    Publisher's Summary:
    Five years have passed since the Skandians and the Araluans made their treaty, and Will has finally become a Ranger, with his own fief to look after. He soon learns that even sleepy little islands have problems to keep him on his toes. Then he and his old friend Alyss are thrown into a terrifying new adventure, investigating the truth behind rumours of sorcery in a remote northern fief. As he stands in Grimsdell Forest, with the horrific, ghostly Night Warrior looming over him, Will must ask himself one question: is there a rational explanation... or does sorcery really exist?
    Critic Reviews:
    "Flanagan expertly juggles the overall plot line...with a logically constructed campaign that culminates in a hard, suspenseful battle." (Kirkus)
    "Fans of the series will eagerly devour this one and wait impatiently for the next...A sure bet for fantasy fans." (School Library Journal)
    Members Reviews:
    Part one of two
    This story ends on a cliff, with the plot wrapping up in Siege of Macindaw. An entertaining, adventurous, and heartwarming two-book tale of treachery versus loyalty, science versus superstition. One obvious moral here is that popular chaps aren't always trustworthy.
    I like this narrator (Zappa) better than Keating, because he reads with a natural cadence and rhythm. I find that Keating pauses in places that are best for him to draw a breath, but not necessarily best for me to follow the drift (even though I like his voice and he reads fluently).
    I don't like the musical intrusions at each chapter break. Obnoxious! If not for that, a 5-star narration. Zappa gets 5, but the recording studio gets 3.
    Do you pick book #1 or book #2 for The Sorcerer in the North?
    You gotta love the never ending action, the deviousness of the enemy, the humor in the banter and teasing between fighting comrades, the refreshing way the plot uncurls (something hard to do today with the number of proven authors and the deluge of new authors) and the skill of new to us, narrator Zappa. No, I didn't go for door #1 with the advice of two readers reviews on the 2 identical books but different readers. Thanks! It was the winning choice: Frank Zappa. He did an exceptional job and made the transition seamlessly in narrators. Having said this, I will be making a difficult choice in the next book which is a "two-er" again because I really like both narrators. Can we have a hint? Does our choice influence which one stays? Do we have to be between 15 and 22 to vote since as of book 4, this series has become YA and author Flanagan "one of the most influential youth authors" created. This listener is 70 and likes the series very much! Does this mean I'm going thru my second childhood? Spend a credit whatever your age and find out how good The Sorcerer in the North is!
    Delightful audio!
    Excellant all around! For the audio makers, please note that listeners can be greatly disturbed by the louder musical breaks. This can cause a child to cry out in pain if using earbuds. Please send notes to refrain from musical additions.
    Great story, great narrator
    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
    Yes, the story is great and I love the narrator.
    What did you like best about this story?

    5 stars
    Love this series! The kids and I are listening to them in the car on the school run. Just straight adventure with well developed, likable characters.
    Enjoyable
    Just as good as the first book. Definitely aimed at the "young adult" market but enjoyed it nonetheless.
    Keiths review
    'Hooked on this series and enjoying each new adventure and the characters within asthe plot unfolds.
    It was good, but.......
    What made the experience of listening to Oakleaf Bearers the most enjoyable?
    I have enjoyed this series immensely and took this book almost as a reflex action. I enjoyed the story, but found it a bit too drawn out. As usual the action got me in, to listen to each bow shot and clang of armor was fun and entertaining. William Zappa did his usual best when reading this tale. I shall look forward to the next book, despite my slight disappointment in this one. it is still a good read.
    What did you like best about this story?
    I like the continuing story of Will and Holt, of their adventures in other lands as well as their own. Although just a bit labored the story does jog along fairly well, and with Horace as a sidekick as well as princess Cassandra, plus the Skandians kept it going.
    What about William Zappas performance did you like?
    William Zappa is a really good choice to narrate this tale, he can change the accents and not forget who is speaking, all in all it is a good job done.
    If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
    Bold and exciting in the old fashion way.
    Any additional comments?
    The story could have either been a little shorter, or something added to fill in the spaces of music between chapters. I find that in this book, the music after the chapter is announced a bit off putting, I was never sure if I was beginning or ending a chapter, but otherwise no other comments.
    brilliant, thanks audible
    just brilliant, the skandian battle very visual in my minds eye takes you back to ancient and simpler times.

