    Story
    (399)

    On the treacherous streets of Riverside, a man lives and dies by the sword. Even the nobles on the Hill turn to duels to settle their disputes. Within this elite, dangerous world, Richard St. Vier is the undisputed master, as skilled as he is ruthless--until a death by the sword is met with outrage instead of awe, and the city discovers that the line between hero and villain can be altered in the blink of an eye.

    Acacia says: "Ellen Kushner Owes me 30$"
    "Stunning. Something different for fans of fantasy."

    Story
    If you could sum up Swordspoint in three words, what would they be?

    Believable, captivating, and enchanting.


    What did you like best about this story?

    I loved the intricate details and descriptions set forth by the author. Not one thing is left out, and her cast of characters are all richly defined. You can -see- the world, instead of just imagining it.


    What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

    All of the narrators - Kushner, and guests, perfectly captured the nuances that make the characters human and believable. So many audiobooks glaze over those subtleties, which leaves a rather gaping hole. Not so with this work. Every one is done to excellence, hitting the nail on the proverbial head.


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

    Both. Always both. It's an emotional journey from beginning to end.
