About this listen
The Lover of Lord Eithra is the first of a series of three stories by Leigh Ann Hussey (1961-2006) that were originally published in Fantasy Book Magazine in the mid-1980s. This first story introduces a young woman, Luc'hessen, who's cursed to be a sword by day and a woman or a sword by night. She winds up in the hands of Eithras, a young nobleman whose principle is to be unprincipled. Through his encounter and relationship with Luc'hessen, Eithras learns the value of honor.

Some of the parchment pages were the color of cream, thick and substantial, made to last many, many lifetimes. Other pages were thin and desiccated, positively yellow from age, and crackled alarmingly as Van Richten turned them over. There were no ornate illuminations, no fussy borders, only lines of plain text in hard black ink. The flowing handwriting was a bit difficult to follow at first; the writer's style of calligraphy had not been in common use for 300 years. No table of contents, but from the dates it looked to be some kind of history.

Some of the parchment pages were the color of cream, thick and substantial, made to last many, many lifetimes. Other pages were thin and desiccated, positively yellow from age, and crackled alarmingly as Van Richten turned them over. There were no ornate illuminations, no fussy borders, only lines of plain text in hard black ink. The flowing handwriting was a bit difficult to follow at first; the writer's style of calligraphy had not been in common use for 300 years. No table of contents, but from the dates it looked to be some kind of history.

Vivid Imagery, Outstanding Reading
Where does The Lover of Lord Eithras rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Excellent short-fiction structure, good scene structure, pacing right on the button, and the point comes across bright and clear.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Eithras, the main character is very real - feeling mis-cast in his social role and so vulnerable to seduction. But he learns from his mistake, and matures into a person we can trust. The main subject is "Possession" -- the characters get "taken over" and must fight free.
What does Colin Hussey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Because Colin Hussey was the reader on one of my anthologies, Through The Moon Gate, I really shouldn't try to give an impartial evaluation of his skills -- but the thing is, he has my personal combination down pat. I just love his interpretations of Characters.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This one is very short so it was easy to fit into an evening. But Colin Hussey gives you that "can't put it down" feeling.
Any additional comments?
If you like this short, you will probably love this series -- this piece introduces a whole world, with its rules of magic and practicality as well as social structures constraining Characters' actions. It gives you the problems the Hero has to confront and a hint of what he must become to emerge a winner. In other words, this piece is a nice springboard, or what they call in TV, a "Pilot Episode." I think it ought to be picked up for Web Radio, podcast, or something, with lots of actors and background music, full production. Could make a Netflix Original Series -- it is that vividly visual.
