Legends II: Volume II

New Short Novels by the Masters of Modern Fantasy

De: Diana Gabaldon, Terry Brooks

Narrado por: Simon Prebble, Charles Keating

Fantasy fans rejoice! Seven years after writer and editor Robert Silverberg made publishing history with Legends, the acclaimed anthology of original short novels by some of the greatest writers in fantasy fiction, the long-awaited second volume is here.

Each of the best-selling writers represented in these selections from Legends II returns to the fantasy universe he or she made famous throughout the world. Whether set before or after events already recounted elsewhere, whether featuring beloved characters or compelling new creations, these masterful short novels are both mesmerizing stand-alones, perfect introductions to the work of their authors, and indispensible additions to the epics on which they are based.

Diana Gabaldon turns to an important character from her Outlander saga, Lord John Grey, in "Lord John and the Succubus", a supernatural thriller set in the early days of the Seven Years War.

Terry Brooks adds an exciting epilogues to The Wishsong of Shannara in "Indomitable", the tale of Jair Ohmsford's desperate quest to complete the destruction of the evil Ildatch...armed only with the magic of illusion.

Mixed Feelings

I did not enjoy the Cabaldon story at all. However the Terry Brooks story was fantastic. One out of two ain't bad

Review for indomitable

For me indomitable started on section 6. I didn't like that the chapters (sections) didn't have names,only numbers, so I had to search for terry brooks' book, but just like the rest of his series I was very happy with the story once I located it. It's a very short story that takes place two years after the wishsong book. If you like the book series you should give this one a shot, I don't think you will be disappointed, or at least I wasn't.

good Story, bad narration

I'm not a fan of the narrator. I don't like the way he does the voices, nor his pronunciation of names/words.

Skippable

I picked this up for the Indomitable short story as I am listening through the Shannara series. This story seems to be backstory for the graphic novel that was created. Adds nothing to the existing story and if you skip it you'll never feel like you missed something. The narrator was just alright. I did attempt to listen to the other story in this book since I paid for it and it was terrible. Gave it 30 minutes and that's 30 minutes of my life I'll never get back...

didn't like the first story about a bi man in the
