Praise for Bridge of Dreams

“With a well-paced mystery, likable characters, and fascinating world building, this is a fun read.”—Booklist

“[Readers] will find the characters worthwhile and the story satisfying.”—RT Book Reviews

“Strong on world-building.”—Publishers Weekly

“One of Anne Bishop’s fascinating worlds...[She] has a wonderful way of creating new characters, new worlds that are mind boggling.”—The Reading Café

“An entertaining tale with an incredible vivid description of the Bishop mythos and a wonderful self-sacrificing hero...a super-fast-paced exciting thriller.”—Midwest Book Review

Story is excellent, narrator is not desirable

The narrator doesn't have a lot of variation between voices, so at times it made the story more confusing. Also, he has a tenancy to use nasally tones that, while good for evil characters, doesn't appropriate for some. He tends to think tough equals nasal. That said, this was one of the best books in this series for me in terms of story! I do recommend!

Culmination of Ephemera

What did you love best about Bridge of Dreams?

Not as dark as the Black Jewels novels, nor as bitter as Tir Alain, Ephemera retains the awareness of humanity's flaws, but approaches them with gentle humor.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The Shaman in Sanctuary. He is what everyone's favorite priest should be -- earthy, humorous,yet etherial.

What about Holter Graham’s performance did you like?

Holter Graham has a pleasing baritone that sometimes has slightly nasal overtones that remind one of northern native American's when speaking English.

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

Ephemera sometimes made me laugh, sometimes I cried. Mostly, it made me feel safe, like being at home.

Love This Author

I read these 3 books because I was told it was based on an interesting idea. If you like paranormal, read these. Different from other books I’ve read, which I would rate a 5 star, Black Jewel Series etc but I enjoyed these.

I have been waiting too long for Lee's Story

Where does Bridge of Dreams rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I love Ann's Ephemera Series and hoped we would see Lee's story. It brings to life real possibilities - not to mention imagination. Glorianna Belladonna's character is scary not to mention some of the other characters. Makes you want to see the light side win and root for them.

What other book might you compare Bridge of Dreams to and why?

The series is like none other that I have seen. Ann has a wonderful way of describing the world of Ephemera in this series.

Which character – as performed by Holter Graham – was your favorite?

Since book one I have liked the Shaman character on Belladonna's Island. I like Holter Graham as a Narrator - and is often the thing that tips the scale when I am not sure whether I want the book or not.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Lee had to let go of Belladonna and all those he loved to keep them safe.

Any additional comments?

If you haven't listened to books 1 and 2 I recommend listening to them first - this will make the story much more moving to listen to.

excellent

When is the next story coming available? I have enjoyed all of Anne Bishop's books.
