About this listen

Considered by the author to be his finest work yet, this is a novel of realistic detail, heartfelt emotion, and dazzling imagination that builds a world listeners won't want to leave and spins a tale they won't want to end. In a town of amazing magicks, where the real and the imagined live side by side and the Faerie of legend know the automatons of the future, Time sees all - but even he cannot escape the prophecy of James Hart's return, which can only mean the death of Shadows Fall.

Love SRG - but hate this narration

Read all his works and was looking forward to this rendition, but just couldn’t get past the slow southern US drawl of this narration.

Delightful narrative!

This remains at once one of the most delightful and one of the most disturbing books I have read...or listened to; as I have done both, suffice it to say I'm sure to do so again! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did!

Brilliant and beautiful

Simon R Green never disappoints. This is one of his best. An epic tale with all of his themes, magical and beautiful.

Great story but

This is a great story but the narration wasn’t the greatest. I had to keep changing the volume to be able to make out one character or moment then quickly lower it for the next

Narrator ruined it

struggled to finish. I tried over several months to get into it. I love Son R. Green's other books.

Narrator ruined entire story

I loved everything else by Green. The narrator was monotone with very little ability to narrate different characters. I got 10 hours into it and gave up from boredom. It might be a great story, but if this was the first by Green I read I would never had read another. Plus, Choosing an American speaker with a southern accent is a ridiculous choice for a tale so intimately connected to the Nightside in London.

This is my favorite author but…

I hate the ending to this story Spoilers: everyone dies and then magical happy ending everything is ok and happy again forever. What the hell? And the narration was somnambulant at best.
