Captivating

The enchanting first novel in the Katherine Kurtz's epic Deryni world. Masterfully read to bring the characters to life.

Audio version of an old favorite

The Deryni books are a long time favorite of mine. As young Kelson takes the throne after his father's untimely death, unforeseen forces bar the way. Written in high fantasy style yet very approachable, this story begins a long series of excellent books. I was very happy to find it in audio format. The performance by Jeff Woodman is excellent, lending support to an already well-loved story.

Reread just as good as first time

Read these books when I was 17. Loved them then. Just Reread...still great! Worth it!

Awesome!

This is a favorite of mine and I loved listening to it! The sense of history and the majesty of Kurtz's world is not to be missed!

A series I always enjoyed

excellent performance enhances a plot featuring the eternal struggle between the weak and the powerful, between corruption and righteousness, encapsulated in a story about the forces of the magical and the mundane vying for supremacy. characters worth knowing.
