Summary
But Esperanza is no ordinary servant. She has been sent by her guardian, the mysterious Madame de l'Orme, to uncover the dark and dangerous secrets that her new mistress has sought to conceal, and to set right a past injustice in which Esperanza's own closest interests are bound up.
Gradually those secrets are revealed, and with them the truth of who Esperanza really is, forcing agonising obligations on her, and enmeshing her in a complicated web of intrigue, deceit and murder that culminates in betrayal by those she trusted most.

Enjoyable but.......
Very enjoyable to listen to, and very well narrated. The story was Victorian gothic with some elements of Dickens, in particular the ‘comic’ lower class characters, with their odd names and strange appearance and mannerisms, which felt rather dated and unappealing to me in this day and age!

A compelling listen
The Glass of Time is beautifully read and I would have loved to have known who the main readers were. The reader for Ezmeralda was wonderful and really helped to convey the character.
Although long, it was strangely compelling, with several twists along the way.It's quite Dickensian but in a similar genre to Wilkie Collins, 'The Women in White.' The detail and scene setting are carefully drawn reflecting the skill of Michael Cox.
I hadn't realised that there was a prequel but I will be looking out for this.

Antidote to Pandemics.
Instead of wasting hours of self isolation watching trash on Netflix, let The Glass of Time sooth your overheated brow with this beautifully narrated Victorian melodrama .

Not quite of to The Meaning of Night...
Moreover, having read 'Meaning', all the significant plot twists were highly predictable. However, an entertaining read nonetheless, and a satisfactory conclusion to an intriguing saga.
