intense story

the narrator had a very sing song monotone. sometimes sentences ran together. it was hard to differentiate characters.

Read it, Don't listen to it

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The book, nothing.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I haven't finished reading it yet.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Chris Dorman?

Anyone whose intonation isn't for syllabic placement but for emoting. If it was poetry, I'm fairly sure Chris Dorman would do an acceptable job. I don't normally write reviews, but the narration was so bad, it could turn someone off to the story. I had been reading it on my kindle and had nothing going in audible so figured I'd enjoy the story in my car ride. I don't even remember anything after two hours of listening. I have since stopped listening and will just enjoy it on my kindle. Don't give up on the book due to the narration.

Irritating narration.

The narrator drags out the end of some words like he's trying to over emphasize them like they're gravely important.....but he uses it everywhere for roughly the first 1/2 of the book. He finally dropped it, mostly, and it got easier to listen to. The story is not LOTR good, but is good enough to follow through to the end. IMO ;)

Enjoyable

War, love, & friendship. The charters are likable and you find yourself wanting them to survive the battles. Also, to know how their story ends.
(I had to speed up the narrator, otherwise the sound was too slow)

<br />excellent trilogy

Very enjoyable, well written. worth your timev to read (listen) to it. ,Recommend for any one who enjoys fantasies
