The Nathaniel Starbuck Chronicles: Book One

De: Bernard Cornwell

Narrado por: Andrew Cullum

A riveting and compelling account of Nate's initial Civil War experience—its battles, romances and divided loyalties

When Richmond landowner Washington Faulconer snatches young Nate Starbuck from the grip of a Yankee-hating mob, Nate is both grateful and awed by his idealistic rescuer. Turning his back forever on the life he left in Boston, Nate agrees to join the newly formed Faulconer's Legion, even though it means fighting against his native North.

But Nate's dilemma is only one of many within the Legion. Faulconer's own son cannot bring himself to fight, while his daughter's cheating fiancee plots for control of the Faulconer family fortune. As they come together to march into battle, the men are prepared to start a war…but they aren't ready for how they—and the nation—will be forever changed by the oaths they have sworn for their beloved South

Entertaining

Engaging and informative. Great narration. Depictions of the Civil War were interesting. Will check our sequels.

The story immediately pulled me in.

Wonderful character development. Couldn't put down. I am ready to start book two in this series.

slow burn

it takes awhile to get into the book I found myself drifting and having to rewind in the beginning but it gets really good so worth it

Slow to start but worth the wait.

It took me a while to get into it, but from reading other series by this author I knew I'd enjoy it once all the characters were developed and the storyline started to unfold. I didn't care for the didn't character voices by the performer so I think that distracted me. Look forward to the rest of the series now, though.

Bad narrator good story

If you can get past the terrible narration it’s pretty good. Pretty standard if you have read any of Cornwell’s other books.
