Singing

Lovely narration, but the singing voice is terrible really terrible. The book itself is wonderfully written.

A Lion's Heart

Rowan Hood's friend Lionel is a minstrel, a singer, a harp player who calls people "my dear" and does not raise his hands or use a weapon for fear of scarring and breaking them as his father the "Lionclaw" has done.

For all his height he lets himself be called a coward rather than fight and his father loathes him enough to put a price on his head for acting a fool. Lionel though knows his act is up and he's putting Rowan and his friends in danger, so he leaves her the silver ring that marks him as part of her band and sets out to part ways.

Yet when he learns that Rowan has fallen into the hands of their enemies he finds the lion's strength he's named for and born from had never left him.
