Acerca de esta escucha
From the dark fairy tale forests of Russia...
To the steamy intrigues of a Hong Kong opium den...
From ancestral secrets long hidden in a Paris mansion...
To the rolling, bloody hills of Ireland during the Troubles...
Trapped by circumstance and the events of his past in the USSR, Jamie Kirpatrick struggles to survive in a hostile environment where not all is as it seems and blood bonds are forged with enemies in order to survive.
In Ireland, Pamela and Casey Riordan attempt to live a normal life amid deceit, betrayal, and an unofficial war that claims more than just blood. Bequeathed a legacy by Jamie Kirkpatrick, they struggle to keep an empire intact but cannot know the surprises that await them.
Flights of Angels is not only historical fiction but equal parts political thriller, love story, and fairy tale. Richly embroidered with lush imagery, spanning continents and vastly different cultures, this is an epic tale of country and the turnings of the human heart.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 154
In this sweeping and powerful epic the journey begins in the "terrible beauty" of Northern Ireland during a time when conflict reigns and no one is spared from tragedy and sorrow, the time known as The Troubles. It is the spring of 1968 in Belfast and James Kirkpatrick has just lost his father under suspicious circumstances, Casey Riordan is released from prison after five years and Pamela O'Flaherty has crossed an ocean and a lifetime of memories to find the man she fell in love with as a little girl. All three lives are on a collision course with each other against the backdrop of the burgeoning civil rights movement and a nation on the brink of revolution. They come from disparate backgrounds - Jamie a wealthy aristocrat whose life is like an imperfect but multi-faceted jewel-brilliant, flawed and with a glitter that is designed to distract the observer. Casey, a card-carrying member of the Irish Republican Army, who must face the fact that five years away has left him a stranger, a misfit in his own neighborhood where not everyone is sympathetic to a convicted rebel. Pamela, who has come to Ireland in search of a memory and a man who may not have existed in the first place.

Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power—the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.

Young Hiram Walker was born into bondage. When his mother was sold away, Hiram was robbed of all memory of her - but was gifted with a mysterious power. Years later, when Hiram almost drowns in a river, that same power saves his life. This brush with death births an urgency in Hiram and a daring scheme: to escape from the only home he’s ever known. So begins an unexpected journey that takes Hiram from the corrupt grandeur of Virginia’s proud plantations to desperate guerrilla cells in the wilderness, from the coffin of the South to dangerously idealistic movements in the North.

From the day that old Nana Reja found a baby abandoned under a bridge, the life of a small Mexican town forever changed. Disfigured and covered in a blanket of bees, little Simonopio is for some locals the stuff of superstition, a child kissed by the devil. But he is welcomed by landowners Francisco and Beatriz Morales, who adopt him and care for him. As he grows up, Simonopio becomes a cause for wonder to the Morales family, because when the uncannily gifted child closes his eyes, he can see what no one else can - visions of all that’s yet to come, both beautiful and dangerous.

Flights of Angels
The Exit Unicorns series is a wonderful historical fiction series set in Ireland during the time of the Troubles. I have read all the books and am anxiously awaiting the next installment. The narrator brings this book to life and I am thrilled with how his voice and his subtle interpretations of the characters invokes the richly varied landscapes that this particular novel leads the listener into. Yet again, I’m not ready to come back from the magical kingdom that Cindy Brandner has created with her words and that Gary Furlong has lent his voice to interpreting this story

Beautifully told, engaging story <3
Matching the quality of Ms. Brandner’s storytelling with a voice particularly suited to the characters and moods, Gary Furlong’s audio presentation is varied and evocative. It is seamless when characters voices change as he effortlessly converses and narrates, or becomes mystical as suits the beauty of the storytelling from old Irish or Russian folktales or Jungian hero journeys that allow us inside a tortured mind. The magical wonder of ancient places and timelessness of a struggle for survival are beautifully felt as love manifests in so many ways.
As I will, I am sure, listen again and again, each time the depth of the story will reveal even more understanding of how well crafted and engaging it is, and how well suited a tale it is for such a telling!

A mult-layered tapestry
This is by far the most layered and complex of The Exit Unicorn series - stories within stories- all richly told in prose and translated into a verbal tapestry by the warm and compelling voice of Gary Furlong. We are left, as always, yearning for more.
Well done!

Pulls you in for an embrace to last a lifetime
This is such an incredible series. The character development makes me feel like I'm reading about dear friends. The historical context makes me feel as though I'm there, driving along back roads in a beast up Citroën praying there are no security checkpoints or gathered around a fire in the gulag to hear the end of the story that I've been waiting for weeks for.
I love the actor's voice, it's very natural even when he's portraying female characters. And who doesn't love that fabulous Irish lilt!

Epic storytelling! The narration is magical .
The next adventure with Cindy’s characters is epic. With each new book the narration gets more magical. The toothless elderly characters are hilarious. I love that it never feels like one person is playing every character. He does it with such ease and pizazz, or subtlety (whatever is needed) , especially when Jaime has his fever dream and the accents rapidly change. He’s on point! I love this story and can’t wait to see how it all plays out. I read this story first so hearing it as always reminds me of forgotten yet important details and turning points. The fairy house being one happy nougat! An Utterly fantastic and pleasant listen .

My favorite in the series
This was by far the best in the series. So much happening to our beloved Jamie, Pamela, Casey and Patrick. I'm not a literary critic but I read a ton of books. There have been so many times that I read a passage and wish I could read it to an expert just to say "isn't this incredible." We see and feel the effects of the troubles in Ireland and in this book the horrors of the Soviet Union prison, the expendability of people. The ugliness of greed and hate and then the beauty of human connections in the foulest of places. I love the fairy tales and the otherworldly connection that happened between Pamela and Jamie (and Casey was there too.) I think Gary is fabulous giving each character their own voice and accent. He does a great job. Waiting for In the Country of Shadows to become an Audible book. I of course have read all four and now have listened to them. Cannot wait for book 5.

Best One Yet!
Take a great story with awesome characters and mix it with a creative narrator and you’ve got a perfect audio book mix! I was waiting anxiously for this book to come out on audiobook as I couldn’t wait to hear the voices of the colorful, interesting characters from this story. It did not disappoint!!