    Title: The Sacred Band
    Subtitle: Book Three of the Acacia Trilogy

    Length: 28 hrs and 2 mins

    Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic
    Publisher's Summary:
    With the first two books in the Acacia Trilogy, Acacia and The Other Lands, David Anthony Durham has created a vast and engrossing canvas of a world in turmoil, where the surviving children of a royal dynasty are on a quest to realize their fates - and perhaps right ancient wrongs once and for all.
    As The Sacred Band begins, one of them, Queen Corinn, bestrides the world as a result of her mastery of spells found in the ancient Book of Elenet. Her younger brother, Dariel, has been sent on a perilous mission to the Other Lands, while her sister, Mena, travels to the far north to confront an invasion of the feared race of the Auldek. Their separate trajectories will converge in a series of world-shaping, earth-shattering battles, all rendered with vividly imagined detail and in heroic scale.
    David Anthony Durham concludes his tale of kingdoms in collision in an exciting fashion. His fictional world is at once realistic and fantastic, informed with an eloquent and distinctively Shakespearean sensibility.
    Critic Reviews:
    A truly epic fantasy... with a rich world and nuanced characters. Superbly written." (Fantasy magazine)
    Members Reviews:
    Good Series
    Would you listen to The Sacred Band again? Why?
    Yes, To hear the things I may have missed that could have led me to the conclusion.
    What other book might you compare The Sacred Band to and why?
    I would choose the original Draganlance series for the story. It was just enjoyable to listen to.
    Have you listened to any of Dick Hills other performances before? How does this one compare?
    No
    Great Series
    The series ended as great as it started. I was locked in from the start of Book 1 to the end of Book 3. While Book 3 of Game of Thrones may be the best fantasy book on a stand alone basis, this is the best fantasy trilogy I have yet to come across. Highly recomended for anyone who loves the darkness of fantasy series.

    Yes, I would dick hill is an amazing reader, has such a a powerful versatile voice.

It is right up there withe A Song of Ice and Fire, Book of Malazan,a nd the kingKiller Chronnicles; better than the latter two and on equal part with George RR Martins book. In fact this book is a George RR Recommendation on his must reads! I'm glad He was write, I am now buy everything David Anthony Durham Writes.
    What about Dick Hills performance did you like?
    dick hill is an amazing reader, has such a a powerful versatile voice. He is the golden voice of Audio, along with Roy Dotrice, very powerful, and a voice for every character. A must Listen!!!

    Publisher's Summary:
    Customs officers board a galley in a harbor and overpower its guards. In the hold they find oil and silver, and a naked boy chained to the bulkhead. The officers break the boy's chains to rescue him, but he escapes. Duke Alonzo commands the seas, taxes his colonies, and, like every duke before him, fears assassins better than his own. In a side chapel, Alonzo's 13-year old cousin prays for deliverance from her forced marriage. When Moorish pirates break in to steal a chalice, they kidnap her and demand ransom from the Duke. As day dawns, Marco, the Duke's chief assassin, prepares to kill the man who let in the pirates. Having cut the traitor's throat, he turns back, and finds a stranger crouched over the man, drinking blood from the wound. The speed with which the boy dodges a dagger and scales a pillar stuns Marco, and the assassin knows he has to find the boy he's finally found what he thought he would never find. Someone fit to be his apprentice.

