Oh my heart!

This one was a definite tear jerker, emotional rollercoaster of an adventure! The performance was absolutely magical!

Speed it up

Gotta speed it up to around 1.15x. The narrator focuses too much on enunciation at the cost of story telling.

Love the story though. Good memories of reading it so many years ago.

Emperor Mage

I thought this was the best one of the series that I have read so far. It was funny at times as well as serious. I like the part about her shooting the longbow with the prince and his friends the best for the funny parts. She was good. I recomend anybody to read this book, it is very good.

Review

It just didn’t seem to fit in the rest of the books it went on its own adventure and didn’t connect to the rest of the books it’s almost like it separate from the trilogy

Great story

This one really keeps you on the edge of your seat. It was worth all the excitement it gives.

Great series

I've loved these books since I was a kid, probably my favorite series. I wish there were more like it.

Always A Good Read

Great writing! Easy to get through. Always exciting! I love the Hag goddess scenes. Dane is a loving protagonist.

Astounding Magical Adventure

This installment was just as amazing as the first two books in the series, and I’m reminded of what a truly nasty villain Orzorne is - and that his wickedness is only outdone by his arrogance. The imagination in this volume draws you in and doesnt let go until the final sentence; I especially loved the fact Diane used the dinosaurs instead of the two leggers like the Hag would have preferred.

Absolutely love it!😍

I love the voices of the different characters in the performance! I also love the way they match voices that suit the animals in the story. Absolutely amazing!🤩

You get used to Full Cast Audio

The main problem I have with Full Cast Audio is that, regrettably, they use Tamora Pierce as a narrator. Having actually met Tamora Pierce, I can say that she doesn't sound nearly so slow/dreary/synthetic in person.
If you just listen to audiobooks without focusing on something else, you probably won't have the patience for FCA, which is a very small production, primarily because of the narrator. I like to do crafts, and I managed to settle into it, but I listen to the words more than the voices. I don't know how it will be for you. On the other hand, if you're listening to this book, you've probably listened to the first two and have decided that you can deal with Tamora Pierce's narrating already.
Also unfortunate is that because FCA is so small, the final book in this quartet is not yet finished, and the release date keeps getting pushed back. I believe it is currently set for June 2010, but it's original release date was in '09, so... cross your fingers or read the physical copy.
Having said that , I found this book to be really quite enjoyable, and if you liked the first two books of the immortal series, then I think you'll quite like this third. The animal characters were ridiculously enjoyable, and you really have to admire the author's sense of humor. She is a fangirl at heart.
