A Crack in the Rock: The Edge of the Sword Series

De: Amber Gabriel

Narrado por: Peter Kenyon

Why does no one understand her? All Sashia wants is to learn, but she is constantly told to stop asking questions and mind her own business. There must be some purpose for her insatiable curiosity. The workings of the human body fascinate her - if only she could learn more! Could injuries be better treated and death itself avoided with a more thorough knowledge of anatomy?

When an itinerant healer and his wife discover Sashia and offer her an apprenticeship, she jumps at the chance. However, life holds even more unexpected twists as she catches the eye of the crown prince of Berush. Will Sashia be able to pursue her career as a healer, or will handsome Prince Cyrus change her plans? With her heart torn between two great passions, which will she choose?

Life is uncertain, and Sashia soon finds some things are out of her control. She struggles to shape her own destiny in a patriarchal society where polygamy is legal and women are subject to their father or spouse.

Slight of frame, but fierce in heart, Sashia will need every ounce of strength she possesses, and the wisdom and support of friends and allies, to endure what her future holds. What other obstacles must she overcome to live her dreams and find happiness?

good ahead. Listen to it.

Embarking on a literary exploration, I stumbled upon A Crack in the Rock's audiobook. Despite being outside my usual genre, I was captivated from the outset. The masterful storytelling weaved suspense and action, immersing me in a thrilling journey. The allure of the opening paragraph pulled me deeper into the narrative, anticipating each twist. Pulse-pounding action scenes and well-developed characters kept me engaged throughout. Though unfamiliar territory, I cherished the unexpected connection to the characters and their triumphs. As the audiobook reached its climactic end, I was left both satisfied and yearning for more. I eagerly await the next chapter in Amber Gabriel's brilliant series. A literary adventure worth embarking upon!

Peter Kenyon is a top-notch narrator and performer.

My kitchen is spotless!

I typically listen to audiobooks when cleaning and doing other chores. A Crack in the Rock is so engaging and action-packed, my kitchen is more organized and spotless than it’s ever been! Great job Amber Gabriel in creating dynamic characters, unpredictable plots and action packed adventure!

Loved this book!

A Crack in the Rock was well written and entertaining. I loved the narrator’s voice for the king. I was reminded of Sean Connery. The most interesting thing about this story (without giving anything away) is the new perspective I gained through the eyes of the main character. There were several aspects that made me feel as if I were in Old Testament Israel as an eye witness. Loved it!

Drew me in at every turn

I am not usually a historical/period fan. But wow this drew me at every turn especially the details of the interpersonal relationships and struggle with age old customs.

Sashia the feminist!!

I received a free copy of this audiobook, and here’s my honest opinion: I’m hooked. This is my first fantasy/action romance read in a while. I have to say it was so well written I was anxious to predict what was going to happen next with Sashia. From the beginning she has you rooting for her as you see her desire to learn and do good in the world. She’s the perfect mix of rebellion, strength, and vulnerability. Gabriel put so much detail into developing her character I felt like we were friends! Together we were studying medicine and politics trying to solve Berush’s problems. I enjoyed seeing her relationships evolve. Especially with the father of Cyrus. She isn’t afraid to ruffle some feathers in order to bring about change. I also would recommend listening to the audiobook on Audible. I was impressed with the voices and character changes. Looking forward to listening to more books written by Gabriel!
