Reviews
Absolutely delightful

I began listening to this recording before it was completed...just to see what it was like. I was hooked. Though the first chapter was a bit of a detail overload, as the story progresses it gets more and more difficult to stop listening. Oh, and the recording was simply superb! Thanks Lizzy. :)
Sir Walter Scott at his best

great story and to top it off the reader has an extremely sexy and pleasant voice.
chapter 7 of the tallsman

I am reading this for school and i was asked to read chapter 7, But i found no chapter 7. Instead i found two chapters entitled chapter 9. I clicked on the first chapter 9 the one below chapter 6 and it turned out to be chapter 7. Other than this issue i think its a fine recording.
Narration is superb

Thanks to the narrator for her time and patience in recording this book. She did a great job. Unfortunately, this book is about as interesting as watching paint dry. The pace is nothing short of glacial. The plot expands further and further without making any connection. I couldn’t get past the 8th chapter.
GREAT ADVENTURE
