You must listen to Armageddon's Children (Book 1) first! It sets up everything, but then you'll need this one as well.
I am also a long time audible listener, and I have to agree with other reviewers about the narration of The Elves of Cintra. Dick Hill was an excellent narrator for Armageddon's Children! He managed a very subtle and realistic Native American accent for one of the characters - it sounded like a separate/different reader he was so good. I was very disappointed when I realized Phil Gigante had replaced him. I thought I would get used to it, and the arbitrary and inconsistent use of a quasi-british accent (why british?) - for some members of the Elf family - it was off putting, but was not the worst part. His pronunciation of words like 'sense' sound like 'since', and 'descent' becomes 'descint'. At least he's consistent about it, but I found it jarring each time. Maybe if this was a tale of the old west, it wouldn't bother me. But come on, this is a professional narrator.
GIT a voice coach, and fix it!
His reading of the fun and entertaining story by Terry Brooks was not all bad, he was able to develop a great deal of dramatic effect with the many action/suspenseful sections, but then he'd say 'injun' instead of 'engine', and I'd think of how great Dick Hill did with that Native American 'Injun' voice - and it'd pull me right out of the story.
Mr. Brooks' book deserves more than 3 stars, but not with the narration....
