Reviews
Courts of the morning Sandy's story
Susyamaras
This is more Sandy Arbuthnot's story Clanroyden. Which is great. He gets a resolve. Although he becomes an important character in the Hannay series this is definitely more about him. Actually a more interesting character since he is shrouded in more mystery and going and coming to exotic places. Also fuller more rounded character in my opinion because we get to see more vulnerable sides to him. Addendum. If you read the book it's more about Sandy not about Archir and his wife. Although this was enjoyable it is sad that so many main characters are missing and how they changed the ending
Entertaining
Seven Archers
A little different then I expected one of Buchan's stories to be, but it was a radio dramification of one his books so it's to be expected. It was entertaining and nice to listen to while working around the house.
excellent Actors! brilliant. bravo. storyline was just ok.
