a great story

it was a very good story i couldn't stop listening to it. i just didn't like the way majiera had reacted to everything. her reactions are so selfish. she kept saying that cresslin couldn't understand. well what's there to understand? they were both victims of destiny.

great story, ok narration, horrible sound effects

A great story with a mostly good narration. The narrated sound effects, horses neighing and swords swooshing, were very grating.

OK

Narration was good, enjoyed most of the book but couldn't help feeling that Megaera's character was overly petulant and selfish, and brow beats cresslin at every opportunity, she has to be respected for who she is but he is not allowed to be who he is.
