The Dreaming Tree

De: C. J. Cherryh

Narrado por: Gabra Zackman

The classic fantasy duology, combining The Dreamstone and The Tree of Swords and Jewels in an omnibus for the first time.

It was that transitional time of the world when man first brought the clang of iron and the reek of smoke to the lands which before had echoed only with fairy voices. In that dawn of man and death of magic, there yet remained one last untouched place - the small forest of Ealdwood - which kept the magic intact and protected the old ways. And there was one who dwelt there, Arafel the Sidhe, who had more pride and love of the world as it used to be than any of her kind.

But fear of the world of Faery ran deep in the hearts of men, and when Ciaran Cuilean, Lord of Caer Wiell, a man with Elvish blood in his veins, found himself the object of increasing distrust and suspicion from his men, his king, and even his own family, he knew he must once again put his humanity aside and return to Ealdwood.

For shadows of a newly awakened evil swarmed across both lands, and unless Ciaran reclaimed his haunted weapons from the Tree of Swords and joined Arafel, he would see this evil overtake not only the warm hearthstones of the mortal keeps but the silvery heart of Ealdwood itself....

Do Not Miss This Book!

First class fantasy novel! This not anything like her other Sci-Fi work. Really great story and perfect narration!

unsure

this book was confusing to me I had to start it twice. the narrator kept putting me to sleep. maybe this just wasn't my kind of book.

very good

Never knew about the last book. Delighted with the series and narrator. I listened twice as the narration and eriting were lyrical.

Loved it!

Been a while since I've enjoyed an audiobook this much. The narrator was great and the story made me feel like a kid again, with wonder at the world that could be.

what a beautiful book!

This is a truly timeless story, one I never tire of. I can listen to Ms. Cherryh's books over and over, they always make me feel hope.
