This series was very enjoyable. The narrator was exceptionally consistent in voice for the various characters, making the book come to life. I had purchased this for my boys (ages 10 - 22) to listen to on long trips. As they would play over the car stereo, I got interested and even my wife has been excited to share this adventure with our boys. Another success for John Flanagan.

The beginning is a little confusing as the 3rd book does not pick up where the 2nd one left off.

John Flanagan provides yet another page turning saga featuring the boys in the Heron Brotherband. Even better than the first two books, the boys are shown to be a true team. The addition of Lydia to the crew is wonderful. This team of “misfits” show that everyone truly can be a vital team member!
The person that narrated it was amazing at voicing all of the characters in this!
Love JOHN Keating's reading, as with all his other readings in this series and the Ranger's Apprentice books. There is a skip in tracks at the end of Ch. 32, which was avoided by manually selecting Ch. 33.
John Flanagan's series are interesting and have dialogue that will please young readers with its sarcasm and humor.
Wonderful story and worth listening to but there are a few audio glitches that can be a bit confusing especially near the tail end of the story.
This was a good book and story I would recommend it to others. Looking forward to the next story
