Gateway to Fourline

The Fourline Trilogy, Book 1

By: Pam Brondos

Narrated by: Lauren Ezzo

Years before, a gateway opened between their world and ours. Sending one young woman through may be the key to survival for the kingdom of Fourline.

Strapped for cash, college student Natalie Barns agrees to take a job at a costume shop. Sure, Estos - her classmate who works in the shop - is a little odd, but Nat needs the money for her tuition.

Then she stumbles through the mysterious door behind the shop - and her entire universe transforms.

Discovering there's far more to Estos than she ever imagined, Nat gets swept up in an adventure to save his homeland, an incredible world filled with decaying magic, deadly creatures, and a noble resistance of exiled warriors battling dark forces. As she struggles with her role in an epic conflict and wrestles with her growing affection for a young rebel, Soris, Nat quickly learns that nothing may go as planned...and her biggest challenge may be surviving long enough to make it home.

Simply written young adult/teen book

Many of the characters were lack luster and the majority of the story was pretty boring. It became more interesting towards the end.

Good story, fast paced and very enjoyable.

The story is interesting, well written and entertaining although the main character succeeds more by luck than intelligent action. I'm looking forward to reading the second book in the trilogy!

Enjoyed the story and will continue

I enjoyed the story and will continue on to the next installment. The ending was too... soap or 30s radio serial for me: "Tune in next week for the next thrilling installment" rather than wrapping up the story and letting the next book being an entirely new adventure. It brought down the overall achievement of the story so far.

That would be an editorial criticism however.

The author kept me interested and engaged.

Lastly, I'm starting to despair of the narration of many audio books. Too many times I inwardly groaned or cringed at the performance, accent, or interpretation of intent.

Great Adventure

Loved the characters and the fantasy of the story. Can't wait to hear book 2.

Great Book!

This book is great. It kept me interested the whole time. I listened to all 3 back to back. I would listen to 3 more if they are made.
