Listeners first met Anna Marshall in The Soprano Sorceress, when she wished to be anything other than a music teacher and singer in Iowa - this was before she was pulled into the world of Erde, where her gift of song became a gift of magic. Her musical ability has since given Anna influence, control, and the potential to be an enormously powerful sorceress.

Now, as the regent of Defalk, Anna must battle two men who would destroy her and claim Defalk for their own.

Critic reviews

"Modesitt's deceptively simple prose and true-to-life characters add a realistic touch to an epic tale of magic, love, and war." ( Library Journal)

I love the story, setting, characters, conflicts everthing but for one HUGE,glaring and annoying Detail..and.is ever present......

In the midst of this alternate dimension, what could have possesed the author to put a character, named, "Jim Bob"..worse future "Lord Jim Bob".. the pepple are descibed as speaking kind of old English/Germanic, language,in a narrated story!

I am over 70 hours onto this saga, and I swear, it is sp irritating, and incongruous that I am ready to just quit listening.

The name suggests a redneck,country character out of the backwoods , spitting tobacco and wearinf plaid flannel shirt. in America, not a magical feudal civilization..


Perhaps it is appropriate in a feudal setting, but I have not ever read any reference, and it seems. way out of place and time to me.

It ruins an otherwise well written tale.

Very Bad Choice, IMO.

One Big problem for me.....2 stars reduced because...

Continuation of a predictable storyline. The reader looses some effectiveness trying to effect male vocal tones, and still, the term is VOCALEEZ, not vocalize. Tantor Media, please consider technical advisors for your readers.

good enough, not wonderful
