Stars of Fortune

Guardians Trilogy, Book 1

By: Nora Roberts

Narrated by: Saskia Maarleveld

FIRST IN THE GUARDIANS TRILOGY

#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts presents a trilogy about three women and three men who join forces to solve an ancient mystery through the power of timeless love…

Sasha Riggs is a reclusive artist, haunted by dreams and nightmares that she turns into extraordinary paintings. Her visions lead her to the Greek island of Corfu, where five others have been lured to seek the fire star. Sasha recognizes them, because she has drawn them: a magician, an archaeologist, a wanderer, a fighter, a loner. All on a quest. All with secrets.

Sasha is the one who holds them together - the seer. And in the magician, Bran Killian, she sees a man of immense power and compassion. As Sasha struggles with her rare ability, Bran is there to support her, challenge her, and believe in her.

But Sasha and Bran are just two of the six. And they must all work together as a team to find the fire star in a cradle of land beneath the sea. Over their every attempt at trust, unity, and love, a dark threat looms. And it seeks to corrupt everything that stands in its way of possessing the stars....

Excellent ! I cannot wait for book two! Going to be released in June, 2016

I cannot believe how good this book is! I have listened to it over and over! It is so refreshing to have a great narrator for Nora's book! There was an entire series that would have been great but was totally ruined by the narrators! It shocked me how badly the narrators could ruin an entire trilogy! Blood Magic was first in series! I was so annoyed by all three narrators that the trilogy was just ruined!
The story line of Stars of Fortune really keeps the reader intrigued! And the narrator was very good! No complaints! Ready for book two!
Nora does a lot of books with Irish characters. It is imperative that the narrators match the characters or all is lost! Thank you for reading!

Overall great book

The story was so good, it kept me interested in it the whole time I was listening to it. This was definitely worth listening to and would do it again!

love all of Nora's books!

loved it, narrator was great & as always Nora leaves you wanting more... only to the next.

Get the Unabridged version instead

❤️ It's a great story, but I did not notice it was the abridged version until I had already bought it. I feel like I missed too much of the story. One of the BEST things about Nora's books are the wonderful details. I will purchase the rest of the trilogy, BUT in unabridged format. I wish if Audible has both the abridged & unabridged versions of a book that it would show that plainly in the details where the series link/icon is located. I only took away the 2 stars for the story because I felt I missed half it! It's not really the author nor the story's fault but there's no star category to rate Audible or the book's editor that chopped it up. Nora should. NO ONE SHOULD EVER ABRIDGE A NORA ROBERTS NOVEL! I hope she objects to it being done with any other stories! ❤️

Story compelling. Actor took some getting used to

Enjoyed the book and surprising turns. The actor using a male voice sounded mechanical...like they used auto tune. Ready for the next one in the series.

Abridged. :(

I didn't want an abridged version of this book. I wanted the actual book I read and enjoyed. Saskia Maarleveld does a wonderful performance so why would I want to buy an abridged version? Please make this more pronounced in the purchasing processes Audible.

must read.

love this trilogy can't wait to read 3rd book. binge this and enjoy. full of funny jokes, social interactions between characters, imagination, never a dull moment, packed with adventure and sensational passion of love. make sure to get this link. the other freezes.

The story is goid

The story would have been better if the narrator wasn't so dry needs my expression during the action screens so the listener can really some excitement as well.

Roberts did good as usual

Wry easy listening . Good story line. Kept my interest and makes me want to hear book 2

Fan forever

I am a Nora Roberts fan. Have been reading all of the In death series with Eva Dallas. This book was a Christmas gift and once I started to listen I was hooked. I liked the way the characters were all different and there combined powers in the end to push back the evil Goddess. I am on to book 2 for the next star to see who falls in love in this book.
