Modesitt lover BUT
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Sorry I can't endorse this particular book. I have read and listened to many of L E Modesitt's books but this one was a bore.
Sorry Mr M.
Would you ever listen to anything by L. E. Modesitt again?
Moving on to the his next book in the Magi of Cyador.
Really enjoy his Recluse and Imager series
Have you listened to any of William Dufris’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Mr Dufris is a fine narrator and it was the material that seemed to lead nowhere slowly

Skip this one
What could L. E. Modesitt have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
He could have made it a short story.
Any additional comments?
I’m trying to spare you without including any spoilers:
This book is slow, repetitive and boring. Nothing interesting happens, just the same boring routine over and over again. They could easily have taken out 10 hours from the middle of the book and it would only make the book better. Somewhere among the repetitive happenings there are elements that could make it a halfway passable story but for some reason, they never make it into the main storyline. If you listen to this all the way through get ready for some disappointment. I’m a fan of the author, but this time he totally missed his mark.
