"I love this series! Well written, great characters and a fantastic example of world building.To top it off, Grover Gardner’s always solid performance and the excellent production by Blackstone Publishing make these books a wonderful listen.I used to be a bookworm. Health issues interfere with my reading. Being able to lie back, close my eyes and just take in the story is a joy. Thank you to all who make this possible."
