Narrado por: Dara Rosenberg

Drow god vs. Drow god! When Lolth and Eilistraee, two drow goddesses, compete for control of the dark elves of Faern, more than just the drow are caught in the middle. Though the drow will survive their game, what's at stake is the very nature of what it means to be a dark elf.

it didn't improve

The clumsy cadence and mispronounced words are just too distracting. If I weren't reading along with the narration, I would have given up.

the story

I love this Trilogy I read it in paperback 10 years ago or so and had no problem listening to it for a second time. well written and fast moving. if you love the drow and forgotten realms don't forget this one.

interesting story, terrible narration

Narrator has a weird cadence almost like she's reading to kindergartners.

Also features cartoonish level overacting in nearly every bit of dialogue.

Narrator constantly mispronouncing words.... "headless" of danger instead of "heedless" of danger... stressing the wrong syllable in "conversant"... can't even pronounce "penitent" correctly and that word gets used over and over.

Its outright bad, not what would be expected of a professional narrator. It seriously really distracts from what would otherwise be an interesting story.

Horrible narration

Why does it seem like the narrator is getting worse as the series progresses? Constantly mispronouncing words, using the wrong words, and just awful voices. And for goodness sake, it’s the title of the series, it’s “Penitent” not “Pentanent”!!

Great Story. Horrible Narration.

Loved the story and characters so much. The drow are my favorite race in all of Faerûn so I try to read anything and everything having to do with the dark elves. The narrator is the only downside. Not only does she mispronounce words she also interupts the story by butchering the flow of sentences and paragraphs. Many of the side characters sound like lost ignorant idiots. If you can ignore all the narration issues the book should be enjoyable. Just remember there are 3 books in this series and she narrates them all.
