In the tradition of heroes

Add Paksenarrion (an elfin name) to the pantheon of my heroes. In my review of Sheep Farmer's Daughter, Book 1 of The trilogy Deed Of Paksenarrion, I marveled at Moon's treatment of military issues and her integration of men and women in positions of leadership and of lesser rank. As I read the trilogy, Paks grew on me. I still feel that more character development a la George R. R. Martin and Terry Goodkind, would have fmade the trilogy a richer experience. This said, the trilogy is all about Paks, a remarkably human hero. I was in continual suspense about her fate until near the very end. But Moon does not kill off characters as Martin does. Instead, Moon wraps a gripping and at times spell binding tale around the development of her lead character, Paksenarrion Dorfan's Daughter. A well done first trilogy, in my opinion I am richer for having read it.

Strong female heroine

This is my favorite book. I am so glad it is on Audible. Fell in love with it as a pre-teen. A must read for young women. The narrator does an excellent job with the different characters and accents. This is the 3rd book in The Deed of Paksenarrion trilogy by Elizabeth Moon. :)

I love these books and all are read aloud so well!

I absolutely love this book the story is so wonderful ! enjoy! all three books in this series are so worth it!

Best Paladin Story Ever!

I absolutely loved this book. The epic climax of this trilogy didn't dissappoint at all!

Great read about the care and feeding of a paladin

I loved this book and this series. I have read it in print several tea and the performance brought it to life.

Pure Paled in Gold

One of the best series I've ever read. Packs is a hero for all times.

best female hero story

strong female hero storys are hard to find but this story is one of the best

Good, but a much different flavor

it was good and well written, but far far more politics as a posed to action are involved and was a struggle foe me to see it through. worth the read to finish of the series and resolve pakses story.

I almost like this more than Harry Potter

I have been a hardcore Harry Potter fan since third grade. I'm 32 years old, and this book Trilogy is fantastically written beautifully performed Jennifer Van Dyke is amazing. I love listening to this book, I listen to it all the time I think I've listened to it eight times and I've read it on the Kindle and in person. I just have to say it's a beautiful book well done

Great Series

Wow, this is a broad, far reaching story! A fun twist that surprised me. Paks has come a long way since she left her childhood home.
