About this listen

Sonea, former street urchin, now a Black Magician, is horrified when her son, Lorkin, volunteers to assist Dannyl in his new role as Guild Ambassador to Sachaka, a land still ruled by cruel black magicians. When word comes that Lorkin has gone missing Sonea is desperate to find him, but if she leaves the city she will be exiled forever, and besides, her old friend Cery needs her help. Most of his family has been murdered - the latest in a long line of assassinations to plague the leading Thieves. There has always been rivalry, but for the last decade the Thieves have been waging a deadly underworld war, and now it appears they have been doing so with magical assistance.

I like most am a true Trudi fan and was excited to download and listen. This was also my first time listening to one of Trudi's books rather than reading. I was pleasantly surprised, although another review has said the narrator is awful, I would have to disagree he does a good attempt at getting into the book and portraying all the emotions needed.
I was a little disappointed with the book in regards to although I realise its a trilogy nothing really happens that excites which I thought all the other Trudi books did.

But all in all I enjoyed and am currently awaiting the download of book 2.

Book 1 - Building Well, Good Listen!!

The story is a great continuation of The Black Magician 20 yrs later. However the narrator is terrible, mispronounced namesvand poor performance from the original narrator who was good doing the magicians guilde trilogy.

Good continuation of previous trilogy but

Have loved Trudi’s books for a long time and this is no exception. The book just follows on beautifully

Great story

This book was fine, but it really didn't grab me, and I am not going to download book 2 right away. However, it was a good story and once you get used to the narrators voice it is well read. If you are at a loose end and after some fiction then this will do.

It was ok

I found it slow and basic. Also I found the narrator dreary. I dont think I will bother with book 2
