The Silver Sword

The auburned-haired O'Connor women share a bond far deeper than their striking physical appearance: These courageous, high-spirited women all push against societal limits in this exciting historical, romantic novel that spans generations and countries.

It is said that as Cahira, daughter of the great Irish king Rory O'Connor, lay dying of a wound from a Norman blade, she beseeched God that others would follow her calling. To Kathleen O'Connor, Cahira's story was nothing more than a fable--until research divulged that the tale was true. As a stunned Kathleen realizes that she herself bears the mark of Cahira, she wonders if she is destined to continue the legacy.

To uncover the answers, Kathleen delves into the past to find the truth about the Heirs of Cahira O'Connor. It is a journey that carries her across generations, from the battlefields of 13th-century Ireland to the castles of 15th-century Prague, and through a past filled with peril, courage, vengeance, love, and sacrifice beyond anything she has ever known.

Beautiful story

Again, once I started listening, I didn’t want to stop. You can really see and feel this story. I was right there with the characters the whole way through.

Very interesting story.

Did not care for the virtual voice would rather hear a real voice. Story was good

I’ll stick to real voices

The narration was ok. Just ok. I wouldn’t pay for it again. Sometimes the inflections were off. I had to think about it several times when there could have been different meanings because the voice was pretty much flat even though each character had a different tone.

The Silver Sword

I liked the story and the historical context. But I was not a fan of the virtual voice acting.

Great Story once I could get over the reading

I learned to ignore the virtual voice after a while but then I would wince anytime there was a mis pronunciation or weird inflection. Great story, just wish a real person was reading it.