    Well written but.......
    It's a good listen but you get a bit lost. Jumps alot mid story. Once you catch up your good to go.
    Too hard to follow
    Would you try another book from Jon Courtenay Grimwood and/or Dan John Miller?
    No
    What was most disappointing about Jon Courtenay Grimwoods story?
    They didn't build any character for me to be interested in. The story jumped around soo much it was hard to follow and after slogging through hour after hour hoping it would get better I cut my loses and quit.
    Magical Venice
    Our own history is so full of mystery and intrigue that a good author has really no need to create his own fictional world in order to create a truly great novel. Travel back in time to Venezia the city of a thousand bridges and channels and there really is no need to create the lost elven city of Lothlorien. Add a dash of magic, a dash mystery and include some good old human cruelty and you have the recipe for what could be a great novel right?
    Well yes. But even if Venezia surely is the perfect setting for assassins, nobility and political drama and I can hardly imagine a more ???magical??? city this novel still comes off as bland. The characters are, if not mostly one dimensional, all unlikable. This novel sadly falls into that broad category of historical fiction where the author has been so focused on creating a story in a true historical setting that the story part has somehow gotten in second line to what I assume is correct Renaissance architecture and sculptures. A shame really.
    well paced fun
    Great novel, part of a good series. Nice to have vampires and werewolves that aren't twilight style, without being nosferatu style either.
    This story is an alternate history, fantasy work. Great description and scene setting. Great narrator too
    Could be a good series
    On the whole I love the work of Jon Courtenay Grimwood although some are much better than others. This one is by and large good but with some elements of confused logic. The "hero" is capable of grade A violence but puts up with regular capture and torture. There is also much confusion as to the why's and wherefores of his love interest(s). However the story is otherwise very good, not so the narration. Dan Miller cannot and should not ever do female voices as he comes over as comic camp with a squeaky petulant tone.

    Publisher's Summary:
    Winner of five Hugo Awards, Michael Swanwick is an icon within the fantasy community. In The Dragons of Babel he effortlessly blends magical elements and post-industrial atmosphere to craft a unique and unforgettable tale.
    When a mechanical war dragon crash lands in his village and declares itself king, Will le Fey is forced to become its lieutenant. Although he eventually breaks his enslavement, Will is banished by the townspeople, who no longer trust him. While he travels, he befriends a superhuman con artist and an immortal girl with no memory. And when the trio winds up in the extraordinary Faerie metropolis of Babel, Will becomes a champion to the tunnel dwellers below the city.
    In a starred review, Publishers Weekly praises this heady literary stew and describes it as modern fantasy at its finest. Narrator Dan Butlers reading captures the full scope of Swanwicks astonishing epic.
    Critic Reviews:
    Swanwick continues to turn traditional ideas of Faerie life upside down while remaining true to ancient Celtic Faerie lore. This masterfully written expansion of an iconoclastic vision belongs in all libraries of all sizes. (
    Library Journal)
    Members Reviews:
    Terrible
    Narrative is monotonous and no personality. I was so confused by the end of the first chapter, 'the winged ones' (the kids? the dragons?) The coolest part of this book and we are blindfolded by a stone grandmother whom died in and explosion that did the town no harm?? Are the dragons evil? If so why js the protagonist so in aw of them?
    Fantastic!!
    Due to my chronic laziness I rarely write reviews, even though I do value customer reviews when browsing. This audio book is exceptional. The plot, content narration and style had me hooked within five minutes. One of those rare finds where I am in no rush to find out what happens in the end, as I am enjoying the evolution of the circumstances our main character Will finds himself in so much. Also, Swanwick very cleverly has the listener constantly modifying his/hers mental picture of the world but in small ways, so we don't feel anything is being directly explained. A risk-free purchase - guaranteed.
    Well worth 12 hours of your life
    This book took a little getting into but is worth the effort. A curious mix of fairy tale, little bit of sci-fi and some modern tech. An old story told with a good fresh twist, and the narration was very good too.

    Publisher's Summary:
    An ice age strikes a chain of islands, and thousands come to seek sanctuary at the gates of Villjamur: a city of ancient spires and bridges, a place where banshees wail the deceased, cultists use forgotten technology for their own gain, and where, further out, the dead have been seen walking across the tundra. When the Emperor commits suicide, his elder daughter, Rika, is brought home to lead the Jamur Empire, but the sinister Chancellor plans to get rid of her and claim the throne for himself.
    Meanwhile, a senior investigator in the city inquisition must solve the high-profile and savage murder of a city politician while battling evils within his own life, and a handsome and serial womanizer manipulates his way into the imperial residence with a hidden agenda.
    When reports are received that tens of thousands of citizens are dying in a bizarre genocide on the northern islands of the Empire, members of the elite Night Guard are sent to investigate. It seems that, in this land under a red sun, the long winter is bringing more than just snow.
    Critic Reviews:
    "Newton handles his multilayered world and diverse cast of characters with the assurance of an experienced author and balances his fantasy tropes with elements of horror and political commentary in vividly descriptive, compelling prose." (Publishers Weekly)
    "Unusual characters, including those from nonhuman races and a compelling gay protagonist, give this genre-bender plenty of appeal for a variety of readers." (Booklist)

