best work.

Hooked!

Good story, a little slow to start.
The narrator was great, he had great range, characters
were believable.

This book got better with every chapter.

I stumbled across this book by accident. I was familiar with the author, but not the story. For a short book, it was full of unexpected turns, and great characters. I look forward to continuing this trilogy.
