Acerca de esta escucha
Viking raiders destroyed Wilda's home. She witnessed the murder of her mother and would have been killed herself if it weren't for the Viking boy Einar, who saved her from his ruthless brother. The blood and murder left Wilda cold and shorn of feeling.
Eight years later, the heathens return for Wilda. As a captive in the Viking village, she finds protection and silent comfort in the man who once gallantly saved her.
Einar has been cursed to silence by his brother. With the dark net of his brother's power cast over their village, silence is a small price to pay for his family's safety. But Einar is immediately drawn to Wilda, and the need to protect her from his brother awakens his Viking courage. Can Einar break his brother's curse in time to save the village and the woman he loves?

Historia
In a land of mountains and mist, tradition and superstition, Languoreth and her brother Lailoken are raised in the Old Way of their ancestors. 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 is a tale of ghosts, of madness, of revenge - of old alliances giving way to new intrigues. Denmark is changing, shaking off its medieval past. War with Norway is on the horizon. And Hamlet - son of the old king, nephew of the new - becomes increasingly entangled in a web of deception - and murder. Beautifully performed by actor Richard Armitage ("Thorin Oakenshield" in the Hobbit films), Hamlet, Prince of Denmark takes Shakespeare’s original into unexpected realms, reinventing a story we thought we knew.

Miss Marple encounters a compelling murder mystery in the sleepy little village of St. Mary Mead, where under the seemingly peaceful exterior of an English country village lurks intrigue, guilt, deception and death. Colonel Protheroe, local magistrate and overbearing land-owner is the most detested man in the village. Everyone—even in the vicar—wishes he were dead. And very soon he is—shot in the head in the vicar's own study. Faced with a surfeit of suspects, only the inscrutable Miss Marple can unravel the tangled web of clues that will lead to the unmasking of the killer.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Viking's Sacrifice to be better than the print version?
By and large I tend to enjoy the print versions of books more than the audio edition. That's because I hit a slew of bad narrators. For example David Eagleman's reading ofCompelling tale brought to lif amazing narrator

What made the experience of listening to The Viking's Sacrifice the most enjoyable?
The way Amanda Cobb read the book, did that I gave it a chance. And I do not regret. If you just want to sit back and enjoy a good story, this could be the book. I enjoyed it.What other book might you compare The Viking's Sacrifice to and why?
I actually think this book is the first, i have listened to, which is about a kidnapped girl who is saved by another. It always used to be the kidnapper and the girl who falls in love with each other. So i can't compare it.Have you listened to any of Amanda Cobb’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No this is the first book, but she did a great job. She has a pleasant voice to listen to.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Every time Einar being ridiculed by his siblings and people. And when his faithful horse is sacrificed.Any additional comments?
Although the book was not quite as I expected, I was pleasantly surprised.But I would not use a credit. Buy it when it is on sale.
The book was ok, but lacked more romance

Where does The Viking's Sacrifice rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
At the top of the list due to the narrator's pleasant voice and her ability to make characters come alive.Who was your favorite character and why?
Wilda and Einar due to their ability to survive against all odds.What about Amanda Cobb’s performance did you like?
The way she was able to differentiate the characters with her voice and convey their emotions.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Several -- particularly all those moments of quiet desperation!Any additional comments?
Ms. Cobb has the talent for bringing characters alive with her voice and sweeping the listener into their world. I would like to hear her narrate more books -- all genres -- and lend her skills to various series.The Viking's Sacrifice

Where does The Viking's Sacrifice rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
In the middle of the pack. The story was beautifully delivered but the story itself could have used more tightening - a lot of repetition of the underlining themes!How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Less repetition of key concepts (it's understandable for a few repetitions to happen, it just felt a little like beaten a dead horse in certain instances!). More conversation between the characters.What about Amanda Cobb’s performance did you like?
She gave incredible life to the characters and availed each one of them a very unique voice. This latter point is driven home most especially in the parts of the book where dialogue occurs between characters. This for me made an average story a more enjoyable experience because one was able to empatize andIf you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Wilda, Run!"Lord have mercy, you're a cold one!!!"

Amanda Cobb is consistently charming and wonderful. Every performance is energetic and articulate - her narration drives the story forward. The detail she gives each of the characters is particularly noteworthy. I may have lost interest in this book if it weren't for Ms. Cobb's engrossing manner. She is a keeper - I hope to hear more from her soon!Great Narrator!
