About this listen
Salvation, Rowena is told, lies to the North: in Culcrith, where her grandmother can save her from the curse. Her mother's farmhand, a young Egyptian man named Halim, is to drive her.
The trip isn't easy. Rowena is rebellious, spiky, and sees bad omens everywhere; Halim is reserved, quiet and prefers to play by the rules; the land is mysterious and treacherous, with people who have married old traditions with new prejudices. The pair's battle of wills may yet develop into an alliance, if they can only let their guards down and let the wild in.
“Had me gripped from start to finish ... timely, horrifying, and hugely entertaining.” - Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Dance Tree©2023 Nadia Attia (P)2023 W. F. Howes Ltd
The reader was very good when using her own accent but her Scots accents were so terrible I wondered if there was any point in bothering. It spoilt a lot of my enjoyment of the book’s climax.
Good story, terrible Scots accents.
