Delightfully Fulfilling
This second book in the Novel of Ancient Sumeria series is delightul and very fulfilling. I loved the quick wit and folowing the characters thru more adventures and entrigue. Well done Jesse Hudson. SMO
Awesome book that makes you want to listen more

Even more fun than the first
What did you love best about The Prince and the Priestess?
Original setting, lovable characters
Who was your favorite character and why?
Ammon was my favorite character because he was the perfect mix of luck, hubris, bravery, and sheer stupidity. His creative plans were always right on the line of brilliant and foolhardy.
What about Austin Vanfleets performance did you like?
His performance was solid, and a great continuation from from the first book.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I laughed many times while reading this book. I also remember shock at one point, like: "I should have seen that one coming! How did I miss that!"
Any additional comments?
Jesse Hudson is a lot of fun to read because the stories ring familiar of other adventure tales involving rescue, misfortune, and fun escapes, but Jesse adds this new layer of historical authenticity. For example, the names, places, foods and customs all feel legitimate. At the same time, Ammon feels like a lot of cocky, goofy young men that I know.
