A novelization of the 1993 RPG Betrayal at Krondor

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Any fan of the author or fantasy in general, will appreciate this book. Even if you are not familiar with the World of Midkemia, this serves as a good introduction to it. You will want more afterwards.

What did you like best about this story?

If you have played the video game to this book, this is an excellent way to relive the story and also gain more insight into it. As I listened, images from the game I played so many years ago came back to me. Lovely for nostalgia.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did feel great sorrow at certain parts, no spoilers here, but i wished certain things could have been different. I grew to care about the characters and their well being very much.

Any additional comments?

In the beginning of my listening, I did feel Mr. Joyce was reading a bit slowly for my taste, had to speed it just a little bit, and that rounded things out for me in regards to the performance of Mr Joyce. 1.05x was my sweet spot.

Middle bad. ending good

bogs down in the middle into incomprehensible territory almost enough to make me want to give up on it. however, I'm glad I stuck around until the ending as it was pretty enjoyable
