‘He’s called a master storyteller. Really he’s cleverer than that’ TELEGRAPH

‘A reminder of just how good a writer he is’ SUNDAY TIMES

‘Nobody in the world does this better than Cornwell’ Lee Child

This is a magnificent and gory work' Daily Mail

'The historical blockbuster of the year' EVENING STANDARD

‘A runaway success’ OBSERVER

‘A master of storytelling’ SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

This is typical Cornwell, meticulously researched, massive in scope, brilliant in execution’ NEWS OF THE WORLD

The story line is pure Cornwell, all great characters and fantastic storylines couched in fabulous world building! Many great characters that are incredibly well written. The voice acting is mostly sensational, Mr Keeble's accents are spot on, with one set of excpetions... the ladies are a bit hard to listen to in a falsetto that given the narrators masculine gravelly voice is un-intentionally comedic. But regardless a great actor

Superb Series and mostly superb Actor!

If you could sum up Enemy of God in three words, what would they be?

Epic, exciting, addictive

What about Jonathan Keeble’s performance did you like?

I thought he did a good job on the Winter King, but some of the Monty Python-esque women's voices were a bit awkward. Here though, he really comes into his own - more relaxed and reading it almost as if he wrote the book himself such is his understanding of the material.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Both, but it doesn't take much to make me do either!

Any additional comments?

I'm halfway through the audio version of the final book in the trilogy and it has to be said this one, Enemy of God, is the best in the series by some way. It really had me wanting to keep listening especially during the middle section as it was so exciting (and I had read the books, twice, years ago so I had an idea of what happened anyway)!

Best of the trilogy.

Great story all through looking forward to the final instalment.
Although some have complained about the performance I've enjoyed Keeble's narration.

Perhaps Cornwell's finest
