Publisher's Summary

A thief, a lover, and a toymaker; drawn together by fate, unlikely champions against a powerful and remorseless enemy. When not fighting each other, they must confront a powerful lord and end his plan to unleash global violence. No problem. But behind the scenes, the immortal trickster is manipulating men like puppets, changing history for his own amusement. And as an ancient plan is set into motion, the trio is faced with events they do not understand and may not survive. 

Legacy is the first of an epic new series that combines fantasy and steampunk in an unforgettable novel set in Victorian England.

Sit Back and Enjoy

I always love this narrator and he did a great job with this one as well.
Great characters in this makes it an easy listen.

Not sure what this was supposed to be...

The story is poorly written the characters need to be developed through their actions instead of through dictation of the narrator. Plot is full of multiple mcguffins and Mary Sue's, The store jumps around from place to place the place frequently but rarely bothers to establish itself in any place. Also not sure why this is a steampunk story story there seems to be more magic and mysticism than even mention of steam punk. overall I think it should have been re-read by author before publishing as I doubt their plot points came of as intended or logically sensible. I have a hard time believing proper due diligence was paid here.

Great Book and Performance

Both the book Legacy and the Audio Performer were excellent. Keep my interest the hold time. Finished this book in two days. I followed the Audio Performer while reading along in the Book. He read every word - line for line in the books. His voice did not put me to sleep and keep my interested in the story. The Book Legacy is also an excellent book. Reminded me of the old days theater "Movie Cliff Hangers". This book is a great opening, because it introduces most of the main Characters for the series. I also recommend reading the entire "Legacy" series.

Great Narrator and decent story

I was given this Audiobook to give an honest review.

I feel Nigel is a great Narrator without question. The performance is fantastic.

Only problem is that the story didn't keep my attention. It has an interesting take from Mythology that does make for a decent story but, as I just stated I'd lose interest, thus the 3 star review of the story. Not that the story is poorly written, I just found myself drifting to other Audiobook and then coming back to this one.

Fantastic Story!

This is an awesome story! I can hardly wait to get at the next installment.

Awesome Narrator!

My husband and I listened to this book together. He is more of a fantasy fan than I. However, Nigel Peever’s narration was so amazing it kept me totally engaged.
Great all around!

fascinating fantasy

fascinating fantasy, although a bit slow in parts but the narrator makes up for it and keeps the story going in the end was very good!

Loved it!

Really enjoyed it, would love to see the story going on. Hopefully there will be a Part II.

Thoroughly Entertaining

A great story that was wonderfully brought to life by Nigel’s fantastic narration. Superb characterisations as is the norm with Nigel’s work.
I listen in the van whilst commuting and many times I’ve arrived at my destination and just sat there listening.
Loved it
