Love the book, but narrator lost her accent...

I LOVE this book. I have the hard copy at home, and was excited to find it so I could listen to it while I drive.

The narrator starts out great. And she's (the narrator) great when she's not "doing voices". Originally, the characters start off with kindof... a peasant's brogue accent. 10/10 sounds great.

But shortly in, when she starts getting to more emotional scenes, the main character's accemt turned into a southern belle. Then it turned into some kind of Louisiana bayou-esque accent. Then it would switch back to the original. Every time the accent has changed so far has been incredibly jarring and happens during many of the "peak" moments of the story. If there's another option for a narrator to buy, I would say try a different narrator.

Again, this BOOK is fabulous. And the narrator had a good voice - she just needs consistancy when she gets to exciting dialogue in the story because the changing accent is so jarring and annoying.

I'M EXCITED!

It is wonderful that Audible is finally offering up this excellent series. I can't wait until further books are released!

I waited for years for this book to be Narrated.

I wish they had found a narrator worthy of the job. A story is told, but it isn't anywhere near as entertaining as when I've read it myself over the years. Rune does not come alive for me.

This story is simple, easy, an escape that soon is with friends. Buy the paper copy or even digital first. Get the most out of it.

Loved it!

A great story that I read years ago. And Christa Lewis is a fabulous narrator. I look forward to listening to the rest of the books in the series.

A nice simple Bardic Tale

I remember absolutely loving this book, but upon listening 30yrs later, I see all the narrow statements and simple beliefs. Certainly good for preteen, young adult and fluff reading, and you will definitely want more, but don't come in thinking you will find epic magics and complex stories.

Rune's story up until she finds herself paying taxes is probably my favorite part of the entire book. It gets a bit muddy and slow in the final third of the book, but still a decent story overall. Christa Lewis does a nice job of reading this story out. I can't wait to get to the next one!

Good story

I read the first book a very long time ago. I have moved over to audiobooks so I can harder, walk, or just hang and listen to a book. I loved this book when it originally came out and really enjoyed is while gardening. It kept me moving!

good narrator

love this story, I have read it many times. loved the audio version . will probably listen to it again.

I waited for this to come to Audible

I read this book many, many years ago, and I loved it.

Unfortunately, I returned it as I just couldn't handle the narration.