    Publisher's Summary:
    In the years following the invasion of the Fey, Blue Isle has maintained an uneasy peace. But the marriage between the Islander prince, Nicholas, and the Fey king's granddaughter, Jewel, has not brought their peoples together in true unity, as they had hoped. And worse, the firstborn son that Nicholas and Jewel had hoped would bring the Fey and the Islanders alike to accept their union has proven to be an empty husk of a child, seen by both races as an ill omen.
    But Jewel's Vision has not shown her the truth: that Sebastian is not her child but a changeling, and that her true son was spirited away by her own father to the enchanted fortress of gray mist called the Shadowlands. There, Rugar hopes to use the boy's magic to consolidate his power among the Fey and finish the conquest he began. His theft of his grandson is only the first betrayal that will weaken the fragile alliance between races; soon an assassination will touch off an explosive chain of events that will threaten the survival of both peoples.

    Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fantasy: Epic
    Publisher's Summary:
    Brimming with passion and adventure, Greg Keyes epic saga of a royal family's fall from power through treachery and dark magic, set amid the return of ancient evils whose malevolence threatens to annihilate humanity, bids fair to become a classic of its kind. Now, in the eagerly awaited third installment, Keyes draws the threads of his tapestry ever tighter, illuminating old mysteries and introducing new ones as events build toward a shattering climax.
    The legendary Briar King has awakened, spreading madness and destruction. Half-remembered, poorly understood prophecies seem to point to the young princess, Anne Dare, rightful heir to the throne of Crotheny, as the world's only hope. Yet Anne is hunted by the minions of the usurper Robert, whose return from the grave has opened a doorway through which sinister sorceries have poured into the world. Though Anne herself is the conduit of fearsome powers beyond her understanding and control, it is time for girl to become woman, princess to become queen. Anne must stop running and instead march at the head of an army to take back her kingdom...or die trying. But a mysterious assassin stalks her, so skilled in the deadly fencing style of dessrata that even Anne's friend and protector Cazio, a master of the form, cannot stand against him, nor can her sworn defender, the young knight Neil MeqVren.
    As for Anne's other companions - Aspar White, the royal holter who bears an enchanted arrow capable of felling the Briar King, and Stephen Darige, the monk who blew the horn that woke the Briar King from his slumber - they cannot help her, as their separate paths carry them ever deeper into a deadly maze of myth and magic from which return may be impossible.
    Meanwhile, Queen Muriele is a prisoner of the false king. With no allies but a crippled musician, who is himself a prisoner, and a serving woman who is both more and less than she seems, Muriele will find herself a pawn in Roberts schemes for conquest and a weapon to be used against her own daughter.
    Critic Reviews:
    "[A] sophisticated and intelligent high fantasy epic." (Publishers Weekly)

    Did NOT keep my attention...
    Would you try another book from Greg Keyes and/or Patrick Michael?
    Probably not...
    What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
    Sorry - didn't finish it. I got halfway thru it, but I kept finding myself thinking of other things while I was attempting to listen. Since it couldn't ever keep my attention, I stopped listening.
    How could the performance have been better?
    Didn't like the narrator. I even heard him say, "damn" under his breath when he mispronounced a character's name. While that held some comic relief for me, it also irritated me. Plus I didn't like his voice too much. Kind of a wussy voice... if that makes sense.
    Could you see The Blood Knight being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
    Nope.
    Any additional comments?
    Just that I wouldn't recommend this book. I got too bored... wishing things would escalate some more. I didn't even want to finish the book - and haven't been bothered that I never did.
