Pathfinder's Way

A Novel of the Broken Lands

By: T. A. White

Narrated by: Christa Lewis

The Trateri are about to learn a vital lesson of the Broken Lands. Deep in the remote expanse where anything can happen, it pays to be on a pathfinder's good side. Nobody ventures beyond their village. Nobody sane, that is. Monstrous creatures and deadly mysteries wait out here. Luckily for the people she serves, Shea's not exactly sane. As a pathfinder, it's her job to face what others fear and find the safest route through the wilderness. It's not an easy job, but she's the best at what she does. When the people she serves betray her into servitude to the Trateri, a barbarian horde sweeping through the Lowlands intent on conquest, Shea relies on her wits and skill to escape, disguising herself as a boy to hide from the Warlord, a man as dangerous as he is compelling. After being mistaken as a Trateri scout during her escape, Shea finds herself forced to choose between the life she led and the possibilities of a new one. Her decision might mean the difference between life and death. For danger looms on the horizon, and a partnership with the Warlord may be the only thing preventing the destruction of everything she holds dear.

I did enjoy this in spite of flaws

The first time I read this the continuity issues were more easily ignored as I did enjoy the plot. However, upon reading this a 2nd time it's much more obvious. Things aren't consistent. Shea is supposedly the only one able to get the villagers to the highlands, but suddenly they can do it themselves. Is Shea tall or short, plain or pretty? How many times can you say warlord in 1 book? In one of the major parts of the book when they're off searching for a certain person they werent told who they were looking for. How were they supposed to know they found said person if they didn't know who they're looking for in the first place? They figure it out of course, but it shows that not a lot of thought was put into fleshing out flaws. I still enjoyed the book, I just wish they editing was more thorough. The narrator was good.

Great story, explicit content though

The narrator was very good! As for the story: I enjoyed it, though the love story felt forced and improbable. And the sex scenes are quite explicit and almost felt pornographic, so if that’s not your cup of tea, def skip this one. It definitely felt unnecessary.
In any case, the rest of the story is intriguing and the main characters are certainly interesting. I’ll be getting book 2!

Very much enjoyed

Started out really slow. I struggled through and was glad I did. Really loved the characters.

enjoyable book

While the narration was a bit distracting, the story was engaging and enjoyable. Worth listening to.

Fun!

This is a fun story. I enjoyed the romance and the journey as well.
