Story
Eff was born a thirteenth child. Her twin brother, Lan, is the seventh son of a seventh son. This means he's supposed to possess amazing talent - and she's supposed to bring only bad things to her family and her town. Undeterred, her family moves to the frontier, where her father will be a professor of magic at a school perilously close to the magical divide that separates settlers from the beasts of the wild. With wit and wonder, Patricia Wrede creates an alternate history of westward expansion that will delight fans of both J. K. Rowling and Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances....

Great!
This is a story I have loved it since childhood! Everything was fantastic, and I loved that there was a full cast. Telemanns voice was a little doofy though, and I couldn't get over the comical nature of it. Besides that; I would absolutely recommend this book and narration!!

One bad voice
Any additional comments?
The voice of the character Telemane nearly ruined the audiobook. Unlike most odd voices I found this one got more annoying the longer I listened, rather than becoming used to it. Other than that the performance and story were just as good as the first book.

Wonderfully funny title
Patricia C. Wrede's Enchanted Forest Chronicles are an incredibly fun series. I love her wit, and the way she throws so many references to canonical fairytales into her writing in such an off-hand way. The characters that she has created with Mendanbar, Cimorene, and Kazul, not to mention Telemain, Morwen, and the cats, are some of the funniest and pleasantest that I have encountered in children's literautre.
I'm not a huge fan of full cast narrations as quite often they can be rather cheesy. In this case, however, the cast was wonderful. My only complaint is that not all of the character’s voices are the same from book to book. In some cases, this may not be a huge change, but in others (Cimorene and Kazul, for instance) it is very noticeable. Still, they all do an excellent job. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a light, humorous read - especially if you like fantasy or fairytales.

A great classic fantasy story
The performances are great apart from one. Telemaine sounds like a 1980’s stereotype of an annoying nerd— it’s excruciating to listen to him talk and he has a lot of dialogue. Compared to Antorelle, who is supposed to be an obnoxious minor threat, but has a pleasant voice. The casting should have switched those voice actors in my opinion.
4 stars for the story instead of 5 because of the very old-school feminism. I’ve always loved The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, though re-reading them now there are parts that are uncomfortably gender essentialist. And I’m not a fan of putting down other women (the silly airheaded princesses) in order to make Cimorene look good. The book was written in the 90s tho, so it’s pretty typical of the era I guess.

This is the second Audible book that I have paid for using my credit that I received a chapter as if a sample instead of the full book. There are free services out there. Fix this and give me my PAID FOR book or I will go to the Better Business bureau.
