Resumen del Editor

In feudal England, Elizabeth Montwright barely escaped the massacre that destroyed her family and exiled her from her ancestral castle. Bent on revenge, she rode again through the fortress gates, disguised as a healer...to seek aid from Geoffrey Berkley, the powerful baron who had routed the murderers.

He heard her pleas, resisted her demands, and vowed to seduce his beautiful subject. Yet as Elizabeth fought the warrior's caresses, love flamed for this gallant man who must soon champion her cause...and capture her spirited heart!

A Favorite

Of my close to one thousand Audible titles, this would be in the top ten. I have listened to it hundreds of times and it still makes me smile. For the most part — Except for the rather graphic murder that takes place when when the castle is captured , it has a gentle humor. The hero is a big blustery character who was raised in the king’s castle from the age of six without a woman’s influence. The heroine was raised as her father’s son. This creates some misconceptions and conflicts.

Decent story, but ruined by the weak narrator

I've read the story in the past. It is a little slow to start but it's still a decent story. Somehow the narrator makes the hero sound like a weak, feminine character.

I am a huge Julie Garwood fan. I would recommend most of her books, even though some of the audiobooks don't have the best voice actors. but this one is now at the bottom of my list.

Excellent!!!!!!

A great book! Anything by Garwood is GREAT! Read Ransom if you can.I personally have read it 13 times.

Gentle Warrior

What did you love best about Gentle Warrior?

I truely enjoyed the story. The book kept you guessing as to what the outcome might be.

What other book might you compare Gentle Warrior to and why?

The Bride - as I feel why they are similar they are also totally different in the story line.

What about Anne Flosnik’s performance did you like?

I just truely enjoy Anne Flosnik in all audio books that I've come across

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes, but didn't have time!

Any additional comments?

I just enjoy all of Julie Garwood's writings.

Love The Book But Narration, Not So Much

This narrator seems to think that all men speak like Count Chocula. I have found that speeding up the audio makes her listenable, not great, but listenable.
I love Julie Garwood's stories.

Great story, horrible narration

Great story but will never purchase one with narrator again, she reads to slow and her voices are almost laughable

the same narrator as The Prize....

I was excited to see another unabridged novel by Julie Garwood on audible. I have read the book years ago and remember liking it. I downloaded it only to realize that it is the same narrator as The Prize. I don't think I can finish it. The narrator is bad. Really Bad! Make sure you listen to the sample before you purchase this audiobook.

Good book Annoying Narration

Where does Gentle Warrior rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I enjoyed the story and the way the charaters were developed throughout the book. This is the second Julie Garwood book I have listened to. The Bride was the first and was narrated by Rosalyn Landor who did a much better job that Anne Flosnik

What did you like best about this story?

I actually loved the story it had mystery, sex, murder and love, however I found difficult to get involved because of the performance...

What didn’t you like about Anne Flosnik’s performance?

I did not like Anne's performance at all. Anne Flosnik is too overly dramatic in her performances. The male voices in particular were terrible.

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

Anne Flosnik is too overly dramatic performance

Any additional comments?

Anne Flosnik needs a coach or someone to listen to her voice before the book is released.

The reader is irritating,

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The Narrator.

Would you be willing to try another book from Julie Garwood? Why or why not?

Yes, as long as Anne Flosnik wasn't reading it.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

How long can a person drag out the last letterr of the last word in a sentence? According to Anne, foreverrrrr and in a octave lower than the rest of the sentence. Had to keep rewinding to concentrate on the story because of the way she pronounced the words. Just plain irritating,.Herrrrrrrr owwwwwn wayyyyy ughhhhhh!!!!!

Was Gentle Warrior worth the listening time?

No, got three hours in and couldn't take the narrator anymore.

Any additional comments?

I don't usually write bad reviews, ( If you can't say something nice.) but I can usually make it to the end of a book too.

love,!!!

This is the first book I ever read and it is still one of my favorites to read! I love Geoffrey and Elizabeth, I love the story I loved it loved it loved it! wish there was another one too it.
