The story is good. The editing terrible.
Revisado: 12-03-22
I enjoyed the narrator and the story, but there are several - lots - of places where the editor completely missed repeating phrases. Two or three sentences would be played twice, and that's a bummer when you're trying to stay into a storyline.

Virtually all human societies were once organized tribally, yet over time most developed new political institutions which included a central state that could keep the peace and uniform laws that applied to all citizens. Some went on to create governments that were accountable to their constituents. We take these institutions for granted, but they are absent or are unable to perform in many of today’s developing countries—with often disastrous consequences for the rest of the world.

Few forests, but lots of trees

my review is arbitrary
Revisado: 08-12-21
I just simply couldn't stand how the narrator said 'political' ... which wouldn't have mattered in any other book.

But in Scotland, a new religion is rising, one that brings disruption, bloodshed, and riot. And even as her family faces the burgeoning forces of Christianity, the Anglo-Saxons, bent on colonization, are encroaching from the east. When conflict brings the hero Emrys Pendragon to her father’s door, Languoreth finds love with one of his warriors. Her deep connection to Maelgwn is forged by enchantment, but she is promised in marriage to Rhydderch, son of a Christian king.

It has been a very long time since I read/listened to a book that held my attention as this one did.
I found myself thinking about it all the time, wondering what was coming next. This is a wonderful new version of the legend of Arthur.

Have you ever seen a planet invaded by rampaging space mutants from another dimension or Nazi dinosaurs from the future? Don't let this happen to you! Rifts happen, so you should be ready when universes collide. A policy with Stranger & Stranger can cover all of your interdimensional insurance needs. Rated "Number One in Customer Satisfaction" for three years running, no claim is too big or too weird for Tom Stranger to handle.

Revisado: 07-14-19
Alright, I might be the exact target audience for this work, but it is absolutely hilarious the whole way through! I love Tom's insistence on quality customer satisfaction. And the Conservative mindset makes it!
Please listen to this - it is perfection.

Love this whole series! She does an excellent job portraying men and women working closely together - bonding - without the silly romance a lot of writers feel they need to include. Get this book and the others in the series!

Listening despite the narrator
Revisado: 05-16-19
I really like this author, and her other series narrators are great. This one, though, is super annoying. Every character is raspy; her women are all either whiny or butch, and her men are nasal. I'm really not a fan of this narration at all.
Despite that, I enjoyed this book and bought the next in the series, even though it's got the same narrator. I might just have to buy a paper book, though, if this keeps up.

I really tried to like it...
Revisado: 02-28-19
I wanted to give this author a chance. I wanted to see it through with the narrator. I did listen to the very end, but I didn't enjoy the story or the narration.
This reader treated every comma as a full stop, and it was extremely jarring to follow. There was very nearly no differentiation between characters, so trying to keep them straight was virtually impossible.
The story was unbelievably predictable, and the supposed back stories for the main characters were ridiculously contrived. A cop whose child was kidnapped and still missing in a foreign country?? Another who was a swinger whose spouse was murdered by a spurned lover??
I'm just not a fan.
