About this listen

‘Grabbed me and refused to let go’ George R.R. Martin

SOMETIMES A GIRL IS TOUCHED BY MOTHER WAR
Thorn lives to fight. But she has been named murderer by the very man who trained her to kill.

SOMETIMES A GIRL BECOMES A WARRIOR
Fate traps her in the schemes of Father Yarvi, sending her across half the world to seek allies against the ruthless High King.

SOMETIMES A WARRIOR BECOMES A WEAPON
Beside her is Brand, a young warrior who hates to kill. A failure in his eyes and hers, he has one chance at redemption.

AND WEAPONS ARE MADE FOR ONE PURPOSE
Must Thorn be a tool in other hands or can she carve her own path? Is there a place beyond legend for a woman with a blade?

Good engaging Abercrombie story as always, well written and an enjoyable read. Not as riveting as the blade it’s self etc but strong worth the read

Great story as always with Abercrombie. Though. The sound production of the narration is the challenge here. So many harsh s sounds that could have used a better handling I post or a re-recording makes this series often rough to the ear. Shame on a decent voice acting effort.

Sound production lets it down
