Lord Edward's Archer

By: Griff Hosker

Narrated by: Marston York

Thirteenth century. Wales and England. To young Gruffyd, life has been unkind. Eking out a meagre living with his father, he has learned very quickly how to look after himself in the hostile borderlands. His father, an archer, has taught him well, and at 17 Gruffyd is a keen and able bowman. Young, loyal and skilled, it’s not long before Gruffyd finds himself following in his father’s footsteps, working as an archer in the bordering castle. But tragedy strikes when his lord commits a devastating deed, and Gruffyd is forced to make a life altering decision. This is the story of a young archer’s riotous journey from avenging outlaw to merchant’s bodyguard to, finally, the captain of archers for the heir to the throne.

Critic reviews

"Medieval adventure with the pace and power of a war arrow in flight. Griff Hosker has sold over a million books and I can see why!" (Matthew Harffy)

History

The resemblance to actual history and story structure along with closeness to reality. This writer keeps my attention always

interesting historical fiction a la Hornblower/Sharpe

good story with engaging character. seems very much like another story by the same author

Loved the first of this series.

Narrator great, book good. I should have learned from previous purchases to check Narrator for the following books in series. I did not! Heads up to all before you purchase the rest of the series. The Narrator changed in second book. Hard almost impossible to follow the different characters with new Narrator. Struggling now to get through second book. I am so disgusted with myself for wasting money.

Everything was good about this.

Great story and great narrator. All books should be this good. On to the next in the series now!

Quick pace

Enjoyed the story and reader, but too much bass added to the audio mix. More than any Audible title I’ve listened too. Sounded odd.
